	[No title]
		Snipe as it is now is still one of the most popular classes on the global level and I do think it, as a less acrobatic dinghy, has a special and important role in the sport of sailing.
		The beauty of the Snipe class is that the used boats are still competitive, yet not as costly as a new one.
		The classical snipe may be the right boat where light winds and no waves prevail but it is not the best for sailing in places where sea and moderate to strong winds are the constant.
