Dinghy Sailing For Beginners

admin — Wed, 15 Sep 2010 15:22:28 +0000

Hi.
I have just taken up dinghy sailing and am very much still a novice. In the future though I am planning to buy my own boat. Can you recommend a boat that I can handle on my own but, will also be suitable (when I’m ready) to take my wife and two young sons out on. I will be looking for a used boat from about a thousand pounds upto two thousand. Another consideration is my height, I’m six four. Any suggestions will be most welcome. Also can you recommend a a good training boat for me, the club Toppers are just too small.

Cheers.

Laser Dinghy Rig

I have a laser dinghy ( 141679 ) which I bought some years ago but never used. It has a 3.8m sail. I am now planning to sell it and need to advertise it accurately. I am not sure whether it has a full sized rig. Are you able to tell me the dimensions of the various rigs, please.

Thanks Colin

Hello please can you help me. As a novice I am buying my 1st boat. The one i’m looking at is a RS Vareo with a sail number 434 on this site. Can you tell me what the sail number indicates? Is it regarding its age and therefore a influencer on price? Many thanks for any assistance

Topper Centerboard

Help! My Topper centreboard and rudder have gone missing. I bought the dinghy second-hand and am in South Africa. I am so upset that I haven’t searched local sites yet – but perhaps you are aware of a source where I can get replacements?

Many thanks.
