Optimist class sailing dinghys and C240 class sailboats

Its a ball,
we used to race El Toro class boats in my teens (many years ago)
they look very much like the Optimist dinghys in your photos.

lots of fun without the massive amounts of cash to maintain a
big boat.

Thanks for the info John. Nice that you got to learn how to sail, I have
lived by the water all my life and never tried it!
Just like Lee, I always wanted Power ;-)
