The Tech Dinghy is an American sailing dinghy that was designed by George Owen, a professor at Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), as a one-design racer and for sail training. It was first built in 1935.[1][2][3]

The Tech Dinghy design was later developed into the Intercollegiate dinghy by Paceship Yachts.[1][4]
