Help to identify a small dinghy sailing rig?

I was recently given a mast and sail complete with a rolling reefing headsail but have no idea what boat it is from. It looks to be a gaff rig with the letters WW on the sail with the letters overlapping. Any ideas where I can research the sail markings. Would say that it would be of a medium sized dinghy.
 
I can't find this insignia in any of my references. Maybe a sail maker can help?

The only two boats that might fit the bill are the Water Wag (gunter rigged boat from Dublin) or the West Wight Scow (lug) both having W... W.... in their name but apparently neither of these had any insignia on their sails.
 
That looks a possibility.
