My nine-foot fiberglass dinghy has traveled on Peregrine's foredeck to and from Maine the last few years. It fits between the baby stay and the windlass just aft of the anchor locker. Otherwise we just tow it between islands. Fortunately, it does tow beautifully. Andy C&C 40 Peregrine Andrew B

So for those who tow, what is the preferred method? We towed an inflatable one time. Had floating painter and made a bridle on the dink. Tied straight to the stern rail station. No bridle at the boat, not tied to the stern cleats. The painter was roughly 20'. In a following seas with 6 foot s

John For short trips I keep the dinghy (10' RIB) on the dinghy tow. On longer trips or over nighters I joist it to the fore deck. It's ok for sailing but a bit of a pain when anchoring. Mike PERSUASION C&C 37 K/CB Long Sault > On Aug 15, 2017, at 1:49 PM, john wright via CnC-List > wrote:

I keep our 9'4" Achilles on the foredeck and sail with it when we have the boat in Pensacola. No real issues. Just rig a line from toe rail to toe rail over the dinghy to keep the jibsheets from fouling. The Admiral and I are quite adept at using a halyard to launch and retrieve it. Just use a

I've bought the same inflatable RIB as Fred for our Landfall 35 but opted for a set of Forespar Davits to make dinghy storage a breeze. Bought at the annual Defender sale, they fit the boat well and retain access to the stern ladder without whacking your head on the cross brace when the dinghy

Any owners of 38 Landfall or any other C&C, keep/store their tender on the foredeck. I am thinking of having Chocks made that at minimum, I can keep a rowing wood tender thats 10 ft long on the foredeck. Not sure about while under sail. Thoughts? Thanks _
