The Admiralty Sailing Craft (ASC) 16 foot dinghy is a traditional pulling and sail-training open dinghy, extensively used by Sea Cadet Units and latterly by corporates for teambuilding exercises and competition on coastal and inland waters. It is suitable for pulling with 5 - 6 oars and has a stern sculling facility. It has a gunter sailing rig, a lifting centreboard and rudder and is safe and simple in operation.
The heavy and durable construction ensures that the boat can be simply maintained at minimal cost and is accordingly great value for money.
