The FOXER dinghy is easy to sail and race as a sailing dinghy. There are large FOXER dinghy fleets in Hamble. The FOXER dinghy is easy to row and can readily be used as a yacht tender. It can be davit mounted.
The FOXER dinghy does well with a small outboard motor (about 2 to 4hp) and can be lifted on davits with the motor fitted when used as a yacht tender.
As a yacht tender the FOXER dinghy can be rowed, motorised or sailed.
Because of of inner hull moulding the FOXER dinghy is comfortable to sit in. It has enough built in buoyancy between the hulls to keep it afloat with 2 full grown men in it. It cannot sink unless holed.
