Swallows and Amazons type dinghy
This 9 ft by 4ft 6 simulated clinker GRP dinghy is the ideal traditional dinghy for youngsters to learn or, as I have used it as a tender to a larger craft [hence the fend-offs which can be removed] Built in bouyancy both forward and aft make it unsinkable. Aft tank has a removable cover to give dry storage for picknic or warm clothes. It has a tan sail on a spruce mast which does not require any support stays so very quick and simple to rig. The mast, boom and gaff are varnished spruce as are the oars. A dagger board and rudder and tiller, with extension, a pair of traditional galvanised rowlocks and a plastic bailer complete the rowing and sailing setup Everything is in “as new ready to go condition. There is a new all over cover and a sprung simple road trailer, quite elderly but in good mechanical condition. There is a number plate trailer board so all ready to take to your nearest lake, river or sheltered waters Sadly at 80 I am no longer agile enough to enjoy this delightful dinghy This type of dinghy without trailer or cover etc sell for £3k or more so I am anticipating a quick sale at the very reasonable price of £.
