We have now drawn an alternative marconi rig for her, to suit those who like traditional boats but not gaff rigs. It has the same foretriangle as the gaff rig, so it uses the same headsails, deck hardware and boom. The new mainsail is identical in area to the gaff main, so it will produce some interesting racing to pit the two against each other. This new design is named the Didi Mini . She is the new baby sister in our range of radius chine plywood designs and the first basic information is on-line for viewing.
Construction drawings are now in process.
