Our 2024 camps will use the latest boats produced by Filippi, an official World Rowing supplier and one of the leading manufacturers in the sport.

Filippi boats can be found in the boathouses of many clubs and national rowing federations around the globe, and are easily identified by their iconic design of white hulls with a single horizontal blue stripe. At last year’s 2023 World Rowing Championships in Belgrade, Serbia, Filippi boats won of 47 out of the total 78 medals available (including 15 gold medals), and 78 Filippi crews qualified for the Paris 2024 Olympic Games. A month later, Filippi was the exclusive supplier for the World Rowing Beach Sprint Finals in Barletta, Italy, and a week after that, more Filippi medals were added at the World Rowing Coastal Championships, also in Barletta.

The company began making boats in Donoratico, on the Tuscan coast in northwest Italy, in 1977, and now produces more than 60 different models, spanning flat-water racing shells, adaptive rowing boats, training hulls and both coastal and beach sprints boats. The boats that we will be using in Málaga in 2024 will include both designs aimed at longer, endurance coastal rowing events and shorter, sprint competitions. A key difference between the two types of boat revolves around how they handle the different types of waves rowers face onshore and offshore.
