I’m pretty excited about my first find of the season. It sat in a barn loft in Massachusetts for the last 32 years and it’s dusty but dry. But what is it? There is no HIN on the stern or anywhere else (so it’s pre-‘72) No insignia on the lateen-rigged sail. No markings of identification anywhere! It is 14’ long, but wider than the Sunfish at 54” and with a much larger cockpit. There’s a great storage area forward of that. The coaming is mahogany. The bow is squared like a scow. The mast and spars are maybe 2’ longer than the Sunfish. I guess with all these differences it’s not really a clone, but I am totally stumped. The seller didn’t provide any insight except to say that it has only been sailed on Sebago Lake in Maine, where he bought it used many years ago.
Any thoughts from all my friendly experts out there?
