The Wayfarer Fleet at Lake Eustis is a very active One Design Racing Fleet.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Wayfarer History<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The Wayfarer sailing dinghy was first produced in 1957 as a wooden boat. Since then the Wayfarer has gone through numerous versions in fiberglass. The hull shape and sail plan have been tightly controlled to keep all of the versions of the Wayfarer competitive. The pages in this web site will help you understand the passion our members have for the Wayfarer; whether they use their boat for racing or cruising.<br \/>\nWhen Englishman Ian Proctor initially set about drafting the lines of the Wayfarer in 1957, his objectives were threefold. First, he wanted a boat that performed well enough to be suitable for competitive class racing. Secondly, the boat needed to be roomy and stable to make it an attractive family boat. Lastly, it was to be endowed with features such as large stowage compartments and other cockpit amenities, which would enhance its utility as a camping\/cruising boat. All of this was with the view that the dinghy would be sailed for the most part in the rough, turbulent, coastal waters of the British Isles. Ian Proctor succeeded with remarkable genius in achieving all three of his goals<\/p>\n<p>Designer: Ian Proctor<\/p>\n<p>Specifications:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Length 15 ft. 10 in. \/ 4.83m<\/li>\n<li>Beam: 6 ft. 1 in. \/ 1.85 m<\/li>\n<li>Draft, board down 3 ft. 10 in. \/ 1.17 m<\/li>\n<li>Displacement: 372 lbs. \/ 168 kg<\/li>\n<li>Wayfarer Builder: Abbott Boats<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>More Wayfarer information can be found on the following websites: <\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>U.S. Wayfarer Association: <\/strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.uswayfarer.org\/\">http:\/\/www.uswayfarer.org\/ <\/a><strong><br \/>\n<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>Canadian Wayfarer Association<\/strong>: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.wayfarer-canada.org\">http:\/\/www.wayfarer-canada.org<\/a><\/li>\n<li><strong>UK Wayfarer Association<\/strong>: <a href=\"https:\/\/wayfarer.org.uk\/\">https:\/\/wayfarer.org.uk\/<\/a><\/li>\n<li><strong>Regatta Calendar<\/strong>: <a href=\"http:\/\/wayfarer-canada.org\/00coming.up\/001ComingupIndex.html\">http:\/\/www.wayfarer-canada.org\/00com&#8230;ngupIndex.html<\/a><\/li>\n<li><strong>Wayfarer Builder<\/strong>: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hartleyboats.com\/\">https:\/\/www.hartleyboats.com\/<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<div><strong>For more information about the Wayfarer Fleet at Lake Eustis and for a \u201ctry-out\u201d sail in a Wayfarer, contact:<\/strong><\/div>\n<div><strong>Dave Hepting at 352-250-6773.
