Notes historiques
Construction: planked with port orford cedar and fastened with copper and bronze. Pete Leenhouts states "She was extensively overhauled by the Port Townsend Shipwright's Co-Op in Port Townsend WA between April 8th and September 16th, 2015. RIPTIDE was completely recaulked by John Zimmer of Palouse Boatworks, and painted and varnished by Diane Salguero of Salguero Marine Services. Work has continued each year since then by the Port Townsend Shipwright's Co-Op to return the vessel to her "look of the mid-1930's, which is the earliest photo we have of her. RIPTIDE's hailing port is Port Ludlow WA, and since 2021 she is moored at that marina."
