What is this 11' sailboat with fox head on sail

I'm trying to figure out what I bought. I was originally told it was a 11' Rhodes Robin. But no Robin on sail, no deck-stepped mast, and no deck.

About 11' long fiberglass, centerboard, see photos. Any ideas?

It may of been in the Medina, WA park department fleet at 1 time. May have been called "KNOTT" and sailed by the Medina, Washington Parks Department, (home area of Bill Gates).

Any thoughts? Thanks

The boat you bought is a Vixen, see: http://sailboatdata.com/viewrecord.asp?clas
We have a Vixen and she is very quick in light air. Tender in gusts. Roomy for a 10' boat. You are lucky to have found one.
