I was in Italy last week and saw a sailing dinghy 12-14ft long, looked like a
mini Wally, flush decking, carbon rig with fully battened sail, main sail only,
no jib. I believe it is made near Milan, does anyone know the company that
makes this? Thanks in advance...!

No, sorry but it looked like a very new design, only around for a year or
so....

Sounds like a Nauticalodi Truc

See page 39 of this months Y&Y.

Can't say I'm massively keen on that boat, it just looks wrong in every way.

It's kind of inbetween tradional and modern single hander,

personally ithink they should make all the boat look like wood ( just make the rudder out of the same and make the carbon spars look like that wood)

Shame they couldn't make the sail look like canvas too.

still looks like a nice boat though, simple layout as well.
