page_txt=Designed by: US Navy The MK Dinghy is not only a wonderful sailing dinghy, but an excellent yacht tender and row boat. Her simple rig enables sailors of all abilities to enjoy the water. Her airtanks also act as the bow and stern seats to keep her afloat even when full of water. Her hull shape allows her to track very well when rowing or being towed behind a cruising boat. With a 4 person or 491 lb capacity maximum she has plenty of room for shuttling passengers and gear to a cruising boat. She performs well with a 2hp motor or a set of oars and is easy for one person to handle on and off a dock.
