Boat colours and boat names

The standard color for Swift boats is white hull and canvas decks, with black tips for the bow and stern, and black trim on the saxboard tops and wave breaker.  Deck tape is black.   We use 3 coats of a UV resistant polyurethane paint to help protect your boat.

Elite and Club A boats are clear finished in the cockpit area, showing the weave of the carbon cloth.
Club B boats’ cockpits are finished in white.

For custom colors we offer 3 choices;

A. Standard design but alternate trim color (deck tape, edging around cockpit, and bow/stern tip color from black to another color) = $100

B. Standard design but change the main color from white, change the trim color or leave it as black = $200

C. Other custom color = quotes provided

For custom orders and at an additional cost of $40 we are able to apply your chosen boat name on the bows of your boat prior to packing and shipping, but you MUST make sure to inform us of your choice of name when ordering.

Sectional Boats

All eights are sectional boats (2 pieces), in line with FISA's rules of racing. All other boats, singles, doubles and fours can be built as 1 piece boats, or for easy transportation and storage as 2 piece boats. There is a $250 charge for sections in singles and doubles, and a $400 charge for sections in fours and extra sections in eights. There will be an increase in boat weight of approximately 1kg for singles and doubles, and 2kg for fours and eights.

All eights are stern coxed boats, in line with FISA's rules of racing. Fours can be built as either top coxed/front loaders, or as stern coxed boats.
