VESPOLI ANNOUCES NEW PARTNERSHIP WITH ECHO

February 6, 2021

New Haven, Connecticut- Echo Rowing, one of the world’s top open water recreational rowing shell companies, and Vespoli USA, a manufacturer of world class racing shells, are happy to announce their new partnership.  Vespoli will manufacture and distribute Echo Shells in North and South America.   Alex Thomson, Owner of Echo explained, “Vespoli with its 40-year tradition of building high quality racing shells is a perfect partner for us. Their technical expertise in racing shell composites and service throughout the region have been the gold standard in the business for a long time.”  Vespoli CEO, Dave Trond, is looking forward to the partnership and working with this new market. “We took one look at the Echo hull designs and the unique folding riggers and knew it would be a good fit for the market and a good complement to our current line of shells. Recreational and open water rowing is growing rapidly around the world.” The Echo is very stable, easy to row, and easy to store. It can be car topped and is durable enough to be launched from just about anywhere, public launch sites, lakes, rivers, or the beach. You don’t need a boat house! The Echo also makes a great training boat for clubs and schools.
