Peterson design #56 IOR 1/4 ton. (IOR 18′)
An ELITE version was introduced (1982) with a different interior layout and transom hung rudder. Later still was a more cruising oriented version called the SEAWAY 787. All shared the same basic hull. Built and mostly seen in Australia.
Commissioned by members of the Hull Y.C., (near Boston, MA USA) and also known as the HULL SEA BIRD. The class didn’t outlive World War II, but a single example was being restored in 2008. Thanks to Peter, who hosts an excellent website dedicated to the SEA BIRD, for supplying information on this yacht.
* Plans include 15 lbs of lead ballast.
