Yacht! I made only small boats of the A class dinghy, too and were over in 10years.
Is it pleasant that I make it whether it is pleasant that I sail? After all the sea is good! !
It was the making of yacht that began out of desire to want to do a race by a new boat at first.
The boat which I made accomplished championship in an all-Japan meeting in Gulf of Hakata in 1999.
Myself accomplished championship by an all-Japan championship of 2006 in 2004.
Of course, the boat is a work of my own.
There are 15 brother dinghies in all over Japan now and competes in a race each other.
I hope more people get close to this tradition boat and look forward to opening a way in the future from now on.
