Boat Review

Whether it is a day sailing with the kids, learning to sail or racing in high winds, the Wayfarer is the boat for you. This nearly 5m long boat is one that can be enjoyed for many years as it has a reputation for being tough and a very seaworthy dinghy. However this doesn’t make the Wayfarer boring, it is an excellent racer and provides a very rewarding sail. Since the Wayfarer was originally designed there have been improvements in materials and production techniques, which have lead to a variety of different versions all sharing the same hull, shape and sail plan.
