Default Planing Dinghy - I doubt it!

MC, having a very blond moment, suggested:
Try stepping onto the centerline...

Well, duh....if you didn't on this dinghy you would end up very wet for
sure....even stepping on the centerline makes the thing skate out from under
you....heck, the thing weighs less than 75 lbs all told and has very little
freeboard to speak of....like stepping onto a concave surfboard with
seats...
