Title: Dinghy
Post by: Nordsee on March 21, 2010, 10:39:31 am

Can anyone help here? I am looking for plans for a typical dinghy as would be carried, inverted, on a Trawler or Sailing Cutter. Not round bilged, but a scow form. It is only going to be used for covering the on/off switch, but I have attempted to make one from card, what a mess! It needs to be about 15cms (6inches) long. Any ideas?

Nordsee I use a few ways to hide the on/off switch like a sleeping cat in a basket,funnel exhaust vent is one of my common ways to flick the switch on/off,or slide search light atop of the bridge,even a search light,and the most common one of mine is a crew member slide him across to on back for off or a fish box slide off/ on tassie48.
