Any ideas on the make & model?

I like the hard chines. Not New England pretty but dig those chines in and without a big keel and too much beam and you can work upwind. Kind of like a sharpie, but uglier.

Phil Bolger?
Ha. He was described by a writer at WBM jokingly as "the man who designed a dingy that could double as a cold frame for his tomatoes." I think he had a reputation for unconventional but practical designs.

Sailboatdata.com lists the designer as Bruce Kelley. His resume from SBD.com includes 2 Endeavors and 2 Mirages. Anyone the MORC rule produced some odd ducks.

They are fast little boats. I think won the MORC Nationals when they came out. Lindenberg 22. The Lindenberg 26 was a speedster of its day as well.
