Pirate Themed Dinghy Poker Run - Highfield Sport 390 Dinghy Adventure
Dinghy adventures are the BEST! For a number of years now there has been a super fun dinghy poker run to raise funds for breast cancer patients that we call the “Pink Dinghy Run”. This year we upgraded our super-light Classic 340 to a MUCH more comfortable Sport 390. The CL340 is light enough to secure on our davit system without taking the engine off, which makes it perfect for long sailing trips. But there are so many places to explore on the Bay that we were excited to upgrade to a full console SP390 that has a 20-degree hull which slices through waves and wakes like butter! Which is great when the dinghy run will take us about 15 nautical miles to complete! Other than some serious rain just after the last card spot, it was a flawless day. The SP390 was a fast pirate ship for one day. Now we have to find the next dinghy adventure. Fishing anyone?
