That's it; it is a TRAPEZ class dinghy. This was a high
performance all-purpose dinghy designed by Paul Elvstrom and
built by his company; not very many here in the US (in fact
I'm a little surprised there's any). It was capable of being
rigged as a cat for single handing or a sloop for two;
intended to be an international & Olympic class for the
truest possible one-design competition.

It was a pretty nice boat but IMHO never really matched the
470 for 2 or the Contender for 1.

My guess would be Elvstrom's single hander trapeze design called
Trapez.

Brian Whatcott Altus OK

Thanks DSK,
It's teh exact same boat.

So it seems to be a little old and in a class of its own.

Txs for the help.
