The Pram has built-in seating in the form of three fiberglass seats that double as bouyancy tanks. In sailing mode, the Pram features a molded-in mast step and a simple rig and blade package. The stable hull shape and bulletproof, unsinkable construction make the Pram a fantastic choice for new sailors.
The Pram was designed to perform much like an Optimist. It is an affordable option for camps and yacht clubs looking for durable "learn-to-sail" boats that can lead into and support their Optimist program. The Vanguard Pram will expose more children to sailing than ever before.
The Vanguard Pram is a fantastic value for anyone needing a multi-purpose sailing dinghy.
