Design No. 390

30' x 21'8" x 7'9" x 4'6" Stock aux sloop
1934




 
 
Tivet may have been hull # 1 of this (#390)  design.  She was purchased by Fred S. in 1940 in Florida and sailed back to Norfolk VA. Fred raced her successfully in Chesapeake Bay races for 27 years. He sold her in 1967, gauging that she was  loosing her competitive edge, compared to fiberglass boats. 

Her next owner sailed her back to Florida and kept her at Key West.  
 
 


 

This pretty sloop, now called Gannet, was built 1959 and has been sailing in Lake Michigan.
There is a good chance she is design #390.
