Dinghy plans
A dinghy is a type of small boat, often carried or towed by a larger vessel for use as a tender. Utility dinghies are usually rowboats or have an outboard motor. Some are rigged for sailing but they differ from sailing dinghies, which are designed first and foremost for sailing. A dinghy’s main use is for transfers from larger boats, especially when the larger boat cannot dock at a suitably-sized port or marina.
