How long? What beam? Does it have a jib (your photo cuts off the deck at the bow)? Does the mast have spreaders? etc.

Answers to these questions might make it possible to look it up somewhere.

O'Day made a 15' boat called the "Flying Saucer" in the late 60's that looks similar to that. It had aluminum centerboard and rudder also.

The fying saucer had an inclined bow, not a straight one like this boat.

You're right, I missed that. The rest is similar.
