Wooden Ships Comments on this Mike Atfield Sailing Dinghy
Built by Mike Atfield of Salcombe in 1990, she has been in the same ownership ever since.
The boat was built with a gunter rig from new, but the owner had a new lug rig built and installed by Peter Williams of Fowey in 2007. The boat comes with both rigs, both complete and in good order.
Complete with a road trailer, this is a very attractive and solid dinghy in very nice condition and ready to be used.
