Vote For Solid American Speed 
With all the election drama, we are increasingly reminded that every vote counts -- and not just in politics. We vote with our dollars every time we buy groceries or purchase goods & services locally. We vote by doing our homework and investing in the things, people or brands that say something about what we value. Make your vote count this upcoming rowing season by investing in Resolute, an American brand with a reputation for longevity, value and performance. With current lead times hovering around the 12-week mark, we'd encourage you to place your end-of-year orders soon. Timely delivery isn't the only reason to start thinking of ordering your Resolute post haste. Ordering by the end of November also guarantees that you'll avoid a possible price increase after the first of the year.  Learn more by speaking with your regional  Resolute Z Sales Rep.

We asked our fans & rowers to hashtag  #resolutenation  and tag  @resoluteracing  in their race images at HOCR for a chance to win a RESOLUTE fleece, and we're pleased to announce that the winner was Detroit Boat Club's @margohemmingway, whose team competed in the Womens Youth 8+. Congrats, Marge! 


A RECAP OF RESOLUTE ROWERS AT HOCR
Congratulations to so many of the teams rowing Resolute and making us proud to build boats that are built to last and made to go fast! It was an incredible weekend of accomplishment and mind-over-matter as these teams faced off with unprecedented weather conditions and some steep competition. Here are a few of the #ResoluteNation highlights from this year's event. Did we miss your's? Send us an  email ; we'd love to hear your HOCR52 achievements!

OUR FAVORITE HOCR MOMENT
It happened quietly and our photographer, John Rich, just happened to be in the right place at the right time to capture one of the event's most epic bloopers in the Club 8+ competition. Fortunately, our friends at Riverside have a great sense of humor and the rower was ok. He quickly got back on the horse and the crew made a strong finish. We sifted through the many Instagram captions to deliver our favorites below. Please enjoy!
