I like her for the same reason but also looks like a little cork - would pop out of any weather at sea. Set up for single-handling. Seems like a boat you'd feel safe in in all conditions. Looks like steel but maybe not. I think this photo is taken off Alaska.

This looks to me like a cartwright design. I can't remember the fellow's first name. Was it Ben or Gerry? Anyhow, he liked to design full keel boats with raised decks and dog houses way aft (like this one). His major audience was the cruising community from the mid to late seventies IFIRC. I used to read his ideas a lot, first in 't
The Rudder' then 'Cruising under sail' magazines.

I hope this helps

Bob

smells like an ADAMS design, but I am only guessing....

Judging by the canoe stern, shape of the doghouse, flush deck and stepped sheerline my guess is a Ron Swanson design (Australian), maybe a larger version of Carmen.
