Rügenjolle was the name of a small open sailing dinghy with a sword and a mainsail and foresail . It is also suitable for rowing or can be powered with an outboard motor. The hull is made of plastic ( GRP ) and its shape is based on a bricked wooden boat. The Rügen dinghy was built in the GDR in Lauterbach on Rügen in two sizes.
The boat is still manufactured as a so-called "Kombiboot Rügen" by the shipyard "Wieker Boote GmbH" on Rügen. Since the beginning of the millennium, the same shipyard has also built a sailing boat with the name “Kajüt-Rügenjolle”, but this is a completely different type of boat.
