XCAT ROW Forward rowing, backward rowing, or SUP, the XCAT Row configuration does them all flawlessly. XCAT RowVista With traditional rowing, you are pulling the boat backwards, and your line of sight is opposite of the direction in which you are traveling. With RowVista, you’re pulling the boat forward, and your line of sight is forward so you are facing the direction you are headed, much like driving a car or operating a powerboat. You will feel the breeze in your face and you can row at a relaxed pace without fatigue. Moderately fit people can row much farther than they think with RowVista. If you want to be able to row forward and sail at the same time, choose the RowVista System from the dropdown menu on the left and add an XCAT Sailing Kit from our accessories below. XCAT RowMotion The XCAT RowMotion uses a classic reverse rowing motionthe way that its been done since rowing was invented. The stable catamaran design provides a smooth safe ride on the water while an adjustable stop limits movement to the rear so that you can row without using foot straps. This is extremely beneficial if you want to row in flip flops or barefoot in the summer. The XCAT RowMotion is available with or without oars. Choose the option that best suits your needs from the dropdown menu on the left. XCAT Row Innovations Designed with rowing in mind, the XCAT is built to excel at rowing while providing an unparalleled platform that can withstand coastal conditions and constant powerboat wakes. XCAT Row Features & Benefits The worlds first hard-hulled catamaran that can be transported on the roof of your car and assembled in 12 minutesall without sacrificing quality or performance. Wide catamaran design lets you row in rougher conditions. Low to the water design keeps you in touch with the water. Concept2 oarlocks allow you to use our oars or your old C2 oars from college. Anodized aluminum frame is corrosion resistant and will keep your boat looking new for years to come. HDPE hulls are ultra durable and can handle hard groundings or collisions with underwater obstructions. Fully adjustable positioning for oarlocks, roller seat and foot stretchers. High-Quality Textilene This high tech material is used for the trampoline. It is UV resistant, hard wearing, breathable and self tensioning. This material is comfortable enough to sleep on but firm enough to comfortably stand and walk around. It is also durable enough to bring a large dog along without worry of damage. Motor Mount Included All XCAT boats include a motor mount attached to the rear crossbar. This mount can handle up to a 3 hp outboard (Red Beard recommends either the EP Carry or Torqeedo 1103CL). If you dont want/need the mount, you can unbolt the wooden motor mount from the crossbar for a clean aesthetic with reduced windage. Check out theXCAT Extra Crossbar With Outboard Bracket. Bow Net Storage (Optional) This optional bow net and bowsprit allows you to store gear without cluttering the main trampoline area. With a rowing only XCAT, you will need to purchase the rowing version of the Bow Net as it includes a bowsprit. Bags Included Every XCAT Row includes two high quality padded storage and transport bags. One holds the trampoline and the other has wheels and holds the crossbars, oars, rudder (optional) and most other accessories. There will even be room left over to hold a sailing package as well. Oar Blade Feathering (RowVista) The RowVista system allows easy feathering by rolling your hands forward. There are hard stops at the feathered and square positions to make rowing easier for newbies and relaxing for advanced rowers. All Carbon Sculls (RowMotion) Our all carbon 2 piece oars feature Martinoli grips and an adjustable cuff to accommodate any size rower. Anodized Aluminum Frame The high quality anodized aluminum frame resists dings and dents as well as being very resistant to seawater and UV degradation. EPP Particle Foam Filled Hulls This foam provides structural support to the HDPE hull skin material but also makes the XCAT unsinkable. HDPE Hull Skin Think plastic cutting board material, it is weatherproof, impact resistant and dirt repellent. These hulls are easy to clean and can withstand hard groundings on an oyster bed, even though the boat floats in ankle height water. XCAT Row Technical Specs Boat Specifications Overall Length 16′ 5\
