Can,t remember exactly, but I met a Canadian couple+kids! in the seventies in Rouen, I seem to remember it was similar to my Westerly 25, i.e., standing under the hatch, stooping in the rest, very pretty boat.

A pretty Folkboat derivative by Eric Bergqvist that is nearer the original than most - but like the original has sitting headroom only.
