Coxed Fours & Quads
Overview
Coxed Fours and Quads demand strength and power to motor down the course. Sykes specially designed coxed four Mould 407 compliments other four/quad moulds that can be set up to carry coxed crews. These hulls aim to maximise the run between strokes with the least wetted area in contact with the water.
These boats are widely used in Australia with schools and clubs alike. Internationally, they have been successful with Junior World Champions.

Designs that have set course records in Lucerne, won World Championships and produced Australia’s first ever Olympic medal in women’s rowing, yet versatile enough to be the number one choice for most of Australia’s School rowing programs. That’s the heritage that backs your choice in a full range of coxed fours and quadruple sculls. So dominant that it’s not uncommon to see every medalist in National School events racing in a Sykes boat.
