Hi all, I am intrigued to know what class / ame is for this Dinghy, I think it is about 13 foot long. 2 sails. Quite old. I searched the insignia online and could not find it. I think it is manufactured in Australia but i dont know. Does anyone know what this boat is>?

Thank you

From the sail insignia, looks like it could be a Vagabond, the Aus version not the UK.

...and guessing that the scenery isn't Australian, INA might well indicate an Indian Navy craft.

Lord knows where that teak came from.  Certainly not from DeHavillands.

And neither did the wind transducer on the masthead.

Who even cares what it is other than to work out the most green means of recyling it, burning obviously not ideal.
