FAQ
Q: What are the advantages over a conventional rowing tank?
A: The Biorower offers the true rowing dynamics during the drive. In the boat, we accelerate because the water has greater inertia than the weight of the boat and all rowers combined. In a rowing tank, we try to reverse that very same principle and move tons of water. This cannot work properly and leads to a feeling of moving fresh concrete. Powered rowing tanks with moving water do not solve that problem, it just feels like trying to accelerate concrete that is in motion.
Q: How does the overall cost compare?
A: A Biorower Modular rowing tank is both cheaper to buy and cheaper to operate. A Biorower Modular rowing tank costs about half of a conventional rowing tank, and the annual cost for maintainance are a fraction of the cost involved to run a rowing tank.
