Abstract
Equipment for the conversion of a sailboat hull, having a substantially rectangular cockpit, into a rowing boat includes a frame that is substantially rectangular. Such frame is shaped to be arranged with the two major sides at the two major sides of the cockpit and is provided with a removable locking system of the frame to the hull of the boat. Two cantilever members jut out beyond the sides of the hull and are connected to the frame at one end and are provided with rowlocks on the other end. A seat is also provided, slidable along at least one couple of guides parallel to the major sides of the frame.
