Built of wood in 1992, 33feet. Owner R. Leask. I think it's a one off. Canadian Registry dosn't give a designer or type.
Your best guess?

Found a reference to a Loon I designed by G. Heal of Victoria B.C. in 1921. He latter designed a LoonII but I can't find a reference to it for size. Loon I was 20 feet. I assume Loon II was larger. This boat is registered at 11 metres ( more like 36 feet than 33) and looks like it could be from the same era.
It's the only "registered vessel" of that name. There is an Arctic Loon and a Loon III. Others with that name will be licensed or documented.( registered means H.M.ElisibethII owns 1/64 th of your boat, and NO she dosn't pay 1/64 of the bills but I think you can use copper bottom paint until the Royal Navy stops.)There seems to be a surprisingly large number of sailboats named Loon II

If Loon II is still there you should row over and ask Bob how far off the mark we all are!

Sounds like the Treasure is onboard. At least she's out there with you. Enjoy Treasure Cay
As we traveled through the Whale Cut and anchored at Green Turtle Cay, I saw the Loon II motoring north. I hailed him on the radio and got an answer to the make of boat. Owner built or "Junks gone wild". He said he added the gaff rigged sails as part of a school project but wasn't finished. I didn't want to press for more info.
He expected to cross to St. Augustine and then await a window for Bermuda. We may see him again.
