Dinghy sailing is the activity of
sailing small boats by using (1) the
sails and (2) underwater
foils (
daggerboard or
centreboard and
rudder). It also involves adjusting (3) the
sail trim and (4) balance by movement of the
crew, particularly in windy weather ("move fast or swim"). In rivers and tidal waters the effective choice of route in terms of existing and anticipated wind shifts (5) and currents (6) can be important.
