Racing Shells 2+ 3x 6+

Swift Racing loves diversity!

When we are asked to make something out of the ordinary, we try our best to help.

We are able to make 2+ and 3x by taking our super lightweight 4-, and fitting out with customised cockpits.
Our 2+s are suitable for crews from 60kg to 95kg.
Our 3x is suitable for crews from 67kg to 87kg.

RS3x

In the same way, we are able to use our lightweight 8+ mould, fit it out with a customised cockpit, and have a 6+ that is suitable for crews from 80kg to 100kg.

Notes:

  • 2+　use 421A mould, wing rigger only, bow cox or stern cox.
  • 3x　use 421A mould, wing rigger only.
  • 5x　use 408+ mould, with a stern cox (only), heavier than a normal 408+.
    Choose only sculling as 5x/4x(+), or with sweep riggers too, as 5x/4x/+.
    Boat is supplied with extra riggers and detatchable seat deck to convert from 4x(+) or 4x/+.
  • 6x　6+: use 821+ mould.

Keep the same standard work height as we currently have, but we will modify the production of riggers so that this work height is achieved without using spacers. Continue to provide spacers, and the bolts will be the same as now, so customers can go higher, if they want.

For pricing, contact the Distributor for your country or region.

What is the most unusual boat we have built?

Without doubt, that is the “Push-me-pull-you” boat, that we built for New Zealand sculptor Scott Eady in 2009, and which was exhibited in Cambridge NZ, during the 2010 World Championships.

It is a 2x with 2 bows, no stern, and where the rowersface each other!
