The book is probably "The Nature of Boats", by Dave Gerr

Dave Gerr, a marine architect and columnist, wrote a pretty popular
book "The Nature of Boats" that's a compendium of columns.
It describes a "nesting dinghy", and gives plans. There's
a lot of plans on the net. B&B Yachts has a -family- of nesting
dinghy plans, and the 10' one is a type-raceable dinghy,
as well as constructible. It has finer lines than Gerr's.
There's also a preconstructed fiberglass dinghy available on
the west coast of the U.S.
