RAMEZ AVEC NOUS
Nous construisons des bateaux à rames océaniques haut de gamme pour aventuriers
Le bateau à rame océanique Whaleboat O28
Le Whaleboat O28 est un bateau à rame, entièrement équipé, avec cabines, prêt à affronter n’importe quel océan. Nous sommes très fiers de ses lignes, et encore plus de la construction et de l’ingénierie de qualité supérieure.
La vie à bord du O28 est devenue plus simple, car il a été rempli jusqu’au bord de nouvelles solutions à d’anciens problèmes.
Le bateau à rame de pleine mer Whaleboat C23
Whaleboat a commencé à développer des bateaux à rame en 2005. Nos premières constructions étaient des créations uniques : canot à rame ‘ouvert’, sans cabines. Ayant ramé nous-mêmes ces canots pendant des milliers de miles en mer, nous avons acquis une connaissance profonde de ce qu’un bateau requiert pour naviguer dans toutes les conditions imaginables, tant géographiques que météorologiques. Cette connaissance alliée à notre expérience a abouti au C23 primé, le bateau à rame d’aventure le plus polyvalent au monde.
Notre clientèle a ramé des C23 de la mer du Nord jusqu’à la mer de Banda (Indonésie), elle a surfé les vagues des spots les plus emblématiques d’Europe et elle a campé sur quelques-unes des plages les plus isolées du monde.
Avec le Whaleboat C23 vous êtes assurés de vivre l’aventure à l’état pur.

Ocean rowboat construction, exciting process building this beast at whaleboat_boatbuilding and koendegezelle . With this boat we'll be rowing from Portugal to Miami, somewhere in the future...

Chief engineer and soon to be Olympic gymnast Gijs Vanden Bogaerde is testing our new center deck section. Both carbon and aramid fiber were used to build this central piece. The carbon fiber will stiffen the boat tremendously, and the aramid will help protect the deck against puncture. No bending, sagging or hogging at all!

Facing an ever growing demand for power onboard ocean rowboats, we search for innovative, green technologies, beyond the standard solar solutions. In collaboration with green energy companies, makers labs and universities we prototype, build mock ups and test drive new technology. In this case we implement a new hydrogen system in the boat.

Read about @jelleveyt and his human powered #7summits adventure this week in @knackweekend , one of Belgium’s leading lifestyle mags. Jelle chose a Whaleboat C23 rowing boat for the Indonesia leg of the challenge, to reach Carstensz Pyramid in Papua. We provided the ocean rowing experience and rowed with him in one of the most remote areas of the world. Now a long term friendship with many more adventures to come.

Whaleboat ocean rowboats are constructed with only carbon fibre as reinforcing material. Not only because carbon fibre is extremely stiff - three times stiffer than steel for the same weight. But also because in combination with epoxy, carbon fibre creates a much more durable product than the more usual fiberglass/polyester/vinylester combination.
It’s common practice around the market to add a thin carbon layer on old-school polyester boats. It sells as a carbon fibre boat, and indeed it looks like one, but it has none of the qualities.
At Whaleboat, carbon fibre is not used as a show element We work with the Japanese mindset: think beyond your own life span, imagine the future and try to create a product that will last several generations.
Who knows, maybe your grandchildren will ride the ocean in the same carbon boat you did!

Autopilot and tiller systems often cause problems and frustration on ocean rowboats. They break down all the time and crew have to work in a tiny cabin to 'plot' a heading on the tiller arm. That sucks! So, we set out to build our own autopilot system. And this picture of last year's North Sea training says it all: we programmed the word TWAC on our plotter, pressed the button 'go to', sat back and enjoyed the view, while all the rowers had to do was to pull the oars! Magic!
If you want your name 'written' at sea by a rowboat, give us a call...
