Notes
An adaptation of a William Atkin design, (specifically similar to INGRID, GOUCHO.)
The Mark II version featured a different rig (designed by Raymond Richards)
Number built by varying accounts: between 70 and 80 including those sold as bare hulls or kits.
Boats to this same design were built by others using various materials including wood and ferro-cement.
An early introductory builder's brochure from 1973 lists the following:
Displacement: 26,000 lbs
Ballast; 11,000 lbs
Sail area: 932 sqft
