Product Description

The Fjord Explorer is a light, portable rowboat for one or two people.  It's great for fishing, flatwater exploration, and as a small roll-away sailboat tender.  It can be rowed with its collapsible oarframe and oars, or paddled kayak-style.

With its extra-long hull and added flotation, the FE is designed with the capacity for a passenger or extra cargo.   An attachable skeg improves open-water tracking in rowboat configuration, and a removable, an elevated seat improves rowing comfort and ergonomics, and the entire boat can be stripped down to "Unrigged Explorer" configuration for backcountry trips and hunting. The Explorer is a multi-configuration boat, loaded with features.
