FLUIDESIGN Composites, Inc. is based in London, Ontario, Canada and has been producing quality racing shells since 2000. Gord Henry, the owner and president, spent five years working in the boat building industry before starting Fluidesign. His experience also includes one year at a composite aircraft manufacturing company managing a single scull rowing project.

Gord has been an avid rower for almost 30 years with Olympic (Seoul Korea 1988, 1x and 4-) and National Team experience. His background and knowledge allows him to know what rowers want and how to optimize boat design.

Considerable research went into the design of our shells. A very popular existing shape was refined in the bow, stern, and at the water line. These changes produced a single that was more stable with improved hydrodynamics, reduced wetted surface and better maneuverability. The core in the hull was eliminated making the shell far more durable. This decreased the maintenance required from every day use. A further advantage was gained by placing the rigger behind the rower.

Our Building Process has allowed us to produce shells of a very high quality, with unmatched customer satisfaction. Fluidesign has become the fastest growing boat company in the world with a competitive record equal to that of any other builder, and a growing reputation. The mission of Fluidesign is to produce the fastest, most durable and affordable shells in the industry. Our customers will attest to this.
