Hull construction is from single skin rather than sandwich construction which has several advantages particularly when combined with our fibreglass gunwales. The buoyancy chambers whilst adding great rigidity to the boat also allow very little water to enter the boat which is quickly removed by the 24 volt pumping system. Vast development has gone into the layout with twin rowlock positions, longer seats and adjustable foot stretchers to make the boat both comfortable and competitive to row. Our surf boats are extremely difficult to pentrate as opposed to the very thin outer skin on a foam or sandwich timber boat. They can't absorb water to take on weight.
All boats are easy to repair and maintain as there is no timber used at the boats at all.
The boats maintain their light racing weight indefinitely which also gives them a good resale value. A fully fitted surf boat includes 2 pumps, batteries and switches. Standard floors have a trench down the centre either closed with opening for pumps to sit in or open, as opposed to a sealed optional self draining system which includes a raised floor and two 4 inch self bailers. You may also have a raised floor with a trench down the centre which is proving popular. Carbon fibre oars can be supplied on application.
