Snipe
Fleet 705
Carlyle
Lake is the home of Snipe Fleet 705. The Snipe is a 15-1/2 foot,
2 person, one design racing dinghy with a rich history. Designed by William
Crosby in 1931, it has evolved into a modern, tactical racing dinghy with
fleets around the world. Although the Snipe Class has some of the best
competition in the world, the class has not lost sight of the importance
of social events and, in fact, many regattas are as well known for their
parties as they are for their racing. The essence of the class is summed
up by its motto:
