Design 1380 Rip Tide

Suzy Wong

Six boats were built to this design at various shipyards. I cant identify the name of hull #2, but in addition to Rip Tide, we have yachts Sara, Suzy Wong, Starbuck and Khira built in Germany, Denmark and Italy. Theyre beautiful boats. Heres an article about 4 ex-soldiers sailing Suzy Wong (shown above) back from Hong Kong after the war. Please double click for zoom.


Here are the plans.
