Can any one remember main sail insignia "ladybird

[mikewillis]

Can any one remember a main sail insignia marking at the top of the sail for class identification.
A LADYBIRD with 6 or 7 spots"this may be for Norwegian design dinghy 11ft 5inch.s beam 4ft 6inch.s.

There is also a small Mushroom at the bottom of both sails but this may be sail maker and a number 11 on the sail.
what a break through !

Mike,
Searched on Wiki for the Nowegian name of the ladybird,not very clear ,but the Swedish name is NYCKEPIGA. The Danish is MARIEHOHN,the American versions are the LADYBUG and the MAYBUG. Googled for the Ladybug one, as a dinghy, and got a Jim Michalak's design page with a 15ft dinghy, pretty, but not yours obviously (some odd looking boats on there too!).
Made an interesting 15 minutes anyway!

Tried another tack! There's a company called Mushroom Sails on 01255 670747 tel/fax that are located at Walton on the Naze, Essex perhaps they have a clue. Does the sail have a sail number at all, might indicate how many there might be.
