Dayboats

 I do have a thing for day boats and this is an interesting example it looks like a Swallow Boats Bayraider and apologies if I have that wrong, but a very worthy modern successor to the original Drascombe.


 That comment might have Drascombe aficionado's rushing to the comment  section, although probably few if any read this blog. Both are great boats but personally I like the greater sailing and especially upwind performance of the Bayraider, the kick up rudder while not essential just makes life easier and I much as I like the looks of the original Lugger personally I think the Bayraider has it on looks especially as seen here in navy blue with white spars.
