Frank Hagan Posted October 3, 2020 Posted October 3, 2020 I follow a few cruisers on YouTube, and Sailing Florence Around the World uses a nesting dinghy instead of the inflatable kind most use. I thought it looked familiar, sure enough, they did an episode on their B&B Yacht Designs Spindrift that their father built for them right before they started their journey around the world: 1 Quote
Aphers Posted October 3, 2020 Posted October 3, 2020 Excellent video, I've been following them for a year or two now. In fact it was their videos that first made me aware of the Spindrift design. 1 Quote
Starboard Posted October 6, 2020 Posted October 6, 2020 It's great seeing a Spindrift used as a proper dinghy should be. I also built mine as the dinghy to my little J/24 and it's always fun to show up to a mooring and pull a proper little sailboat off. I always get questions from other boats around me and sometimes even the dockmaster. It rows really well, sails great, and of course motors like a charm too. Thanks for such an efficient design, Graham. Nested on the small foredeck of the J/24: On the way to Catalina: Quote
