Somewhat like an ‘Antiques Roadshow’ valuation then ! I guess £300 is good if you would rather have the cash instead of the dingy.

Depends on the variant

The most common being the K Type with provision for sails and mast to the least common – which is the lightweight version which was essentially just a simple dinghy and not much else. Then there’s the type that could accommodate an apron … etc. What have you got? Is it dated – or could it be a post war version?
