Full Details
Design Brief
Blue is a Custom performance racing sailboat with movable water ballast. She was designed by Paul Bieker of
Riptide Design in Seattle Washington and built in 2012 by Jim Betts of Betts Boats in Anacortes Washington.
Blue is a one off custom boat, built using carbon fiber and Divinycell foam core sandwich construction. The design
incorporates movable water ballast, a deep bulb T keel, and twin outboard rudders. Blue is sloop rigged with a
carbon fiber mast and boom w/ ECsix Carbon Standing Rigging.
Blue was designed to allow for safe, fast offshore sailing with a smaller crew. The design includes many creature
comforts to ensure the crew is well looked after. She boasts a comfortable interior for after race socializing and
passage making, with easily removable upholstered cushions, forced air furnace and 12v refrigeration.
She has an extensive inventory of primarily North Sails, modern calibrated B&G instruments and is powered by a
2018 Volvo inboard diesel engine.
Blue is a turn key offshore race boat which can be sailed with limited crew due to her water ballast system. She has
an impressive recent race record including being the 3rd boat to finish the 2022 Pacific Cup.
