Herreshoff Buzzards Bay 18

The Buzzards Bay 18 was designed by Nathanael Herreshoff in 1903.  There are no known survivors of this boat.  She is 29' on deck, 18' on the waterline, displaces 4430 lbs, and has 472 square feet of sail.  She would be a good intermediate boat between the Buzzards Bay 15 and the larger Buzzards Bay 25.  The BB18 is one of the smallest designs of this type that have ample cabin space for occasional overnight use, and adequate displacement to accommodate either diesel or electric propulsion. 

She is very similiar in size and shape to Sparkman and Stephens Dark Harbor 20, but her increased beam adds considerably to the available interior and cockpit space.

This BB 18, is one of the most beautiful of all the Herreshoff Designs, and we are excited to announce that Hull #1, is currently under construction.
