What Is It?

Seen in Valencia, the first one to properly identify this classic gets a shirt from UK Halsey Sails, the sponsor of this week's What Is It contest. Do you have a candidate for the contest? Send it in!

Not big enough for a J; only about 70-80 feet. looks to be timber, or a bloody expensive fake paint job. Too much freeboard for a Square Metre boat. Overhangs too big for an ocean racer of the era. Could it be a converted or cruising 12 metre from the 30's or 40's? Hmmmm?

One would think that Hugo Stenbeck's yacht would carry a Swedish flag.
