Looks like an IOD to me. There is an active fleet there. There was a local

I guess glass is a good thing there. I crewed on an IOD in Bermuda in
1965 as sewer man (just picked up from the jetty near the RBYC).

The race went to St George and back. I had to pump bilge continuously
whenever we were close hauled as water poured between the planks.

As soon as we rounded a windward mark, the leaking would stop. I
wouldn't have given that boat 5 more years without a serious
restoration.
