looking for: sailing dinghy kits for community group

[paul oman]

Hello

Looking for 'low cost' kit boats (sailing dinghy) that a group of folks could
build and sail/race on a small town pond. I know boats like the optimist
dinghy got started this way, but are there any such 'kits' now available and
affordable? I assume the kits would include cut wood, hardware, sails etc.

thanks

What $ amount would you consider affordable? The Nutshell kits in two different sizes are available through Woodenboat.

Paul,
You could contact the folks at Newfound in Bristol New Hampshire. They can be found also in WB Magazine. This link may work:
