I don't know very much about Dinghies, but long ago I read of Frank and Margaret Dye's epic voyages and have always admired the Wayfarer ever since. Fine capable boats, and it's nice to see you keeping an oldie in such good condition.

Nice boats the Wayfarers. We had one when I was young on a mooring at Chichester. Had an Albatross too for a bit. Regular nights spent in tents on Thorney Island, brilliant fun.Fab!
Been fiddlin’ with my 1964 ‘woodie’ Wayfarer recently, adding small cruising bits. Plus I hate one self bailer with a vengeance as it leaks and I really should remove it and plug the hole!
I have a plan to make a passage to Maldon at some point from my usual launch site at Brightlingsea. I would like to go further but time and physical ability may make me lower my sights somewhat.
I’m not in Frank Dye’s league at all mind!
I’m agonising whether to rejoin one of the super clubs. Wayfarer, Cruising or keeping with The OGA as they run a number of small dinghy meets. Hey ho!
