How webegan
Entrepreneur Howard Winklevoss is the founder of RowAmerica, an organization dedicated to the advancement of the sport.
Watching his twin sons become dedicated and skilled rowers at the Saugatuck Rowing Association (SRA) in Westport, CT, inspired Winklevoss greatly and he immediately fell in love with the sport. In 1997, he started a rowing program at their high school in Greenwich, CT so other students could learn to row.
When the existence of the SRA was threatened in 1998 by the proposed sale of the club’s rented land for condominiums, Winklevoss started RowAmerica and formed a Club Division to purchase the land on which to build and manage a new club instead. The Saugatuck Rowing Club paved the way for the Greenwich Rowing Club in 2002 and the two clubs continue to be the heart of a thriving rowing community in the Fairfield County area with over 1,000 adult and junior members.
With two clubs and a combined fleet of 75 rowing shells from many different manufacturers to maintain, RowAmerica began to focus on the way shells are sold and serviced in the US.
Winklevoss, his rowing directors, and staff of fourteen American and international coaches, began to envision change. He met with Drew Harrison and met with designer Klaus Filter and the Xiong family of Flying Eagle Boat Company to lay the groundwork for launching WinTech Racing to make that vision a reality.
WINTECH Racing is now owned by Flying Eagle Boat company and is one of the largest boat builders in existence with a 500,000 square-foot state of the art manufacturing facility and worldwide distribution.
4 reasons to choose Wintech Racing
Proven Performance. Unparalleled Value.
This is the part of the spiel where we’re supposed to throw superfluous words at you like best, fastest, and ultimate. But we prefer real words like authentic, character, and service. Because when what you stand for is genuine, and built upon good people and practices, those other words, become more than words.
Proof is in the performance
Building a great boat comes down to three core fundamentals: time-honored design, premium materials, and construction standardisation. Every WINTECH we build capitalises on these elements to deliver a balance of resilience and hydrodynamic efficiency, resulting in an exceptional rowing experience year after year.
Value redefined

In November 2018, a major multi-million dollar renovation was completed at our 500,000 sq ft state of the art manufacturing facility. This investment was to ensure we not only complied with but exceeded new tougher environmental legislation and controls. Our core focuses were clean air, water and solar power.
