I don't know a lot about this boat, other than that it's not a Carl Alberg design.
The brochure credits George McVay with the design. Paceship built a
large range of yachts from dinghies up to about 32' many of which George
designed.
McVay was a prolific designer and
at one time had his own company - McVay Yachts.

South: The Endurance Expedition
Shackleton's near-fatal journey to the Antarctic has received a
lot of press in recent years. This is Shackleton's own account—quiet,
understated, and riveting. It also describes the travails of the Aurora
expedition, intended to lay the groundwork for Shackleton on the other
side of the continent.
