Patience
Description
The Patience is a sailboat designed by Swedish naval architect Tord Sundén (also spelled Tord Sunden; 1909–1999), a highly influential postwar designer best known for the International Folkboat (IF Boat) and refinements like the Marieholm 26, as well as his role in drafting plans for the original Nordic Folkboat. The Patience appears to be a lesser-documented or rare design in his portfolio (likely a small to mid-sized fiberglass cruiser or daysailer from the postwar era, emphasizing simplicity, seaworthiness, and light-air performance consistent with Sundén's style of blending traditional Scandinavian lines with modern materials).
