Kite (sailboat)

The Kite is an 11' 7" cat-rigged sailing dinghy (class inactive) designed circa 1962 by Carter Pyle as an Olympic Finn class trainer. Like that era's Finns, the Kite's mast is flexible, unstayed Sitka spruce and spruce boom.
Built from 1963 to 1973 original builder, Newport Boats in Newport Beach, California and Mobjack Manufacturing in Gloucester, VA, and East Coast Boats on Long Island, and Lancraft, Santa Ana, CA, the latter two after Brunswick acquired the company, to 1973 or so. Some 1200–1300 plus (I own hull 1306) were built. Build-rights were acquired by the Browning Arms Corp in 1965 and later sold to Brunswick.
The Kite is a one-design planing dingy, self-bailing, easy righting for 2 people or as a single-handler. Planes easily. Well made, sturdy, with boom vang, out- and downhauls for sail control, not a board boat like a Laser or Sunfish.
Specs: LOA 11" 7" Beam 5' Draft 3.5" - 3.5' SA hull 160 - 215 pounds all up.
==Hull==

The picture to right seems to have Kite hull but spars not typical. No logo, class number. May be Newport prototype.

Second picture is outline of one-design class Kite.
Fiberglass deck and hull, hollow between, with foam flotation. Deck molded-in nonskid, wide gunwales (rails). Most had teak rub rails but later models had stainless rail.
The boat is open, no decked-over areas. The rails (deck topsides or gunwales) are 10 inches wide at the beam. A mast step is molded into the deck and the mast supported by cast aluminum bracket attached to the bow section. A flared spray molding extends along the forward deck section aft.
Mid-boom traveler, Nicro-Fico blocks and hiking straps standard.
The transom has two drains and a single exterior interior air pressure release/drain plug. Early boats had a stainless steel ID plate with Newport Boats and hull number stamped onto it inside center of the transom; later the hull number was molded into the transom: "Kite XXX." Later boats have no plate or molded hull number. Some masts had the number also.
Optional: oarlocks, outboard motor bracket, and kick-up rudder.
