Otter owner

[Rhododendron1969]

So ive just bought an Otter sailing dinghy. I am completely new to sailing and am looking for information on rigging. In the spring I will get myself some sailing lessons but in the meantime I wondered if anyone had any pictures or knew of any videos that i could look at for help. Many thanks!

Welcome to the forum.. Looks to be a similar size and gunter rig to a Mirror, so if you can't find vids on it, there must be many on the Mirror.

A very nice little boat and ideal for learning to sail. Plenty on Google, there are quite a few about.

Great little boats, we had two when I was young. Big enough and fast enough to be nice but not too overpowering.
They come as gunter or bermudan rig. I wouldn't focus too much on getting Otter specific information as a similar boats are pretty similar.
Any basic "how to" book or YouTube will do. Most Mirror rigging info will be ok for the gunter rig.
