Show Mothers! A Penguin skipper soon finds that money is no substitute for skill The technique he must acquire td handle his boat well gives him a range of knowledge about the quirks of wind and water that the big-tiyachtsman may never master. The country's 4,000 registered Penguins probably cover more mileage each year than the "Queen Elizabeth," but it's not all on water. Because they weigh only 160 pounds, the dinghies are easily hoisted to the top of a car, or aboard a trailer. One Penguin skipper from Racine, Wisconsin, traveled 5,000 miles last season to sail his boat in waters off Baltimore, Peoria, Chicago, Clearwater, and Michigan City. There's no doubt that the Penguin vogue has answered a lot of family objections to sailing. Their safety record is enviable, and no wonder. The skipper never sails out far from shore, he rarely sails alone, and he is required to carry a life preserver at all times. Should a dinghy overturn, help in the form of a motorboat is generally close by And almost every skipper overturns at least once a soggy pill for miscalculating the wind. New Penguins cost anywhere from $250 to $425, depending on your location and the boat's stat f auiiuis iuiu mai seconanand are mpmwnwi quite satistactory, and their cost fre quently depends on the buyer's bargaining abilitv and the owner's desire to selL Some secondhand Penguins in excellent condition have been purchased for as little as $150. navocaies ot uie lazy week end like Penguins because they require relatively little plywood bottom rarely needs calkmgrand HMed wim a reasonable amount of care, their" seasonal . 1 11 11 .r. . icHuutiHcnu snouian tii aaa up to more than paint and a new turnbuckle or two.
