Notes

Schedule precisions - 15.04.2014 by Sebastien Schmidt
Modifications of the hull shapes studied and built during winter 1994-1995.
Design story - 30.09.2007 by Sebastien Schmidt
"John B. once again" is based upon SUI-169 "Chlika-Chlika" designed in 1989 together with Philippe Meier.
The forward half of the hull shape has been completely re-designed for a better lake-like choppy waves (Chlika was designed for the long swell of Australia and Bahamas), that is concretely narrower and deeper entry lines.
Quasi sister-ship - 30.09.2007 by Sebastien Schmidt
"John B. once again" has a quasi sister-ship :
SUI-192 "Artemis X - Shaï" to Roni Pieper then Stefan Zlot, only the keel was different.
