The Maas 24 is the boat of choice for many serious open water racers. It has won and set course records in most of the open water races in the United States since 1990.
Slimmer and more responsive than our Aero, this shell was designed specifically to be the fastest boat an experienced sculler could row in open water. Speed very close to that of a flat water shell makes the 24 ideal for rowers concerned with training regardless of water conditions. Advanced recreational scullers find the 24 an exciting and challenging next step.
In all water conditions the Maas 24 provides immediate response to changes in technique. It rewards proficiency with exhilarating performance and for many of us, that is what sculling is all about.
In November of 2017 the “Club Reinforced” option (extra carbon reinforcing in the decks around the cockpit) was made a standard feature on the boat.
