I looked up your boat on the net and found nothing, you seem to be the only one offering information on it. Maybe you should start a thread about your boat so all the information can be gathered in one spot. You've got her looking nice!
I need to make a correction, according to sailboat data the Cape Dory Typhoon is stepped on (or through?) the cabin top, not in front of the cabin, visible in the elevation drawing at this link:
I don't know what I looked at, something very similar, or - doubtfully - they changed the location. I was looking at hull number #1 and #3 IIRC. Whatever I looked at had the mast in front of the cabin on the deck, something I'd never seen before.
Edit: I looked at Sea Sprites, similar looking and I guess I mixed up the names. Here is a link to the Sea Sprite on sailboat data:
Pretty nice little boats shown in this thread. Although most shown are small or coastal cruisers and not really micro cruisers. Here is a hard core micro cruiser, it's called a Paradox and they have sailed as far as Bahamas more then once. This is the site of the designer and you can actually get the plans from him to build one. Microcruising in the Bahamas I seen this a while back and thought it might be a fun project to get into if I have the time.

When you fart and it affects displacement, you might be on a microcruiser.
When pissing off the transom is a propulsion option, you might be on a microcruiser.
When you have to fold your nav station to create your berth to open up the mattress to use your galley while sitting on the head, you might be on a microcruiser.
The boat sails beautifully. But it's the interior layout that makes it feel so much bigger than it actually is. Also, a foot or so too big for the OP's criteria...
Here is small Danish classic. The Drabant 22. (6.6 m)
It was orignially launched in 1968 and, a couple of hundred were built until the mid 70'es.
They sail extremely well, and can still win trophys in local club matches.
I guess my Hunter 23.5 falls right on the line between micro & pocket cruiser. With it's water ballast system and 18" draft board up I can go places lots of others won't. A blue water boat she is not but coastal and gunk holing outings are what this boat does well. Very roomy cockpit and bunks even for me at 6'4".
Hi; You may of heard from me in another post since I recognize the picture of the Vic 18. I have one with a rudder problem. Do you have yours still? Mike
No mention of Westerly Warwick 21.5? I just bought one. 5'10" headroom , twin 850 lb bilge keels
