Dixi Dinghy and Argie 10 sailing dinghies. Two great dinghies, these little boats offer lots of fun for the whole family.
Multi-purpose, they can be rowed, motored or sailed and are light enough for one person to lift on and off the family car or yacht. Simple stitch and glue construction, they can be built with the minimum of tools, no previous boatbuilding experience and in very little space. Step-by-step instructions included in plywood plans.

RebelCat 5 can be made in two variations or versions - a standard length of about 15 feet and a modular version which can be either 15 feet or 21 feet. The longer pontoons length is acheived with 6-foot extensions on each pontoon, held to the main pontoon by a coupler - an experiment which proved surprisingly successful. Feel free to make your cat any length, but check the Flotation Chart first. Update: Now that I have been sailing my RebelCat 5 for two years, I would suggest using 12" diameter pipe about 17' long, instead of making the pontoons using 10" pipe in two sections. The flotation is about the same and there is no need to join sections.
