Family dinghy (stable, almost impossible to capsize, doesn't get wet) English for 6 people. In the same concept as the Caravelle or Skellig.

Can be sailed or motorized. Ideal for family cruising (possibility of camping on the boat with a small tent) over several days (watertight lockers for stowing gear) and swim ladder.

The Laser 16 was designed by Laser, a well-known dinghy builder, in response to demand from families and sailing schools for a more modern version of the Wayfarer. This boat has been designed to enable a single person to carry out all maneuvers (light, easy to handle, simple and safe). This last criterion is useful for single-handed sailing, or to enable the more experienced skipper to take along a crew of beginners.

A boat similar in spirit to the Caravelle, but without the Caravelle's disadvantages. Much lighter, faster, more versatile and safer. It belongs to a special category of dinghies called "rando" dinghies. This category is unique. They are not to be confused with the sporty dinghies so well known in sailing centers. The approach to sailing with rando dinghies allows you to concentrate on the pleasure of sailing, and to forget all the worries and complexity that can be involved in setting up a more conventional sailboat (mast only possible in a minute, neoprene not compulsory). If you'd like to find out more about this rando concept and discover other models, watch the video on YOUTUBE: PUFFINS TREK "comment bien choisir son dériveur de rando".

Possible options (at extra cost) : Awning, road and launch trailer, symmetrical spinnaker.
