Breeze

Introducing the Breeze Sailing Dinghy, a fun, sporty sailboat from Walker Bay. Tailored to the recreation market, the Breeze is sold as a complete sailboat package that includes the hull, seats, PVC tube and sail kit. Designed with novice sailors in mind, this sailboat features an easy-to-handle compact sailing rig and PVC stability tube. The high aspect ratio sail design provides better light wind performance, while the higher angled boom allows more head room.
