The Flipper is an American sailboat that was designed by Carter Pyle and Joe Quigg as a daysailer intended for children, first built in 1966.[1][2][3][4]
Named for the period TV series, the boat is sometimes confused with the 1970 Danish Flipper dinghy, sometimes called the Flipper Export, of which 15,000 were built.[5]
Production
The design was built by Mobjack Manufacturing in Gloucester, Virginia and Newport Boats in Newport, California, United States. A total of 582 boats were completed starting in 1966, but it is now out of production.[1][3][6][7]
Design
The Flipper is a recreational sailing dinghy, built predominantly of fiberglass, with wood trim. The hull bottom is foam-filled, making it unsinkable. It has an unstayed catboat rig, a nearly plumb stem, a vertical transom, a transom-hung rudder controlled by a tiller with an extension and a removable daggerboard. The hull displaces Шаблон:Convert fully-rigged.[1][4]
The boat has a draft of Шаблон:Convert with the daggerboard extended and Шаблон:Convert with it retracted, allowing beaching or ground transportation on a trailer or automobile roof.[1]
For sailing the design is equipped with boom vang and a center boom-mounted mainsheet.[1]
