Sailing our new Ingrid 38 along the Maine coast

[@robertrinehart4985]

She's pretty. I grew up as a kid sailing on one of those. My parents bought her in Michigan when I was a young boy and we sailed her through the great lakes to the east coast all the way to the Caribbean in the 70s. Was amazing❤

What a nice Blue Water Boat. Obviously your work was not in vain. Having spent some time many years ago on Lake Erie sailing overnighters on a friends families 32' Sloop and learned a bit about sailing I have to say that your video brought those familiar pangs of longing to feel the spray, hear the sigh of the wind in the rigging and feel the slap of the water against the hull with the sails taut and the boat healed over a bit tight on the wind as the sun caresses my face. Ah. It just doesn't get better than that. Thank you so much for this video and stirring some very pleasant memories. God bless you folks. I sincerely hope that you're still enjoying that lovely boat. All the best to you with a prayer for fair winds and trailing seas.

Hope to move to usa and have the same boat one day.

Hello Jonathan. I sail an Ingrid (hull #45) in the Pacific North West; I keep the boat in Maple Bay, on Vancouver Island. If you're ever out this way, and we happen to be on the coast, please come for a sail. Great to see another fine Ingrid! Cheers.

[@jonathanlibby4222]

Thanks, not sure Ill be in the NW, but you never know. Lots of up grades, new sails, new dodger and new spars and all new electronics. Not sure when she will get launched as all the boatyards are closed to non-essentials (recreational boaters)

[@gavinferguson]

Lovely have you seen videos of the ingrid being built by the 2 lads in wood on KZbin acorn to Arabella

[@jonathanlibby4222]

Yes,Alex visited my boat last year, to see one close up. They declined to go sailing with me, they wanted to wait to sail their own for their first experience with an ingrid.

[@yzScott]

Love the red sails, but I've been fooled by some before. Entering the channel near Newport, RI from the open Atlantic, there was a red-sailed boat just about where I was looking for our channel marker. There was some brief confusing as my channel marker was "seemingly adrift." As we got a little closer and our angle changed to the sails, the problem became apparent. Still sailing?

[@clayfarnet970]

You found your pot of gold at the bottom of the rainbow. She's beautiful. I'd love to see a video with all of the new improvements. Fair winds. P.S. I subscribed just incase.

Ingrid owes much to the Colin Archers ideas

[@jeremyyork3538]

Beautiful! What's the hull material?

[@jonathanlibby4222]

It’s fiberglass

[@wendierafferty1568]

We have owned our Ingrid, JAGA II, since 2014. Would love to communicate with you. We sailed away from New Zealand in 2017 and we are now in the Caribbean the second time.

[@tfleiter]

We have a late production Ingrid 38 - located in Baltimore on the east coast.

[@ryanboeding1318]

Wow what a beautiful boat! How do you like that double edged hull(not sure what the real term is)? And that huge tiller, how does she steer a course? I have the chance to get one for free but it needs a huge amount of work. Just wondering if this might be the bluewater boat I have been thinking!! Would love to sail from Cape Cod up to Novia Scotia or further, and my Catalina 25 just won't handle that I am afraid.

[@jonathanlibby4222]

@ryanboeding1318 this boat has been on my bucket list for many years. Finally found it in Lake Michigan . The hull shape is called a double Ender. Breaking waves from the stern don’t slam into the transom, but break evenly as it does on the bow. This boat was designed for offshore sailing. The large rudder, stern hung, is very powerful and frequently the tiller can be left alone and you can trim the sails to steer the boat.

[@ryanboeding1318]

@@jonathanlibby4222 Have you been in the Gulf of Maine in the Winter? I hear the seas can get rough at that time of year?

[@jonathanlibby4222]

@@ryanboeding1318 Sailing from November on is very sketchy in the gulf of Maine. Lots of wind, waves and can have freezing rain if not snow. The water temp drops to low 50s and high 40s making the chill factor with a 20 kt breeze fairly unpleasant . My boat insurance makes me take her out before November 1st and can't go back in until May 1st (statistically highest rate of catastrophic events historically) I don't mind, its fairly miserable anyway accept for the occasional nice day. Not worth the misery.

[@ryanboeding1318]

@@jonathanlibby4222 Yeah i was curious, when we have had some of those strong winds I looked up the National Weather Service reports.....waves up to 20 feet!

[@fredliperson9171]

Nice..

[@ronvandermolen8676]

He bought it, Hull deck and bulkheads glassed in. He upgraded the motor. We built most of the teak and interior from scratch.. I think I have some pictures.. I'll look for them,it was back in the early 80's.

[@jonathanlibby4222]

That would be great. Did he also add the 2 extra 25 gallon steel fuel tanks in the engine room? The teak is still beautiful and so much of it. The Masts are the box sitka spruce, still as good as the day they were made. Did he sail it much or mostly motoring? The 40 year old sails were all in "good" condition when I purchased her.

