i searched NADA guide and found a '72 dolphin sr. made by now defunct 1972 "DOLPHIN UNIVERSAL PLASTIC PROD." they did not have a listing for a '73
The dolphin senior was like a sunfish, but an inch or two longer and wider. Two adults can sail her. Three might sink her.... I had one as a kid, and LOVED it. Too bad they don't make them any more. More powerful than a sunfish.
Dragging a dinghy behind a sailboat depends entirely on the distance and location of the cruise and the weather. For instance towing the dinghy behind on a short afternoon coastal cruise in protected waters in calm weather may be fine, however towing a dinghy from the East Coast of the United States to the Caribbean would be difficult and the dinghy may be lost.

a dinghy would be a small (6 to 16 foot) sailboat, these can have almost any sail rig. the type of rig you described is called a sloop. a sloop is a sailboat with a triangular mainsail and a jib (this sail configuration is called a marconi rig, or bermudian rig), and are very common. so a small, one masted vessel with a mainsail and jib would just be called a sloop, or dinghy.
