Dried out on a beach

Sailing is much more fun if the whole family can enjoy being on the boat. That often means being able to dry out on a beach so that children can play in the sand.

Welsh Strider

With its shallow draft its easy to board a Strider when its dried out. Although you do have to be careful about rocks, the lack of keels does make it easier to board when compared to a Strider Club which has the same hulls, but LAR keels instead of daggerboards.

Note the dinghy style kick up rudders and the conventional tent on deck
