a reader of my Sunfish sailing blog sent me a couple pictures of a mystery boat that they own. any clues?
- the reader described it as a scow, similar to a Butterfly
- approximately 12-feet long, wood construction
- aluminum mast and spars for a lateen rig
- a (ridiculously!) large rudder and centerboard, also built of aluminum
- looks like it has some mast stays, and the mast would sit on a base fixture (the mast doesn’t go through the deck into a mast step)
- it seems like the mast stays would really limit how you can adjust the rigging points for the lateen sail
