A standup forward facing rowing watercraft is disclosed. The craft includes a hull having first and second opposed ends; a deck affixed to the hull, the deck including a surface for supporting a rider who may face in the direction of the movement of the watercraft; and an outrigger attached to the deck, the outrigger including a pivot point that extends outwardly from the deck, the pivot point being capable of accepting an oar. The oar is capable of rotating in the pivot point so as to allow a rider to employ a j-stroke to provide forward course correction when powering the watercraft with one oar. The outrigger can be adapted to include a second pivot point extending outwardly from the deck, the second pivot point being capable of accepting a second oar. The outrigger may preferably be adapted for longitudinal movement in relation to the deck of the watercraft.
