Remarks:
This much admired classic lug rigged sailing dinghy is understood to be 100% watertight and is very strong and yet not too heavy, enabling her to be car-topped single handed. Thanks to her two mini keels, she is also quite stable (not too tippy in other words!) and being loose footed, there’s no boom to hit you, making her great for learners. She is fast and simple to rig and sails very well, even in a light breeze. A lovely little boat that always attracts positive comment, perfect for your own lake, day trips out or as a companion tender to a period yacht or motor cruiser. Only for sale as the vendor already owns another dinghy! Delivery to Norfolk (or en route) possible subject to negotiation.
