| Comet Dinghies pride themselves on building a range of practical modern sailing dinghies for discerning customers, who value quality and personal service. Although all our dinghies are highly equipped as standard, an extensive choice of options make each Comet quite individual to suit each customers needs. All the Comet range are almost custom built, fitted out to your personal requirements making each dinghy quite individual, rather than the " take it or leave it " style of some other boat builders. |

| New exciting variation of the Comet uses a 6 sq m Mylar Sail on a 570mm shorter mast. The sail has battens and a zipper on a sleeve luff allowing the sail to be raised on a halyard. The shorter mast and smaller but more efficient sail make the Xtra easier for lighter crews. |

The original Comet, fast and exciting for club racing but with its roomy uncluttered cockpit and optional Mino Rig can be ideal for beginners and lightweights. Having been built for twenty five years, there are large fleets at many clubs and the active Class Association organises plenty of Comet races each year. Renowned as a deceptively fast dinghy in light winds, the decent sail area and light hull ensure an exciting ride in a breeze!

| Great for beginners. A handy size and light weight, the new Zero can be sailed and enjoyed by everyone. Comfortable, roomy and uncluttered, the standard Zero is beautifully simple with a stayed mast and single sail. A pivoting centerboard is a lot more forgiving than the daggerboard usually fitted to small dinghies. All round "sit in seats" and a low cockpit floor give a great feeling of security, compared with some other beginners dinghies. An optional furling jib and the addition of toestraps raise the speed and excitement. |

| When we say the Trio is an allrounder we really mean it. Designed by Phil Morrison, with classic hull lines the Trio is thoroughly modern, but retains some well-proven features of older dinghies. At 15' the Trio has the length to give effortless performance, the ability to carry a large family, and to be quite steady and reassuring when the weather turns nasty! "Sit in" seats and a deep cockpit floor, combined with a relatively high boom make the Trio a superbly comfortable dinghy to sail. |
