Span Gauge Review by Mike DavenportJune 2009
Mike Davenport, well known rowing coach and author of 'The Nuts and Bolts Guide to Rigging' says:
"....after about a week of using it, it became my measuring device of choice. I liked the way it felt, the aluminum is nice, and it gave very accurate measurements. I also found it to be a lot more durable than I thought. One real testimony to it was that the other coaches around also wanted to use it".
