Nor'Star produced kits for owner completion and also ready-to-sail boats, built under contract by Westerly Marine of Santa Ana, California. In 1977, Nor'Star ended production and the molds and tooling were purchased by Pacific Seacraft of Washington, North Carolina , which produced the design until 1998.
The boat is 11 ft 11 in (3.63 m) long, and capable of accommodating four persons on a daysail or one to two for overnighting or extended cruising. Craig Wagner and Josh Colvin, editors of Small Craft Advisor Magazine , teamed up with noted New Zealand boat designer, John Welsford , to create what they call a "Mini Microcruiser" sailboat.

Interior seating is port and starboard just aft of the "V"-berth at the companionway. A head is located under the aft end of the "V"-berth. [3]
The boat is supported by an active class club that organizes racing events, the Mini Ton Class. [4]In a 2010 review Steve Henkel described the design as, "sleek-looking" and noted that boat "had some racing successes in Long Island Sound in her first year, but for some reason not many units were sold, perhaps because the marketers appeared not to push the boat's possibilities as a pocket cruiser.
