The Beaufort is a substantial GRP sailing dinghy, with round bilges (appearing similar to a carvel smooth hull, a mainsail and a jib.
It was designed by Ian Proctor c. 1965. It's a relatively stable cruising dinghy,[1] and is equipped with a metal centreplate.
The Beaufort sail mark is a trumpet with a black square beneath and a white "B" within the black square.
Besides the Wanderer fleet, Janet and Anthony Byrde in their Drascombe and Richard and Peter Goodfellow, in another Ian Proctor designed dinghy called a Beaufort, were sharing the Cruise with us.
