Notes:
The earliest of many PANDORA 'variants' that continued to built into the 1990's. One of the most successful small fiberglass cruisers/racers ever.
(Derived from TROTTER which was, in turn, a version of the RANDMEER daysailer with a cabin.)
Built at the designers yard as well as number of others around the world.
In the UK it evolved as the PANDORA, PANDORA INTERNATIONAL, PANDORA 700 and a number of others that share origins with this basic design.
Designer
- E. G. Van de Stadt (1910–1999)
