The theme of S/Y Tossan and its equipment is to be fossil fuel free. This also goes for the dinghy which offers no outboard engine. Instead the dinghy is equipped with oars and sail. If at anchor in a bay and you want to go ashore you can sail using the rig and sail that accompanies the dinghy.

The dinghy, named Maja, has been modified (improved) from its original design to allow for the main sail to be reefed, supporting a variety of winds.
