Thought there might be some interest in the lines for this old design. Ran across them in some old files and scanned for possible use.

These will be small file size so I can post, but I can email the much larger JPG to anyone interested.

Awwww - there is more to sailing than the AC classes. [:D]

For what it is worth, the lines are for a DRAGON Class that (I believe) was intended to be built to 60 inches overall.

I don’t think thats a Dragon hull if you’re referring to the Dragon class. The Dragon has a more “old-fashioned” hull if memory serves-with a rudder attached to the keel like a J boat… Looks a little wide but maybe an older 5.5 meter?
UPDATE: heres a link to an illustration of the Dragon:

Could be - no argument from me. I just saw it listed on the photo portion of the flyer as a “Dragon Sixty” - so assumed.

Hello Dick, does the Sixty hull plan (.jpg) still available? I’ve a hull but not the plan and I’d like to find one copy plus the construction manual…Thanks in advance!
