COVID-19 IMPACT

Single Scull Industry Had a Negative Effect Due to Disruptions in Manufacturing and Supply Chains during COVID-19 Pandemic

The global COVID-19 pandemic has been unprecedented and staggering, with the market experiencing higher-than-anticipated demand across all regions compared to pre-pandemic levels. The sudden market growth reflected by the rise in CAGR is attributable to market’s growth and demand returning to pre-pandemic levels.

When the pandemic was at its worst, almost all boat makers, the single scull makers included, reported production shocks. Plant shutdowns, lack of workforce and mobility constraints affected the planning and production timetables negatively. Some of the challenges which affected the sector include: Raw material availability, carbon fiber and resins used in boats manufacturing experienced an availability issue due to the disruption of the supply chain. This has resulted in inconveniences namely lack of adequate stock for the sculls, high cost of manufacturing and consequently delayed production of new single sculls.

LATEST TRENDS

Use of Advanced Materials to Propel Market Growth

The latest development indicates that there is higher demand in the usage of high –performance materials such as carbon fiber, Kevlar and other composites in single scull by producing lightweight, strong and durable sculls. These materials increase the speed and handling of the boats together with providing greater durability and impact resistance in the championship events. To be specific, there has been a trend of moving to green materials and environmentally friendly production methods due to the consumer trend of buying environmentally friendly products in the sports equipment industry.

SINGLE SCULL MARKET SEGMENTATION

By Type

Based on type the market can be categorized into Carbon-Fibre Composite Material and Fiberglass Composite Material.

• Carbon-Fibre Composite Material- Carbide fiber composite is one of the latest things used in the construction of rowing boats. It has the lightest structure and combines a high strength to weight ratio, but is expensive and perfect especially for competitive rowers and high-speed racing.

• Fiberglass Composite Material- Fiberglass composite is cheaper than the preceding material and is common in the construction of rowing boats. Although not as light as carbon fiber, Kevlar provides a good performance to weight to strength to cost ratio.

By Application

Based on application the market can be categorized into Racing and Recreational.

• Racing- Single sculls are applied in high ranking rowing activities for instance Olympics, world championships and competitions at national level. These races demand exceptional skill; long endurance; and a certain technical prowess because as a rower, he or she is the sole craftsman of the vessel at its ultimate velocity.

• Recreational- Calm water rowers utilize it in the single sculling boat to exercise their heart, muscle, and to improve on their fitness level. Contrary to most forms of exercises, rowing consists of low impact and engages most of the upper body muscles hence it is preferred by people who want to get back in shape or perhaps strengthen themselves without straining their joints.

MARKET DYNAMICS

Market Dynamics include driving and restraining factors, opportunities and challenges stating the market conditions.

Driving Factors

Increased Popularity of Water Sports and Rowing to Drive Market Advancement

One of the key driving factors in the Single Scull market growth is Increased Popularity of Water Sports and Rowing. Increased participation in the new rowing events like Olympics, World Rowing Championships, and national regattas have therefore made people to appreciate single sculling. The emphasis made in these contests on the accomplishment of rowing strengthens the requirement for powerful single sculls. All in all, there is increased use of rowing as an activity for leisure besides exercise and feelings of adventurous nature. The general awareness created by media publicity of the sport rowing and particularly competitive rowing has resulted in people more discovering the sport and hence the need to invest in single scull boats for starters.

Rising Health and Fitness Awareness to Expand the Market

Rowing is a low impact cardio exercise that also encourages strength building: the public is beginning to understand the benefits of rowing. Since there is an increased demand for healthy and least invasive means of exercising then single sculling is considered to be one of the most efficient methods of outdoor exercising. In addition, the rowing machine is commonly adopted by runners, swimmers and cyclists as one of the cross-training means. Single sculls are gaining popularity due to the perfect benefits it provides in rowing for both endurance and muscle strength.

Restraining Factor

High Cost of Equipment Poses Potential Impediments to Market Growth

Good single sculls are made of carbon fiber; this is more expensive to manufacture than the basic materials. This make purchasing a brand new single scull a very costly affair especially for novices or clubs with small budgets. Apart from actually buying a boat and the cost of having it fitted for rowing, rowers also require oars, rowing shoes, and covers; all of which makes the rate of participation in this sport very expensive. ISS also includes hull damage repair, rigger and seat conditions and maintenance of the performance of the single sculls.

Opportunity

Advancements in Technology and Materials to create opportunity for the product in the Market

The invention of materials for instance the lightweight carbon fiber composites are not only making single sculls faster, extra long-lasting but easier to maneuver as well. Said advancements are gaining competitive and leisure rowers, who in turn want faster, longer lasting boats with minimal maintenance requirements. Smart athletes are being pulled into the sport by innovations like sensors and performance-enhancing devices (GPS units, stroke rate and power meters). Coaches use this technology to teach athletes’ correct technique to enhance the training results and monitor the results leading to increased interest in the sport.

Challenge

Transportation and Storage Challenges could be a potential challenge for consumer

They are narrow, long and can easily break and hence need fixing or carrying equipment or even vehicles. This poses a challenge for the rowers especially when carrying their boats to and from the water; a factor that is compounded by the fact that many people live in compact urban areas and /or have limited access to spacious compounds or means of transportation. Single sculls require proper storage to reduce instances where they are damaged, and this is hard when they are not stored in the boathouses or other secure centers. Other aspiring rowers also face an arrangement challenge, especially if they live in large cities, where people may experience difficulty when it comes to putting their boats away, which makes the sport somewhat less accessible.
