I've been sailing and around boats nearly my whole life and I have to say over the years I have seen bugger all real development in dinghies of the tender sort. Sure we now have RIB's and suchlike but truth be told, tenders are not all that different from when I first started sailing on boats.
So why no development?
Well, some might say that dinghy evolution is at its peak and it is simply a matter of no more development is possible... In other words perfection has been achieved!
Yeah, right...
On the other hand, we might just be at the evolutionary level of fishing with clubs and are simply so lazy and have so little imagination that the same old same is all we can manage. Yeah, that sounds about right.
Now, one does wonder, just what a dinghy would look like if someone with some cutting edge smarts and vision would design and build one... You know, someone like Hobie! Take a look at what they are working on for folks who fish...
MauroMedia/Fishshtick is an awesome resource and well worth keeping an eye on...
