Second-Hand Boats

SECOND-HAND BOATS

Quality used boats. Inspected, refurbished on request, ready to row.

At Sykes, we understand that quality and performance are paramount — even when it comes to second-hand boats. We offer a selection of pre-owned rowing boats from Sykes, Kanghua, Empacher and Wintech that have been thoroughly inspected, providing an excellent solution without compromising on quality. Whether you're looking for a cost-effective option to start rowing or an additional boat for your team, there's something here to suit.

Refurbishment available on request

Every second-hand boat in our stock can be refurbished to your spec by our expert boat builders in Geelong. If you'd like a boat returned to like-new condition before delivery, just let us know when you enquire and we'll quote the work.

Refurbishment can include a comprehensive inspection, repairs and rework using high-quality materials and parts, and finishing to your chosen colours and rigging. Refurbished boats are sold ready to row and come with a one-year warranty covering defects in materials and workmanship.

About the prices: All prices shown are exclusive of GST and are for the boat in its current condition. Refurbishment, new fittings, rigging and freight are additional. Boats marked POA are price on application — contact us for details. Weight ranges are indicative.
