Dinghy storage

Using a dinghy for your family car presents a real problem of where to put all of the stuff that you want to carry with you; the air pump, life jackets, extra rope, a night light, small anchor, etc. All of this little stuff takes up room and end up being under foot all of the time. So, I decided to sew up a bag to put it all into. The front of the dinghy was a perfect place to put the bag.


We had a bit of left over cloth that a friend had given us so I laid out the dimensions for the bag and cut out the pieces.

Sewing it up took a bit of effort but the end result turned out to fit the space perfectly and it held all of the gear that we need for our everyday journeys.

The lifting eye for the dinghy goes through the top of the bag for hanging the dinghy at night on the davits.
