A Sloop Dinghy and a Thunderbird
The Thunderbird class sailboat was designed in 1958 by Seattle Washington naval architect Ben Seaborn,[1] in response to a request from the Douglas Fir Plywood Association (now APA - The Engineered Wood Association) of Tacoma, Washington for design proposals for a sailboat that would "... be both a racing and cruising boat; provide sleeping accommodations for four crew; be capable of being built by reasonably skilled amateurs; provide auxiliary power by an outboard motor that could be easily removed and stowed; and out-perform other sailboats in its class. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thunderbird_26
I do not know much about the dinghy except it has a lovely lapstrake hull.
