WIN a makeover for your boat!

Why should car owners have all the fun? There are plenty of tired old dinghies out there in serious need of a new image, so here at Yachts and Yachting we have lined up an impressive panel of experts who are poised ready to turn your boat into an impressive racing machine. All you need to do is convince us that your boat is the best candidate for pimping and we will arrange the rest, from sexy new Harken fittings and a complete new rig and sails by dinghy mast and sails experts Selden and P&B, to a visit to Pete Vincent's famous 'dinghy hospital' at West Country Boat Repairs. And we haven't forgotten the image side of things; Grapefruit Graphics and Gill will ensure that you look cool as well!

What do I need to do to enter?

It's simple to enter, all you need to do is fill in the entry form, including at least one digital picture of your dinghy.
