Carinita 20
Description
The Carinita 20 is a small sailboat (pocket cruiser/daysailer class) with very limited documentation available in English-language sources—it's quite obscure and appears primarily in niche sailboat databases and older German/European sailing contexts. It's described in some forums (e.g., WoodenBoat discussions) as related to or a variant/sister of the Anitra (a similar 20 ft design) and possibly tied to the popular German Carina series by designer Günther Thomat (from Marina-Werft, built 1962–1980, ~1,500 hulls, plywood hard-chine pocket cruiser ~18–20 ft range). "Carinita" may be a diminutive/variant name ("little Carina") for a specific model or home-build adaptation in that lineage—common in European small-boat scenes.
