The Vanguard Pram was designed to be sailed, rowed, or towed. For rowing it has built-in seating, which also double as buoyancy tanks. In sailing mode, the Pram features a molded-in mast step and a simple rig and a blade package. The stable hull shape and bulletproof construction makes the Vanguard Pram a fantastic choice for all three purposes. The pram performs much like higher priced racing prams so it is an affordable option for camps and yacht clubs looking for durable "learn-to-sail" boats. Young sailors will learn essential trimming and sail handling techniques, lessons that they will use for years to come. The pram is perfect for sailing around the harbor, towing to an island getaway or commuting out to your mooring. Anyone needing a multi-purpose sailing dinghy should own a Vanguard Pram.
