The company - a global supplier of rowing docks - is a silver medal event sponsor of the governing body.

Major American regattas have been supplied by Connect-A-Dock, including the Head of the Charles and Head of the Chattahoochee, in addition to USRowing events.

Now, the backer will be the presenting sponsor of the Masters Racing Series - a series of regional regattas which culminates with the 2016 USRowing Masters National Championships in August.

Connect-A-Dock is also a sponsor of the USRowing Club National Championships and the USRowing Annual Convention.

“Connect-A-Dock is recognised as the industry leader in docking systems and we are proud to continue our longstanding partnership,” said Beth Kohl, chief marketing officer of USRowing.

“Over the years, our members and organisations have benefited from the company’s superior products and we are able to continue offering product benefits to our members as a result of this partnership.

"Our sport relies on strong corporate relationships for growth, and we are grateful to Connect-A-Dock for their ongoing support.”

USRowing has been a "terrific" partner for Connect-A-Dock, according to the company's director of sales and marketing John Krogman.

"We have worked with numerous clubs, schools and organisations around the world to promote rowing and our products," he said.

"Our easy-to-install docks are the preferred solution for rowing clubs worldwide.

"We are excited about being a silver medal event sponsor this year and helping promote the sport and generate greater awareness.”
