This is a fiberglass sailboat and is about 13' long, 5' beam. The registraition for trailer says 1959. It has a swing keel that is some kind of metal. The mast and boom are a light weight wood. 2 people can lift the boat a little ways.
The rudder is wood too. The sails are in poor shape, they have picture of saturn I believe on the mainsail. I don't know if the sails are original.
As you can see, the boat has a very unusal sitting design. There are no markings or numbers on the hull at all. The boat has seats more like a car as in facing forward instead of sideways. There is no hin number on hull or paperwork. I have looked for years and have never found another boat like this. Any help would be nice.

Try this website (above) with the length, beam, and guesstimated weight (displacement) parameter and you may find the model/builder.

Pictures are too small to see it well: is it a sloop or kat rig? Looks kinda' like a Snark.
