Para 1x Adaptive Single

Our Boats  /  Adaptive  /  Para 1x Adaptive Single

Overview

The Swift Para 1x is designed specifically for para athletes. Supplied with both P and R (PR1 and PR2) seat rails and fittings as standard: making it versatile for different classification categories.

The rigger span is adjustable by ±35 mm per side, and custom riggers are available upon request. We use a long rigger block for Rec & PARA boats, so the standard spans for 1x riggers are: 1280-1420 mm, 1370-1510 mm and 1460-1600 mm.

For boats with the quick release system, this adds 10 mm in extra height for the riggers. If you choose to not use the extra height, you can order the boat with custom riggers.

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.
