The Ultimate in Swiss Technology & Style
Stämpfli, founded in 1896, has always been at the forefront of introducing technology and innovation to racing boats. The development of the Stämpfli ST1 Lightweight Single in an Autoclave has been the most recent confirmation of Stämpfli leading the way in racing boat construction.
At Olympic and World Championship events Stämpfli boats, in the hands of Pertti Karpinnen from Finland, probably one of the most successful single scullers in the history of the sport, and others such as Sam Lynch from Ireland, have won time and time again.
Stämpfli boats have won many National Championships, National Regattas, National Heads, National trials and other Competitions such as the Armada-Cup 2007. Mahe Drysdale, World Champion single sculler, won the Armada-Cup 2007 on Lake Wohlensee, Switzerland in a Stämpfli ST1 and then went on to set a new record in the Stämpfli S1 in the Turin SilverSkiff 2007.
Stämpfli boats (with the exception of the ST All-Carbon Range) are constructed with approximately 90% carbon and 10% glass fibre. This results in the boats being fast, strong and durable. Stämpfli boats are substantially stiffer than most other racing boats being virtually a full carbon boat.
Stämpfli boats also have very high-quality fittings. All aluminium parts are hard anodised, the seats are carbon and the shoes are Adidas AdiStar or New Wave.
Stämpfli boats tend to be more suitable for those rowers aspiring to, or at, the higher levels of the sport.
