Bieker Riptide 1996 Boats Review and Specs

Year: 1996  
Manufacturer: Swiftsure Yachts
Price: US$460,000  


ROCKET SCIENCE is fully equipped and ready for a world circumnavigation! $40,000 price reduction September 2011.  ROCKET SCIENCE was conceived on the drafting table of Paul Bieker (U.S Naval Architect & structural engineer for BMW Oracle’s winning 2010 America’s Cup challenge) as a very fast offshore/ocean-going cruiser. Constructed in Durocore honeycomb core below the waterline, Baltec core above the waterline and a Nomex composite deck, she is not only strong but very light. Much like the current breed of Volvo Ocean 70’s, her hull features hard chines and twin rudders for excellent stability and fingertip control. In addition, her high aspect fin keel/bulb arrangement and 200 gallon water ballast tanks to port and starboard provide excellent righting moment. Weighing in at 21,000 lbs (light ship), Rocket Science is strong, fast and very capable of plugging off double digit speeds on a regular basis. But don’t let her thoroughbred pedigree fool you. This is a seriously proven offshore cruiser that is fully equipped for world circumnavigation. From 2005 to the current date, her owners have spent well in excess of her current asking price bringing her to pristine condition. The list of items completed is too long for this page. ROCKET SCIENCE has an auxiliary engine repower, full paint job, new Hall Spars carbon rig and a fresh set of sails. A carbon hard dodger was added providing excellent protection while on deck and the twin wheels make boarding from the transom and steering from the high side a piece of cake. With SSB, Spectra Watermaker, Robertson Autopilot, B&G instruments, onboard computer with software, 8 man life raft, and much more, ROCKET SCIENCE is ready to go. ROCKET SCIENCE was built to ABS slamming standards for high speed military craft and Det Norske Veritas standards for high speed offshore craft. She is truly seaworthy, built to endure serious ocean sailing and able to sustain hull integrity in the case of hitting a log or container at 14 knots. The end result has not turned away from cruising comfort: good accommodations, places to gather or curl up and read a good book, a great seagoing galley and plenty of space for all the necessities. ROCKET SCIENCE is currently in Mexico from a ready and willing to head out for a second time on aworld cruise. Again… why go slow? Under her prior owners, ROCKET SCIENCE crossed the Atlantic averaging over 9 knots on autopilot. All but two days were over 250 nautical miles with the exception crossing through the Bermuda High. She logged several days at around 290 nautical miles which equates to an average speed of over 12 knots. Her owner reports momentary speeds near 30 knots and many hours over 16 knots in comfort, safety and in full control. Much of their sailing was done under working sails (main and jib alone), most often reefing at night.   Below are notes from the log of the Atlantic crossing: 30 May 2008 Late morning, a light wind picked up and we were able to cut off the engine and have been sailing since. The wind slowly clocked around past our beam, and we launched the spinnaker. For a while we were making 7.8 knots in 6.5 knots of true wind. We’re back to main and jib now under beautiful blue skies. The seas are a big slow swell coming in from the west. 15 June 2008 Last night’s sailing was beautiful with a river of moonlight off the port bow, a low planet shining brightly just aft near the horizon, and the Milky Way filling the sky. We doused the storm spinnaker before dark as the wind picked up to the high-t
