More events

One day was filled with small boat contests: sailing dinghies, sailing inflatable dinghies (you must make your own sail), kayak events and kids model sail boats. The sailing races were won by the (store) bought boats but several people entered their own dinghies with home built sailing rigs.

Then they had inflatable dinghy sailing races using only what you could put together to make a sail out of. There were many different types of rigs from a large square rigger that was built onto a dinghy tone that was propelled by an umbrella. One person tried to fly a kite as a sail. It was lots of fun.
