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.

Front Row on the front page
We made it to the front page! Very happy to put ocean rowing in the picture, a positive note in between the daily numbers. Press coverage has been great so far, as we're getting closer to the start!

Digitising the Whaleboat O28
It's common to start the production of a new boat by creating the design in 3D software, then build the model - as basis for the moulds - from the CAD drawings.
The model for the Whaleboat O28 ocean rowboat however was originally shaped by hand, similar to the shaping of a surfboard. This creation process provides freedom, allowing full control of the organic shapes. We create a boat like a sculpture.
The digital data from the software however is necessary for many purposes, that's why we're now working on a reversed approach:
A few days back, @oliverdewolf and @viveshogeschool scanned the boat, using a state-of-the-art led @einscan3d scanner.
The dots you see on the boat help with assessing distances and connecting fragments of the scan. Oliver 3D printed the dots (and his daughter had a great time compiling them).
The result of Olivers many hours of careful work, will be a highly accurate 3D model.
We will use this model to optimise future builds, glueing process, aerodynamics, wrapping design, plug and mould making, interior customisation and demoing. Virtual tours for prospects are almost here!
Thank you Oliver and Vives!

Meet Fritz Buyl, the Front Row weather router. In summer, Fritz eats a few weather charts for breakfast, heads to his daily job at the Oceanographic Meteorologic Station where he forecasts the weather, then goes on to send weather updates to professional competitors at sea, and before he goes to bed, he studies the latest Heavy weather sailing edition. In winter you can find him in Union Glacier Antarctica where he provides all forecasts for South Pole missions and adventurers alike.
His daily briefings will guide us across the ocean following the optimal route. Based on weather system forecasts he will set the course, so we can benefit from wind and currents, and avoid depressions.

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.

Mooi artikel in @knackweekend van @wimdenolf !! Zeer fijn interview met iemand die zijn research grondig doet en daardoor de interessante vragen stelt, merci voor het artikel! Lees het volledig online (link in bio) of koop het in de winkel.

Great article by knack (big Belgian magazine) about my life in adventure. Only in Dutch and French.
