I capsized the Duo dinghy in a controlled test a couple of years ago. Here you see me capsizing it, righting it and then sailing away. You can see it is very stable, the tubes add a huge amount if extra stability and act as fenders when coming alongside, yet are not in the water in normal use. The Duo is a 2 sheet plywood dinghy that was built in 2 days. It can be rowed, sailed or motored. A nesting option is available. You can buy plans and see more details here http://sailingcatamarans.com/index.php/designs-2/46-beach-cats-and-dinghies/420-duo-10ft-sailrow-dinghy (this video has no audio)

We invite you to join our adventure! The first time we ever saw this abandoned sailboat, we knew we had to resurrect her from neglect. This was Sass’ father’s boat. He passed away before she could ever meet him. We have his sailboat now and we’re getting it ready for adventure!

Today I sailed home my new to me 1972 Bristol Carvel 22. I purchased for a great deal on eBay, if I told you how much you wouldn’t believe me so don’t even ask . Let’s just stay. It was an awesome deal. So I purchased her without ever looking at the cabin. I saw her from the shoreline, and I fell in love with this vintage sailboat. Now it’s time to start the motor for the very first time and head down the channel in East Greenwich Bay. Then it’s off to Narraganset Bay towards her new slip.  This was a lovely first day of ownership. Come along with me on this journey with Sailing Vessel PAI NEY formally SV WHITE DOVE. Thank you for watching another episode of Solitude And Sailing. Fairwinds and following seas to all.
