Wonder if it's a hull and deck design .. and if it has some sort of stringers/transom ?
Should be a easy rebuild .. compared to a CV23 or CV27 ..   :o   :D   ;)

Instant smile on my face when I saw this  :) we had one like it when i was young.  Best little sailboat ever made!  Started with a sunfish then one of these and then up to a catamaran.  The glastron ,by far was the best!!

Nice little craft, perfect for the no wake ponds we have around here.     Not sure why, but everytime I think sailboats, one of three images pop in my head, Tommy Boy, What about Bob, or caddyshack.

Blow boat received a new top coat today.
Tomorrow will be wet sand and buff.
