All About Fun and Performance
The D-ONE is a modern single-handed dinghy designed to deliver pure excitement on the water. Created in 2009 by Phil Morrison, it brings together the physicality of solo sailing with the dynamic performance of gennaker-powered downwind speed.
With a responsive hull, high-quality carbon rig, and sails by North Sails, the D-ONE is all about speed, control, and fun — for sailors who want the thrill of performance without compromising on manageability.
