- PART THREE - Jock Williams raced IODs in his early career and built several glass ones at his yard. Today, JWBoats cares for about half of the Northeast Harbor Fleet. International One Design fleets are actively raced in
twelve locations around the world. Representatives from each fleet compete annually in a World Championship,
the venue of which rotates between the fleets. As with most early one-design boats, the conversion to fiberglass
hulls occurred for the IOD fleets in the ’60s and ’70s. Of the twenty-seven IODs from the Northeast Harbor Fleet,
almost all are original wood boats.
They sail like a Dragon but better.
Is this boat the old 5.5 meter race boat?
No, IOD are one-design and the old woody were built in Germany by A&R. The 5.5 was not one-design, but designed to a formula as were 12 meters and 6 & 8 meter class. en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/International_One_Design
