Dinghy sailing
Dinghy sailing is sailing in small boats usually with a centreboard or a keel. The boat is sailed using the crew for balance.
Small boats have always been used to bring people and produce around. This might mean from place to place but often from an anchored ship to the shore.
Charles II of England had a sailing dinghy given to him when he returned from exile to England in the 17th century.
In 1887 Thomas Middleton, a Dublin solicitor, thought that yacht racing was too expensive. He then invented the one-design boat. He wanted yacht racing to show just skill at sailing with all boats to be the same. He found some other people who agreed with him and they decided on a design for the new boat. They decided to call the boat 'The Water Wag'. The Water Wag Club is still in Dún Laoghaire harbour (near Dublin, Ireland), and they race every Wednesday evening during the Summer.
Now, there are a great many classes of sailing dinghies in use in yacht clubs around the world and it is a major Olympic sport.
