Because Joris is growing out of his Optimist dinghy and because Daddy likes dinghy sailing too, we purchased a Europe dinghy.
We bought it secondhand, but with a little TLC it will look as new.
The only minor spot we encountered was a light black coloring of the wooden deck near the mast.
Also some slight cracks and bumps in the varnish were found.

Nothing serious though !
