Summary

Meet Margaret and Calvin Coffey who designed SimulatOar rowing machine. Timestamps 01:00 Our background is as boatbuilders - Calvin rowed at the Montreal Olympics and built his own boat. The indoor rowing machine was developed for our personal rehabilitation after a car accident. the SimulatOar is the most accurate rowing simulator available. 03:50 The SimulatOar demonstration - Balancing aspect as it's mounted on springs. The Oar handles have a full range of movement and include feathering. You adjust the load by changing the inboard and a damper on the flywheel. It includes the PM5 monitor from Concept2 and stores vertically for compact storage. We have 100% customer satisfaction. 07:45 What's new? We are always making improvements and all machines are upwardly compatible. The latest version has "competitive mode". It makes the catch quicker and the load heavier, giving more work in the legs like in a race. The Sinkovic Brothers in Croatia train on it in a pair 2- configuration. 09:00 Switching the rig from sweep to sculling involves changing a rigger and takes about 15 minutes. We ship around the world and it takes about 45 minutes to assemble - all tools are provided. 13:30 We have taken an injury-free sport and put it on land. It's just like rowing without the "splash" The website is https://coffeycorporation.com/
