Model identification:
"Newly identified boats designed from this model. Overlaying model 1128 and drawing 155-000 (HH.5.12758) for #193006es [Unbuilt Day Sailing Boat] of January 1930 shows a near perfect match with this model. The Great Depression of the 1930 appears to have made this design non-marketable and no boat was ever built. A smaller boat appears to then have been developed, #1164s Louise Ann (now in the collection of the Herreshoff Marine Museum). A stretched profile of Louise Ann's construction plan 076-169 (HH.5.05602) from August 1930 and this model shows a very good match, except for the underwater configuration which was changed to a shorter keel and balanced rudder."
