In Fourteen Hundred & Ninety Two, Columbus sailed the ocean blue He thought that he’d sailed quite a lot… but he didn’t try our Mini Yacht. Introduced in March 2008, the Mini Yacht comes from the design genius of Jean-Pierre Boutemy, a 1980s French sailing champion, & is a unique & perfect piece of water bound magic! The fine aim behind this innovation was to teach children to sail in the safety of enclosed water. Small enough to fit in a swimming pool, but perfectly made as a functional vessel, the Mini Yacht is a unique & amazing craft. Like a full-size yacht it has a tiller, sail boom & mainsheet, & comes with all the ropes & lines necessary, including a four-metre safety tether for the instructor, as well as a life vest & sun cap. The Mini Yacht can float in only 40cm of water so is ideal in limited depth training pools or seaside attractions. Help your children share your passion for the briny with this small tall ship! NB: The Mini Yacht is not a toy & should only be used under supervision of a responsible adult or instructor. Age Three to Seven years.