[@ronvandermolen8676]

@@jonathanlibby4222 yes, he did all the stays rigging and teak everything. The tiles by the stove were hand made just for that boat. And I've been up that 55 foot mast. He sailed it all over lake Michigan, he had it up in Whitehall first. Then moved it,we both had sailboats and would water winter them at ancrorage marine,they had bubblers.

[@jonathanlibby4222]

You guys did an amazing job as the teak all looks professional factory built. The tiles also are amazing. I had to remove the paraffin heater and Im installing a propane heater to go with the propane cook stove to make it one fuel system. I feel your pain with climbing that 55 foot mast. I have had to do it a couple of times while single handing for different reasons. I used the jib halyard and 2 ascenders with a bosuns chair. I also will be replacing the masts and boom with aluminum. I added a new jib and roller furling staysail this year and new mizzen and main is for next year. Hope you can find those pictures, thanks much for you information

[@silasderoma4726]

Thanks for that video. It was fun to watch! Can you share the specs of the boat? (Length, draft,beam?) Thanks again!

[@jonathanlibby4222]

Thanks for watching. It is an Ingrid 38, colin archer design. length 38 feet on deck, 47 with bow sprit. Beam 11 feet, draft 5'6". 24000 pounds with 8000 lbs internal lead. 871 Sq ft of sail with the Yankee, This winter I changed it to a 130% roller furling jib and a roller furling staysail which now gives me over 1000 sq ft of sail.

[@rimasmeleshyus6545]

Not long time ago in Honolulu, Hawaii was for sale Ingrid 38 some boat only $14,000 US dollars one month ago. But for me too big alone sailing sailing around the world . I am looking next year 2021 about 33 footer or 30 footer than perfect. Many thanks for video beautiful. Greetings from the garden island of Kauai I am on Facebook page. Welcome

[@mtcp504]

William Atkin, who drew the Ingrid, based in Colin Archer's designs, also drew the Eric, which is a 32', double-ended, Colin Archer-inspired ketch. It's basically a slightly downsized Ingrid. I'm not sure if anyone ever built molds for producing Erics in glass, but the plans are available from the family at atkinboatplans.com for a very reasonable price. The description states that the Eric offers 6 ft headroom throughout.

[@ianmartin9523]

Lovely, thank you

[@ronvandermolen8676]

I helped build that boat,,it was at torrason marine, repossessed,, The guy who owned it was named Mike..it was built in jenison from a bear hull..damn,,,, good for you

[@jonathanlibby4222]

Hi Ron That is amazing. I did purchase it from Torreson Marine in the fall of 2016 from an 84 year old gentleman. It was way too much boat for him, and just what I was looking for. Can you tell me how much the factory initially built and what was added later (IE: floor, deck, interior)? I know many ingrid 38s had different extents at which the factory finished and that the owner finished. The 1988 engine only had 2000 hours on it, does that sound about right from what you remember?

[@carstenf279]

Nice classic boat. Looks just like the boats from "the old days" here in Scandinavia. The full keel keeps it on course, so with correctly trimmed sails you hardly need the rudder.

[@jonathanlibby4222]

Your correct, this boat was designed in Norway in the late 1800S as a rescue vessel for the fishing fleet. There ares till several wood versions of the original design. In the 1970s they took the original design and tweaked it to accommodate a fiberglass version

[@sailronin]

Atkin's best design, the Ingrid. I sailed one from Hawaii to San Diego...in 1969.

[@d.cypher2920]

I have a real question: i was thinking about purchasing a sailboat at a good distance also, from my home. *please give me a rough ballpark of your cost to have the Ingrid 38 trucked on that low flatbed trailer?!* Many places are IDEAL for sailboat buying economy. Some, are simply nonsensical, and i live in the latter. I'm from the Keys, and from key west, to key largo you could be in the right place, right time... and get a very reasonable sailboat for the price of a used car! Having it shipped to another state may indeed cost more. Obviously, most often you wouldn't want to attempt sailing it all the way home. Although I lived on a live-aboard for 9 years, I'm no blue water captain. I love sailing, and have couple thousand? Hours sailing just offshore, and in more protected areas, like Florida Bay. So... *basically an amateur* 😂😂

[@TimothyJBerry]

Such beautiful photographs! What kind of camera and lenses do you use? She’s a lovely boat - and from what I’ve read - seems she is regarded as one of the most seaworthy designs. Build plans for an Ingrid can be obtained from Atkinboatplans.com. I wish you many hours of joy!

[@jonathanlibby4222]

I have a cannon XLT, but most of the video was using go pro (hero silver). I have new footage on the ingrid facebook site using a drone Mavic pro. I purchased her because of that exact reputation. I have since replaced all the sails, all the spars, running and standing rigging and rewired the entire boat including the diesel. It is my dream boat, she can average half the wind speed up to about 8 kts of speed.The windier it is the more she seems to enjoy it.
