Flyer
Description
The Flyer sailboat designed by Philip Rhodes (Philip L. Rhodes) is a 10-foot (3.05 m) dinghy or small daysailer from his early portfolio (likely 1930s–1940s era, as Rhodes was prolific in small craft before WWII). It's a simple, lightweight daysailer—compact and easy to handle, probably intended as a tender, youth trainer, or club racer. Rhodes' designs often featured clean lines and efficiency (he influenced many classic American boats like the Rhodes 19, Bounty II, or Reliant series). The Flyer appears in sail dimension archives but lacks widespread production or class status—it's more of a "one-off" or limited custom design from his office.
