Håkan Kellner and his brother Rickard built the boat together with Jan Gustavsson at Rosättra during nights and weekends. In the summer of 1968 they sailed the Olympic qualification sailings and also the Europeans in Switzerland.
In the autumn -68 Nathorst bought the boat and named her Tomatoe. He is believed to have put a separate rudder on the boat in 1970.
