One of our smaller sized kits but still a great performer and really well laid out on as little plywood sheets as is possible by Dudley Dix of Dix Design USA.We can supply part or a full kit,including a set of laminated clear oregon pine spars,Ronstan deck package which will include the access hatch covers to the closed air tight seat areas and a sail from North Sails.
Dudley says:
The first of the two designs, the DIXI DINGHY, was commissioned as a sailing yacht tender for very simple construction in stitch and glue plywood. As a rowing/powered boat, all hull panels can be cut from two sheets of 6mm (1/4") plywood, including forming bouyancy compartments fore and aft. Additional plywood is required to make up the rudder and daggerboard. The rig is free standing, supported at keel and bow thwart and is easily stepped. The mast is in two interlocking pieces and the sail is sleeve luffed and loose footed. All rig parts stow within the hull.
As a sailing fun boat she is highly manoeuvreable and nippy with an adult or two children. As a tender she will comfortably carry four adults and gear in calm water. Load capacity will vary with water conditions.
