Teak is the best wood to use for fitting out our row boats due to its superior strength, longevity and beauty. Teak has a natural oil that prevents decay and enables easy refinishing. Before delivery all woodwork is treated with 3 coats of high quality exterior grade oil. An oil kit is included with new row boats. As little as three hours of maintenance a year keeps your boat looking new.

Teak floors are a work of art, and the ultimate touch of elegance. They are an optional feature on all models. They include built-in footstops and are removable for easy maintenance.

 

Gunnels are fitted in solid teak and both inwale and outwale are copper riveted producing maximum strength and stiffness. Teak spacers simulate traditional rowing boat frame ends and provide a secure handhold for carrying
or handling the row boat.


Breasthooks and stern knees are also fitted in solid teak, reinforcing the ends of the rowboat and further protected with custom cast bronze fittings.

 

On sailing models a dagger board well cap of solid teak is used when the boat is in rowboat mode. Dagger boards are solid teak and can be pinned to varying depth positions.
The rudder/tiller, built of solid teak, features a kick up or lock down system.

 

A built in retainer clip keeps the rudder firmly secured while underway.

 

Masts and booms are made of Sitka Spruce. Wood floats, looks good and feels good. It is easy to add fittings and simple to maintain. Our one piece free standing masts drop into their sockets and simply lift out to stow within the boat. Optional two piece masts are also available. Complicated wires or stays are eliminated because a simple rig is a safer more enjoyable rig. Belaying pins make practical efficient cleats.
