These boats are sisterboats to a Britton Chance jr. design: Z-114, Z-116, Z-117, Z-118, Z-121, Z-122 and G-21 which later became Z-127.
Upon an initiative of Thomas Sprecher, the form was built in Switzerland, carried to company Sommerfeld in Northern Germany, back then reknown specialists for cold laminated hulls. The boats were delivered and finally the form returned.
