Great coaching, bad music, confusing app
I really enjoyed the coaching. Great teaching of technical/form and also motivating talk throughout workout. The "music" was almost inaudible, which may be a good thing because it was awful (imagine upbeat hold music while waiting for customer service to answer the phone). No one on the leaderboard for on demand rides, so you're all alone. Also no Live rides yet. Peloton, this ain't. Lastly, my workout didn't save to my phone, and apparently it didn't sync with apple health, and the data wasn't even stored in the app to manually upload. I think they have something here...there's potential...I'll keep an eye on this app to see if it improves over the coming months.

Better than most others
Easy enough to use and best quality video and app features I’ve seen for the Concept2. Could use a little more data in the history and some charts maybe. Affordable compared to most others.
Overall good, but needs improvements
These are good workouts and will make you sweat.
Things to improve upon:
Instructors don’t give any time to set up a work out on the PM5 or other, then suddenly throw an interval workout without warning when your clock and units are off from the workout. There is no clock displayed in the workout to understand what timer the instructor is referencing either.
Instructors seem to be rowing without talking about what SPM they are targeting or what split times to attempt to achieve. There could be more reference to technique, but I also admit I have not done all the videos.
Music is bad and audio sounds muffled.
Unable to pause the class or fast forward/rewind. Probably my most frustrating finding.

Too buggy to use - hopeful for a fix
This app has a ton of potential to be a great addition to my fitness routine but the problem is it barely works. It’s extremely buggy right when I open it and 95% of the time the app crashes when the class starts or right before. It’s really kills momentum when I’m in the middle of a workout and want to do some rowing drills or intervals to break it up and then I’m left constantly reopening the app and restarting the classes only for it to crash again. I hope you guys fix this because I would join but the way it is I won’t pay the membership.

Great Rowing Class..
I would’ve given it 5 stars if they have more upbeat and motivating music. More classes please. I really plan to continue after my trial expires but i noticed there are not enough classes. But other than these factors the APP and the instructors are great!
Is this company actually still in business?
Hard to tell if this company is actually in business. The live portion of the app does not appear to be available currently, at least not for my iPhone 7, but there is no way to know for sure due to the lack of any useful information about it in the app or on the website. When the live classes portion is clicked, it says “sweat with our crew live, coming soon” and nothing else.

Great home based rowing app.
Peloton for the ERG. I’ve used a few rowing apps. This one is by far on the right track for a pm5
Download This App Now!!
Honestly was not sure what to expect but I was pleasantly surprised!! I was sweating in the first 10 minutes and was sold after that. Love the class options and all the instructors but really enjoying trying something new (like yoga ;)
If you like Peloton, you will love Regatta
It is hard to describe in words how fun and motivating it is to have what feels like a personal trainer and an awesome boat crew!
Easy and efficient
This app has been the best guiding tool to how to make the most of my everyday workout. It is super easy to use and the instructors are great, it feels like they are personally training you through the video.
