02 · Adjustment Range

Span. Work height.
Pitch.

All measurements in millimeters or degrees. ±3 mm, ±0.3° is the margin of error we work to. Span and work height are calculated:

  • From the boat's centre line, when the pin is in the MIDDLE position of the rigger block.
  • When the oarlock is vertically in the MIDDLE position of the pin.
  • From the curve around the hole in the seat top to the sill of the oarlock.

All rigger types are adjustable for work height and span.
