I have been looking around in the used wood boat ads and listings for a Shaw 24.. Robert Shaw worked for Pearson yachts and at one time designed the Shaw 24, which was popular in the MORC races. It was a 24 ft LOA light displacement boat with a combination keel/centerboard, and could be rigged as a sloop or a yawl. Anyone heard of one, or seen one?

I believe the "original," TRINA, is/was for sale. These two links will get you some information on the design. The Shaw 24 was the basis for the fiberglass Sparkman & Stephens Dolphin (molded by several builders).
