Enterprise Dinghy – fitting rollocks.

Can anyone help? I recently bought an all-wooden Enterprise, and although I’ll be mostly sailing her, I’d like, if possible, to take the children fishing from time to time. Is it possible to fit rowlocks to an Enterprise, and if so, where should they be positioned? Any advice would be appreciated.
