The Butterfly is a one-design sailing dinghy, originally designed for a crew of two, but now most commonly raced single-handed. It was designed in 1961 in Libertyville, Illinois by John Barnett. The 12-foot (3.7 m) hull is a scow design. The craft has an 18-foot (5.5 m) mast and a single mainsail with a 75-square-foot (7.0 m2) surface area.
