Janousek & Stampfli Racing Boats

Stampfli Veb coxed 4

We have 3 hull shapes available:

Short FISA – Developed at the request of FISA as a standard for hull design this lightweight shape is 11.8m in length.  Available as a coxless four or quad up to 80kg average weight.

  • Aluminium 3 stay rigger (Janousek and Stampfli)
  • Aluminium wing (Janousek and Stampfli)
  • Carbon wing (Stampfli quad only) bow or stern mounted

VEB – This hull shape is our most popular 4s shape due to its versatility as a stable platform in coxed (bow or stern) and coxless formats.  It is 12.85m in length and available in a full range of average weights up to 110kg.

  • Aluminium 3 stay rigger (Janousek and Stampfli)
  • Aluminium wing (Janousek and Stampfli)
  • Carbon wing (Stampfli quad only) bow or stern mounted

S4 – The ‘classic’ Stampfli shape (also known as the Long 4) is our thinnest and least resistant shape and consequently requires a higher level of technical skill to row well than the VEB.  This shape is 13.07m in length and is available in coxed (bow or stern) and coxless formats and a full range of average weights up to 110kg.
