I'm trying to work out who designed the smart looking ketch. Maybe someone has already worked it out? (I haven't read all the comments yet)

While looking I came across this yacht designed by "Rhodes" and was listed in Yachtworld
1935 Rhodes Narwhal Ketch

Yes, following the same long, lean principles as the sailboats. I followed his blog during their builds, great design and execution.

Carl Alberg.

So many designs...the man was prolific! And all seaworthy as hell!

Johann Tanzer. He built boats that were tough and fast. The Tanzer 22 was a game changer, a legendary boat. Over 2200 built! And still a great boat, half a century later... most of them still sailing.

Thanks. 249K. If Jim buys it for me I promise to throw the mizzen away. Also the wheel has to go for sure. Then everyone's happy.

Any as long as it floats. Just like a woman, there is beauty in all of them.

Holman and Pye, Laurent Giles, Robert Clark.

Ray Wall who was head designer at Camper & Nicholson before moving to Canada and becoming head designer at Canadian Sailcraft. He designed many great boats but they were under the Camper & Nicholson name.
