CO4x+ Coastal Quad

Our Boats  /  Coastal  /  CO4x+ Coastal Quad

Overview

The CO4x+ is the most versatile coastal quad on the market. The boat runs beautifully and does not stop when going through waves. The hull is designed to excel in surfing and to perform in flatwater too. This boat is incredible at turning due to its well-designed rudder system and back-half hull shape.

The reverse-design riggers have four fixing points and a short outboard: very efficient, while also allowing for quick derigging for compact storage at boat houses.

This boat has won five out of six medals at the 2023 WRCC, for a total of 22 World Championship medals across 5 World Championships in flat and wavy conditions. The boat has set records at long-distance races such as the San Remo to Monaco 32 km race and Hong Kong's 'Around the Island' Race.

Designed for 4 scullers plus coxswain, the C402C hull offers a 10.7 m length with excellent stability for crew coordination in challenging conditions.

For CO2x, CO4x, fold-in riggers.

From July 2024 we have kept the same standard work height as before, but without using spacers. Using the spacers provided will increase work height by 10 mm.

As with all our boats, we can build custom riggers, ask your distributor for detail.

Boat Grades & Construction

Each grade is finished to the same high standard, with a different price point, and may be more suitable for certain situations and environments.

All Swift racing shells share these core features:

  1. "Sandwich" construction (ie. A core material such as honeycomb, coremat, or PVC foam is sandwiched between 2 "skins").
  2. Epoxy resin, cured at high temperature, under vacuum.
  3. Enclosed seat decks for maximum buoyancy (exceed FISA's requirement).

With various grades, you can choose the materials and price which best suits your needs, whether that is rowing in the Olympics or putting out a fleet of robust singles for your Novice Masters group.
