The
Pixxy 2.35 is a stable, easily
adaptable dinghy, making beginners
classes for children a genuine
pleasure. Young helmsmen will
be particularly attracted
by the fashionable design
and especially sleek-looking
tiller.
Comfortable : The extra-spacious
cockpit and wide, user-friendly
tanks make teaching children
easy and the whole sailing
experience more pleasurable
still.
Practical : This dinghy
carries especially well due
to wide, solid "wing" strakes
which, along with the restoring
torque, make it easy to handle
and the hull particularly
resistant. The boom is positioned
high enough to nullify any
potential problems when beating.
A small tank at the front
of the dinghy offers convenient
storage for the towing line
and a dry place in which to
keep smaller items. The
semi-open rear transom keeps
the sheet firmly in place,
whilst the Optimist-model
centre-board, rudder head
and rigging can all be adapted
to the Pixxy.
Safe : The Pixxy is
as safe a vessel as the Optimist.
Righting is made especially
easy thanks to the design
of the self-draining cockpit
and the voluminous double
bunt and tanks. In addition,
the bolt-rope mast and reefing
enable free and easy sailing
with the fastest possible
reduction in speed, partial
or total. Children can board
this vessel easily due to
the semi-open design of the
rear transom.
Construction materials
: Felt/polyester sandwich
structure with plywood-reinforced
deck fittings. The double
bunt is linked to the hull
via a pre-moulded, laminated
polyester structure, guaranteeing
extra stability throughout
this one-piece vessel.
Version FUN : Mylar
sail, tail mast, Harken deck
fittings.
