oliver 0 Posted December 14, 2014 Share Posted December 14, 2014 We've come into possession of an old sailing dinghy because the price was right. I'm wondering what it is. It's 4.5 metres long, modest rig, fibreglass with bouyancy tanks and fairly deep cockpit, pivoting centreboard with lanyards to pull it up and down. There's a kiwi logo on the main and no sail number. It's some kind of quiet family sailing dinghy, we'll try to rig it and take it out this summer to find out more. I think you can see photos here, tell me if that didn't work. Anyone know what design this is? Link to post Share on other sites

Surprise 0 Posted December 15, 2014 Share Posted December 15, 2014 Looks a little like one of the later fibreglass X classes Link to post Share on other sites
SloopJohnB 323 Posted December 15, 2014 Share Posted December 15, 2014 Wakatere Sailing Club had a 16fter that Janet Watkins did learn to sail in. I think it was a Brooks or Salthouse design built in fibreglass. Link to post Share on other sites
Murky 1 Posted December 15, 2014 Share Posted December 15, 2014 Too cool SJB it was a Brooke design built in fibreglass by Salthouse. Coronet 16. Overall look was bigger than this though, more day-sailer in appearance than dinghy. Link to post Share on other sites
