Yay. Yes it's a "Tasman Twenty" Trailer Sailer.
One of these was actually built in my garage in NZ before I moved over here.

She was Queen of the North. On March 22, 2006, with 101 persons aboard, she failed to make a planned course change, ran aground and sank. Two passengers bodies were never found. Anyone to go...
