Colin is hitting the road once again for our sixth cross-continent delivery trip of the year! 🚚
This time he'll be making a full loop across North America!
If you've had a Whitehall rowboat delivered, there's a good chance you've met Colin. Friendly, knowledgeable, and always happy to chat, he genuinely enjoys meeting our owners and sharing their excitement as they take delivery of their new boat.
Our next North America-wide delivery trip departs in mid-September, giving Colin a well-earned chance to spend time with his family (and no doubt perfect a few new recipes!) before heading out again.
If you've been thinking about owning a Whitehall Spirit® rowboat, now is the time to reserve your delivery. Spaces are filling quickly, and this will likely be our second-to-last North America delivery run of 2026. Reserve your Whitehall Spirit® rowboat soon to lock in today's pricing. We've been advised of upcoming supplier price increases, so this may be one of your last opportunities to purchase at current prices.
And if you happen to see Colin and the Whitehall truck on the highway, don't forget to give him a wave! 👋

The Whitehall Spirit® Solo 14® is a boat we wish everyone could experience because it's hard to explain just how good it feels to row. Time and time again, we hear the same thing from new owners: once they start rowing, they can't stop.
We're passionate about the Solo 14® because it's a boat that gets used. It's lightweight, easy to launch, effortless to maneuver, and built from ultra-tough co-polymer that never needs painting, varnishing, or waxing. The less time you spend maintaining it, the more time you'll spend on the water.
Over the years, we've heard countless stories from owners who have transformed their health through regular rowing. Better fitness, improved mobility, reduced stress, and a reason to get outside almost every day. That's why we call the Whitehall Spirit® Solo 14® a life-changing boat. 🚣

How should you grip a sculling oar? 🚣
It might seem like a small detail, but proper hand and wrist position can make a big difference to your rowing technique, comfort, and efficiency on the water.
In this video, Whitehall’s CEO and co-founder, Harold Aune, demonstrates how to correctly grip a sculling oar and position your wrists to maintain good technique and help reduce unnecessary strain or injury.
Whether you’re new to slide-seat rowing or have been rowing for years, it’s always worth getting the fundamentals right.

The Whitehall Spirit® Tango 17® was built for adventure. Load it up with camping gear, fishing equipment, or everything you need for a weekend on the water, then point the bow toward the horizon.
With its exceptional carrying capacity, reassuring stability, and efficient hull, the Tango 17® is just as comfortable exploring remote coastlines as it is gliding across your local lake.
Here, Whitehall owners Harold and Marie are rowing their Tango 17® through the spectacular Broken Islands Group off Vancouver Island. 🚣

It's easy to see why the Whitehall Spirit® Solo 14® is our most popular rowboat.
Owners quickly discover that the Solo 14® is much more than an easy-to-own boat . Every row is a smooth, quiet escape, delivering a low-impact, full-body workout that builds strength, improves balance and mobility, and provides the mental clarity that only time on the water can offer.
Built from ultra-tough thermoformed copolymer, there's no painting, no varnishing, and no waxing, ever. It's UV-resistant, incredibly durable, and refreshingly low maintenance. Simply wipe down and it's ready for your next adventure. 🚣

Designed to be rowed together, the Tango 17® has a way of turning every outing into something memorable. Whether you're gliding across a calm lake at sunrise, exploring a quiet coastline, or sharing an evening row with family or friends, every stroke is better together.
The Tango 17® is an investment in shared moments on the water that will be remembered for a lifetime.

Here's a report from Stephen in Amagansett, New York... 🌅🚣
"Sunset row in my Whitehall Spirit® Solo 14® Gardiner's Bay, Amagansett, NY – 07/10/26

Our most popular Whitehall Spirit® rowboats are the Solo 14® and Tango 17®, and there's a reason you'll often hear both us and our owners call them life-changing boats. 🚣
That might sound like a bold statement, but it's one we've heard echoed time and time again.
We've seen people recovering from cancer rebuild their strength through rowing. We've watched owners transform their health with regular, low-impact exercise. And we've heard countless stories of people finding peace, clarity, and a renewed sense of purpose simply by spending time on the water.
A Whitehall Spirit® isn't just a rowboat. It's an invitation to move more, explore more, and reconnect with nature in a way that's gentle on the body and good for the mind.
Built from ultra-tough co-polymer, the Solo 14® and Tango 17® are the world's only co-polymer Whitehall rowboats—designed to provide virtually maintenance-free adventures on the water.

The Classic Whitehall Spirit® 17 is one of those rare boats that turns heads wherever she goes. Handcrafted with solid teak, custom-cast bronze fittings, and elegant lapstrake lines, she embodies a timeless style that's as captivating today as it will be decades from now.
As practical as she is beautiful, the Classic Whitehall Spirit® 17 rows effortlessly at 3–5 knots and inspires confidence in everything from sheltered lakes to open ocean swells.
Built to be enjoyed, not fussed over, her hand-rubbed teak requires only a few hours of care each year, ensuring she'll provide decades of memorable days on the waters and perhaps one day become a boat your grandchildren will row.
Some things are worth passing down. A Classic Whitehall Spirit® 17 is one of them.
We currently have one Classic Whitehall Spirit® 17 in stock. These boats are typically built to order, so opportunities like this are exceptionally rare. If you've been dreaming of owning one, this may be your chance to be on the water much sooner than you expected. 🚣
