The D23 is the ultimate all-rounder in ocean rowing — purpose-built for solo rowers seeking space and safety, duos wanting comfort without compromise, and teams of three who prefer a faster, leaner alternative to larger vessels.

Filling the sweet spot between the ultra-agile D12 and the high-capacity D34, the D23 is engineered to strike the perfect balance between speed, control, and liveability. Its carbon composite hull delivers impressive performance on the water, while its smart layout, ergonomic rowing positions, and dual cabins ensure comfort during the longest expeditions.

Whether you’re preparing for your first ocean crossing, planning a bold endurance row, or fine-tuning your campaign for the World’s Toughest Row — the D23 adapts to your ambition. Light enough to handle solo, stable enough for weeks at sea, and fast enough to chase records.

This is the boat that opens the ocean to more rowers — with less compromise.

Why choose the D23?

The D23 is built for up to 4 rowers — making it the perfect choice for solo adventurers who need more storage and stability for long expeditions, duos seeking comfort without compromise, and trios or fours aiming for speed in a leaner setup.

With its full carbon composite construction and optimized weight-to-capacity ratio, the D23 delivers serious offshore performance while staying easy to handle both on land and at sea. Whether you’re planning a solo record attempt or teaming up for a race across the Atlantic, the D23 offers the space, balance and confidence to go the distance.

Proven. From Day One.

The D23 was launched with bold intent — and its maiden voyage says it all: a solo crossing from Peru to Africa, one of the longest ocean rows ever attempted. At the helm: adventurer David Bell. At his side: the D23, chosen for its smart carbon design, extra storage capacity, and expedition-ready setup — offering the range and reliability that the smaller D12 couldn’t provide.

While brand new to the market, the D23 builds on proven engineering — trusted in oceans worldwide. Designed to bridge the gap between compact speed and serious endurance, the D23 is here to take on the world’s toughest oceans — solo, duo, or trio.
