TRIDENT-UK MIRROR WEEKENDER DINGHY

The Mirror Dinghy is one of the most popular small dinghies in the world.

It has been available in low maintenance GRP for 20 plus years and the latest Mk3 version has a super smooth simplified look and feel to it. It’s built with foam reinforced with glass fibres and Epoxy resin using the latest building techniques.

The Mirror Weekender is such a versatile craft, It can be Sailed or Rowed and is equally well behaved at all as well as being light and easy to transport
It is beautifully balanced and responsive as a sailing boat
It cuts and glides through the water as a rowing boat with a comfortable and large carrying capacity.

 

It is very easy to rig, launch and recover, and because it is very light in comparison to its size, it is easily car toppable or towed on any light weight trailer.

 

Sailing
The combination of the versatile rig and displacement hull offers a wonderfully balanced and responsive sailing dinghy, perfect for those looking for fun, and effortless sailing in a variety of wind conditions.
It’s an ideal choice for adults or children sailing together as it’s wide waterline beam, coupled with its generous freeboard makes the boat forgiving to crew weight distribution.
The rig is extremely simple and the boat can be ready to sail in minutes. The 2 piece mast gives excellent performance as a Bermudan rig but can still be stowed inside the boat making storage, trailing and car topping simpler. As a Bermudan rig the option of slab reefing the main becomes much simpler and the boat can be sailed with mainsail alone without the need for the jib.

Rowing
Fitted with metal rowlocks and sockets and using 6’6” wooden oars the Mirror rows like a classic with enough freeboard to feel like you are in a boat and keep the worst of waves and the elements away. The hard chined hull with relatively flatter aft section offers excellent stability and grip in the water this grip in noticeable compared to other craft when using in cross winds.
We’d recommend using a cap for the daggerboard case to keep your seat and the cockpit drier. The rowlock sockets are fitted below the gunwale height to keep the gunwale comfortable to sit on if and when sailing.

Hi Robert We don't sell electric motors and which one will depend on how fast you want to go and in what sort of waters. The cheaper motors will be fine out of the tide and when not so windy but you may want more power if going any distance Regards David

Hi Steve It sure can, I have it fitted like that to my Mirror. With the gnav fitted it opens the cockpit right up, I also sheet the main directly off the boom so loads of room in the boat Regards David

Hi Peter Yes we can still supply the Mirror with a gunter rig but the gaffs have to be individually hand made which makes them expensive, this was part of the reason for changing to Bermudan rig. Our two piece mast can still be stored inside the boat Regards David

Hi Graham The hull is white and the decks are grey for the very reason you state. The spars all fit inside the boat Regards David
loader

Hi Graham The spars stow inside the boat, the two pieces of mast lock together with a nut and bolt so once undone they slide apart. The oars will fit inside the boat but we offer no provision to stow or tie them in, I expect shockcord around the shroud anchor points will be best to secure them in. The little forward cuddy is missing from the GRP boats, they do have 6 inch hatch covers fore and aft which you can use as long as you secure your lunch to the lid or it could slide out of reach Regards David

Hi Adam The main is the cruising main and can be spec'd to your preference as below https://www.tridentuk.com/gb/mirror-club-mainsail.html We haven't made a way of shortening the jib on a mirror for years, furling would be tricky so I suspect a slab option may be better If you let me know what you want and I'll look at organising a price Regards David
