3.3m Dinghy
Description
The 3.3m Tender by Polish designer Radosław Werszko is a lightweight, wooden sailing dinghy and tender, part of his series of open-source, stitch-and-glue plywood designs. It's an evolution of his smaller tenders (e.g., 3.1m), offering slightly more length and capacity for versatility as a yacht tender, recreational sailor, or youth trainer. Like other Werszko designs, it emphasizes ease of home building, portability, and simple operation in calm waters. Introduced as part of his tender lineup on dinghy.pl (likely mid-2000s onward).

Disclaimer. Boats are not all the same -- even when produced in the same factory of the same model. Sailrite does its best to publish accurate dimensions, but we often find it worthwhile to have our customers measure their boats carefully before we produce kits for them. You should take the same precautions, especially when the data is not from Sailrite.
