​

NEW to our range for 2025 is the 102H, "the big boys' boat", $7600+GST. While the standard coastal rowing boat is designed for rowers 65-95kg, there are lots of people bigger than that who want to row coastal. The 102H has more buoyancy all along the hull, and a bigger cockpit designed for taller athletes. Rated for crew weight of 85-115kg.

Swift Recreational Coastal Single, Recr CO1x

The "holiday" boat, this is new to the Swift coastal fleet in 2025, and is designed for recreational use.

​

There are 3 main differences from the standard Coastal single; (1) it is one metre shorter (5m), for easier transport and storage, (2) it has a flatter hull for extra stability, and (3) a wider stern to minimise the porpoising (up and down) that you might see in a shorter boat.

​

Designed for crew weight 60-120kg.

​

Available in Elite Plus grade at $7600+GST, weighing 33.5kg, or the lighter Carbon Pro at $9600+GST, 27kg

​

We don't have any of these in NZ in Spring 2025, but please contact us to order - choose your deck colour!

Swift Coastal Double, CO2x

Like all the Swift Coastals, the double is available in four deck colours - white, yellow, blue, red and green. All boats have a white hull.

​

The double can be carried on the roof of your vehicle, we highly recommend a third point of contact using a T-bar extension from the tow-ball.

​

With storage space in the bow-hatch for gear storage, this is a great boat for two-person adventures, and ideal for teaching other rowers.

 

7.5m long, 60kg  in weight, the riggers fold in for easy storage.​

​

NZ $12 900 +GST

Swift Coastal Quad, CO4x

These big boats are fabulous - 10.7m long, 1.3m wide at the mid-point, about 140kg, stable, sturdy and robust.

​

They are quick and responsive on water, steering is great fun, and they give Club crews a real boost of adventure and camaraderie. On land they are pretty big, so let me help you make a good plan for storage and movement right from the start. We have trolleys in stock, or can suggest off-the-shelf solutions.

 

Great for learning to row, and ideal for excursions, tours and adventures.Sweep riggers are available as an option.​

 

From NZ$25 500 + GST, this might just be the most popular boat in your shed.
