Dabchicks are neat scows and sometime I'll do a post about them.<br /><br />The Exact class is one of those rare main/jib singlehanders (the Dabchick being one also). I do like the South African dinghies.Tweezermanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06559514473959503645noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4273883632460433399.post-319210220735829972015-04-03T20:58:29.305-07:002015-04-03T20:58:29.305-07:00very nice to read my way thru your site, as i cons...very nice to read my way thru your site, as i consider a boat to build. i won the dabchick national champs once upon a time (they are still wooden). my dad now sails a sonnet as a family boat (they are now fibreglass).<br /><br />another two amazing "indigenous" boats were the extra and the sprog, i guess having sharpie type hulls. and since the 80s made in fibreglass.<br /><br />there were large scows in durban historically. i think they had been inspired by australian fleets.<br /><br />thanks for the site,Charles Nankinnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4273883632460433399.post-64272973359308738482012-11-13T19:44:58.068-08:002012-11-13T19:44:58.068-08:00This comment has been removed by the author.Baydoghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00751866865203182109noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4273883632460433399.post-91423644737344162562012-11-13T19:44:42.242-08:002012-11-13T19:44:42.242-08:00I kinda love the new header photo with the big swe...I kinda love the new header photo with the big sweeping headsail and everyone just sort of lazing on the rail.Baydoghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00751866865203182109noreply@blogger.com
