I like the idea of building an Eastport pram for short paddling excursions as well as to occasionally tow behind my 28’ sailboat for local cruises . &nbsp;I am not interested in adding davits to the stern of my sailboat. &nbsp;How well can the pram be towed behind a sailboat that is not likely to go more than 6.5 kts?

They tow very well, according to a friend of mine, with no tendency to broach or hunt.
