Notes:
Originally called the COTUIT MOQUITO, these boats have been sailed on the waters of Cotuit Bay, Barstable, MA,(USA), for nearly 100 years, making them one of the oldest continuously sailed one-design racing boats in the world.
Originally based on a design by the first builder, Stanley Butler, and finalized in the mid 1920's by Edwin Mairs.
