This 5.5 was designed by Berret Design team... But in fact her real designer among the team is Olivier Racoupeau: he designed her in 1989-1990 (file #141), orienting her characteristics for a good breeze boat, making her more fluent in the Atlantic than in lakes (and she has proven it in the West Indies!). her rudder was re-designed longer and thinner in 1992.
