Blondie, an 8’4″ x 4’3″ dinghy, is sized to hold an adult and a child comfortably and safely, and still offer enough sail carrying ability for a child to handle alone (with adult supervision). She has enough reserve buoyancy to sail two adults or row three. The interior of the hull reflects the builder’s preference for open, uncluttered spaces. Pram hulls are most popular for boats of this size. Blondie’s sharp-bowed shape is a lot prettier to the builder’s eye.
In the plans, there are also dimensions for a polytarp sail. You can also use the folding mast & boom that you can find here.
