The Ingrid 38 represents the quintessential doubleended, heavydisplacement cruiser, a design that traces its lineage back to the legendary "Redningskoite" (lifeboat) designs of Colin Archer. Originally penned by William Atkin in 1934 and later refined for fiberglass construction by Jerry Husted of Bluewater Boats in Woodinville, Washington, the Ingrid 38 was conceived for one purpose: to carry its crew safely across any ocean, regardless of the conditions. With its massive 25,000pound displacement and a fullkeel profile, the vessel is a "thoroughbred of the old school," prioritizing ultimate seaworthiness over the agility or lightair speed found in modern performance cruisers.
