Shannon-One-Design
The Shannon-One-Design sailing dinghy is a small sailing boat raced on the River Shannon and Loughs Ree and Derg in Ireland. The boats are 18 feet (5.49m) long by 4 feet 10.5 inches (1.5m) beam, drawing 4 feet (1.23m) with her centreboard down. They have a sail area of 140 square feet (15.6m2) set in a single sail, giving the boat what is called a gunter rig.〔http://www.lryc.ie/soda/boats.html〕
==History==
During the 19th. and eary 20th. century racing was organised for 18'-0" long open boats with one sail on the Shannon lakes. These boats were not all exactly the same, as different lakeside builders adapted their traditional rowing boats to meet an owners preferences.
The creation of the Shannon-One-Design sailing dinghy came about after a meeting of representatives of Lough Ree Yacht Club, Lough Derg Yacht Club and North Shannon Yacht Club (Lough Boderg) held in the Prince of Wales Hotel, Athlone, on 29 January 1920. The committee commissioned a leading British designer of the time, F.C. Morgan-Giles.〔http://www.morgangilesyachts.org.uk/shipyard.html〕 Later that year Morgan-Giles delivered the plans. The first boat was ordered from Walter Levinge of Creaghduff, Coosan and delivered in 1921.
