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). Cheers terminator Hi
