Nesting Dinghy
Take a look at the Spindrift and Catspaw that B & B Yacht Designs have
at
http://www.bandbyachtdesigns.com/yachtt3.htm
I have plans for a non-nesting 10' Spindrift I will build for quick
sailing in the harbor here ... if I ever get time to get back to
building, that is. Steve Day built a nesting one, and has some posts
about his progress on the B & B Yachts forum on my site (complete with
pictures):
During building:

I originally got started looking at boat plans because I wanted to
build a folding dinghy. However, now I am not too enthusiastic about
folding ones and am interested in "nesting" ones. However, the
nesting ones I have seen are fairly heavy and I have seen no plans for
one anyway. Are there any plans for a two piece nesting dinghy using
the lightweight construction methods similar to what the Mini-Cup
uses? I am interested in a tender (maybe 10') for my 28' sailboat and
I would like it to row well and fit (nested) on my foredeck.
Do I dare try to design something like this on my own?
