Comanche 100.

- Comanche, designed by Guillaume Verdier, and winner of the John H. Illingworth Trophy, for being the first across the finish line at Hobart. Illingworth was the creator of the Sydney-Hobart Ocean Race, which was established in 1945. He also won that race on Rani.

- I worked for John Illingworth in the mid-sixties. You can check on this Blog: Mentors.
















- PS: Pure speculation, of course, but I am designing my own inspired design, the Mohican, since I think of myself as one of the last survivors of the Yacht Design Trade, before AI. destroys everything.
Unless you want to call me Uncas.


- Starting point.
