About the Boat
The inverted hull bow keeps the boat closer to the optimum trim for longer and reduces unwanted heading changes.
With its streamlined deck the athlete  is able to do the catch and push almost without noticing the deck is even there, in a new concept of total freedom of movement.
Its tailored cockpit provide the most comfortable position possible in each one of the 6 different sizes available.
The stern gives a huge support at the back for a quicker recovery effect out of the water, reducing pitch and heading movement. The new rudder has now a deeper profile for an increased heading stabilization without increasing drag or reducing turning rate.Â

Layups Description
P | Polyethylene | Built-in polyethene material. With more than 50% recycled material! |
A1 | Fiberglass Epoxy | This is the basic layup that is meant to be an affordable option for touring and learning boats. |
F | Hybrid Carbon Epoxy | A very durable and resistant layup, ideal for sprint training and competition. A great balance between stiffness and price. |
WWR | Carbon/Kevlar Epoxy | It was specifically developed for down river, marathon training, and sea racing. It stands out for the balance between its lightness and stiffness. |
G | Carbon Honeycomb Epoxy | High-quality construction, amazing stiffness, prepared for high performance. |
E | Lightweight Carbon Epoxy | It was specifically developed for marathon events. As light as it can be while being very resilient in a demanding sport. |
SCS | Solid Composite System | Provides an excellent performance level because of it’s extreme stiffness, the result of using state-of-the-art materials and technologies. Ideal for high level competition. This layup also stands out for the available options, such as, weights, covers, fittings and designs. |
FC | Full Carbon | The beauty of a clear carbon boat while being the stiffest layup, all possible by using an infusion process for maximum fiber and resin impregnation. |
AIR | Ultralight Weight | Was specifically developed for surfski boats, standing out for being extremely lightweight. It’s especially suited for high performance in all conditions. |

How to Setup your Nelo Boat
The Perfect trim | Valid for flatwater models
As with any high-performance machine, there is an ideal configuration where our boats are at peak efficiency, specifically with the angle of attack (pitch). This guide will help you trim your boat in order to be at that perfect angle when at speed.
- Check the table and images below to find the right measures for your boat size. That’s how you find the optimum static rending.
- Using a marker trace a small straight line, according to the right measure indicated in the table, on the bow for the static line;
- With the boat stopped, adjust your seat and footrest position so that the static line is levelled with the waterline. At that point is the Optimum Static Rending.
The measures we provide are for the median weight for each boat size (80 kg on an L, for example). So if you are on the limits of the boat’s weight range, the line will be over or under water, but the most important is that the static line is still levelled with the waterline.
DISCLAIMERÂ
These ideal trims were the result of real-world testing and CFD analysis, under optimal conditions: flat water, constant speed, no wind, and average water temperature. Meaning that these results may not apply to other scenarios.
