Any ideas as to what this may be?

Not sure about the contrasting planks but otherwise appears to be reasonably well made...from the photos!
Any ideas?

Re: Any ideas?
The description says modified Redwing. seems feasible.
Re: Any ideas?
Yes I saw that and it seems pretty close though from what I remember of Redwings (which isn't a lot) the transom seems much deeper.
I'll ask to seller for more info.

Re: Any ideas?
Having recently seen quite a lot of Redwing transoms at Tenby, it is most definitely a lot deeper at the stern than a redwing, and the bow is less plumb. Also of course the Redwing adopted trapeze many years ago - its not impossible this one predates that but... hmmm. And the planks look very like relatively recent repair work to me. Nevertheless an interesting boat for someone - but don't expect to do any class fleet racing!Michael4 wrote:Yes I saw that and it seems pretty close though from what I remember of Redwings (which isn't a lot) the transom seems much deeper.

Re: Any ideas?
Didn't get any definitive answers from the seller but have decided that she is too heavy for solo dinghy park hauling. We may never know...
