One of the best of Robert Clark's offshore racer designs, built in the Netherlands in 1958 of steel.
The photo on the right shows how well balanced she is.  With as much sail as she needs, and dragging a quarter wave as well as the lee stanchions (and the feet of the man in the lee scuppers) the helmsman has the tiller amidships and shows no sign of having to fight the helm.
