| The Vagabond 3.7 developed from the obvious need, on the
Australian leisure scene, for a multi-purpose boat that the whole family
could enjoy. Research showed that families would like a smaller, easily
stored boat. It would have to be safe and stable, yet still have enough
speed and agility when called upon to perform. It should be simple and
comfortable and roomy enough for most families and to be a true family
boat, it should be manufactured to the highest quality and marketed at
the lowest possible price.

The Vagabond is extremely stable with an excellent freeboard and deep sit in seats. The seats double as air buoyancy tanks. Both the mainsail and jib can be lowered whilst on the water.
One person can rig, launch, sail and retrieve the Vagabond. The swing up rudder makes approaching and leaving shore a breeze and her kick up centreboard makes sailing in shallow water easy.
The flared bow, rolled gunwales and large foredeck with splashguard help keep the boat dry. Gutters along the rear of each seat act as drainage. The seats are deep set and provide comfort and security. There is a large dry storage area under the foredeck.
