WOTAMA
WOTAMA is a 38' 6" auxiliary ketch, built 1967-1974 by Cyril and Margaret Wriede in Bundaberg, Queensland, Australia to the 1947 design of Edward R Weber, then of Norge Boats Inc, Darien CT (published in The Rudder, January 1950, pp 62-63). The plans show a fractional bermudan ketch rig with a self-tending jib, but she now carries a masthead ketch rig with a genoa and main and mizzen staysails.
