What Sets Us Apart
Innovative Design
Dreher carbon fiber parts are made from premium quality carbon fiber prepreg with all design done in-house as well as the tooling, and manufacturing. Dreher was the innovator for the adjustable oar, use of carbon in the handle, blades and shafts, and autoclaving of the shafts. Dreher lead the market with the use of aerodynamic elliptical shaft, which minimizes drag in the last third of the shaft. In 2016 we began offering the revolutionary tool-free adjustment on all Dreher adjustable sculling oars. This feature allows on-the-water adjustment. The latest feature is nut locking latch on the nut that moves the sleeve/collar assembly in and out. We offer three styles of sculls and one sweep with the tool free adjustment and elliptical shaft.
