Sunday Boat Stories: The Optimist Dinghy ⛵️ This plywood boat may not look familiar—but it's hull #35 of the now world-famous Optimist Dinghy. Designed in 1947 as a “soap box derby” for the water, the Opti has introduced hundreds of thousands to sailing. This early version, possibly built by Clark Mills himself, is part of our American Watercraft Collection here. 🧡 Support the preservation of stories like this—donate here: https://bit.ly/3YHHr8V . . . . . #SundayBoatStories #MysticSeaportMuseum
