RecC101- Recreational Coastal 1x

Our Boats / Coastal / RecC101- Recreational Coastal 1x

Overview

The RecCO101 model of Coastal 1x is our latest Coastal model. This boat meets the World Rowing requirements for Beach Sprint and Endurance Coastal racing: but is designed for recreational use, rather than racing.

The 3 main differences are:

1 m shorter than most racing Coastal 1x: for easy transport by car, storage in the garage, and easier boat handling. A shorter boat also helps keep the weight down.
Flatter hull shape for extra stability.
Wide stern to minimize the "pitching" (porpoising) that would typically happen with such a short boat.

The boat still is speedy and very manoeuvrable.

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:

"Sandwich" construction (ie. A core material such as honeycomb, coremat, or PVC foam is sandwiched between 2 "skins").
Epoxy resin, cured at high temperature, under vacuum.
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.
