I had a mirror years ago and would like to build one. Does anyone know where to get a set of plans? I don’t want to buy a kit just the plans as I am in the USA and would like to build from scratch.
Thank you for any assistance anyone may afford me.
Hi
I believe that due to introduced class/race/weight regulations, plans for ‘home build’ Mirror Dinghies have been unavailable for quite a number of years.
They are only available as a kit.
Practically, you could always buy an old rotted one and carefully disassemble it, and use the panels, as templates.
You would be unlikely to get it accepted for racing however, and could never advertise it as a genuine Mirror Dinghy, but WTH, it should still give you loads of fun !
I myself have a West 11, a GRP Mirror copy (but 4 inches longer).
