Vaurien used buy/sell, 6 ads listing and price
The Vaurien is a bit like the Hillman Minx of dinghies: simple, robust, and timeless! ✨🚣♂️ The Vaurien is a small one-design dinghy. It was designed in 1951 by the french architect Herbulot. Its distinctive hard chine hull sets it apart from boats like the Mirror or 420.

A quick throwback... ⏳
It’s 1951, and French naval architect Jean-Jacques Herbulot gets a mission: design a boat that’s cheap, easy to build, and perfect for young sailors. His genius idea? A plywood dinghy, assembled like a puzzle, that won’t break the bank. And so, in 1952, the Vaurien (yes, the cheeky name was intentional) is born and quickly becomes THE go-to sailing school boat.
