@gregnicholls8347 2 жыл бұрын

Busy-person-sailor, just how I liked it. Feeling the wind and the tug on sheets, tiller and the look of the sails. Would have liked to see some off boat shots.

Only for short periods when going downwind and hoisting of dropping the spinnaker when you need a hand spare.

@@surferatapollobay1341 I think it is a old fico ratchet block, but a Ronstan or Harken ratchet block would work fine. It is mounted on an Allen brothers compact mainsheet swivel.

Nice! How is this dinghy? Forgiving? Easy to sail?

@jaemiewilson6005 3 жыл бұрын

Hi Roy, very easy dinghy to sail. They are designed as a training boat with very little maintenance needs, so can take bumps and impacts without issues. Due to their weight they aren’t all that fast, but you can’t have everything.

@@jaemiewilson6005 Hello! Thank you very much for your reply. I sail Laser at my club, it is nice but too "sporty" for me... ducking under the boom which is too low... See my movies in my channel. Thanks again. Roy

I remember a mirror dingy at it's boat show launch with all the component parts displayed on a board. There was quite a buzz around the stand. Followed by the mirror offshore,a year or so later. I never liked the offshore,but my Dad was quite keen. I thought what they should have done was produce a larger mirror dingy of about sixteen feet for the home build market,sadly the world got the offshore. Had a sail in an offshore once, more than enough. Sorry fans.

Been out of sailing for 30 years and was about to buy a Hobie 14 until I saw this and was reminded just how much fun it is to sail a Mirror with spinny etc. Probably more manageable for a 60 year old too :) Great Share, thanks.

Looks great guys. Just sold our yacht as I have a 1.5 year old and another one on the way. Looking for something a man and a child can sail in and I don't know why I didn't consider the mirror straight away. Used to have one as a lad and it's perfect.

Yes that is exactly what I use mine for. Good for a light wind Potter but can be fun as they get more experienced.
