Scott,

I read your dinghy report with interest.  I'm a Potter 15 sailor, so I have even less room than you!  Furthermore, I often sail with my family of four-that's two adults, a 12 year old and a 9 year old.  to promote domestic harmony in such a tiny space, we recently sold our hard dinghy in favor of a windglider (which we haven't tried out yet-it's blackberry winter here in Tennessee).  Among other things, this PVC water toy can be a towable.  The idea is to give a budding sailor a space of their own.  Bear in mind that it would only be used on inland lakes under benign conditions.

I have three questions:  First, what sort of bridle do you use when towing?  What problems, such as fouled lines, need to be avoided in your experience?  Finally, how does towing affect sailing performance?

Thanks :)
