Abstract
A tool for the prediction of the performances of olympic rowing boats is presented and discussed. The equations of motion for the dynamical system composed by the boat, oars and oarsmen are obtained by means of suitable models for the rowers motion, oar forces and fluid-structure intercation forces. The proposed algorithm is implemented in a C++ code which has proved to produce consistent results for any crew configuration tested.
