The first Dragon was built in 1929 in Gothenburg, Sweden. The
sailing qualities of the Dragon are so good that the boat is
practically used for cruising and regatta all over the world, and
especially in Europe, where it has become extremely popular. In the
course of time, the dragon has gradually been changed into a
regatta boat, and it is no longer built in accordance with the
original specifications. Both the cabin and the canvas have been
changed, so today it is actually only the hull, which is original.
In 1948 the Dragon was made an olympic class of boats, and all
measures were stipulated by the International Yachting Union. Since
1929 this type of boat has participated in numerous Scandinavian
and International regattas and it is still one of the most popular
boats.
