1977 Miracle Dinghy

in Joburg, South Africa

We learned to sail on a 12 foot dinghy, racing on inland lakes, in the Johannesburg area, from 1976-1979 - a Miracle dinghy, kit build by Ian.

The first Miracle dinghies were built and launched in 1975. Since then, the Miracle's success grew strongly, and sail numbers today exceed 4,121.

The Miracle was supplied initially as a plywood kit and designed for home building, based on the slot and glue method of construction.

It is a forgiving and versatile sailing dinghy, ideal for beginners or experts, children and adults alike.
