Beverly Dinghy, 11'6", designed Herreshoff

  • Classic late 1950s/early 1960s Beverly Dinghy for sale. $1,900

  • Length: 11'6"
  • Beam: 4'6"
  • Sail area: 66sq.ft.
  • Weight: Approx. 180-200lbs

    Designed by Sidney Herreshoff for the Beverly Yacht Club (MA) as a club racer and yacht tender and built by Cape Cod Shipbuilding. Polyester resin/glass construction with wood thwarts. A classic example of the Herreshoff family's signature wishbone collapsible rig.

    Original Herreshoff designed spruce detachable mast, half-wishbone boom/sprit, and all applicable bronze hardware. (Some blocks have been replaced over time)

  • Spars fit inside boat for easy storage and towing.
  • Cat rig, no stays, rotating mast. Set up in minutes.
  • Two leg-o-mutton sails, one possibly original, maybe, (it's old) and a new sail (2012) custom made for this unique rig. One reef.
  • 2012 owner-restoration on the boat included epoxy primer sealant and Interlux Brightsides paint for the exterior hull.
  • New Port Orford Cedar thwarts and centerboard trunk cap, and a new centerboard using the original bronze hardware.
  • Thwarts and cap are still untreated- you decide what you want to do with them. Some cosmetic surface moisture mold on wood thwarts from over the winter.
  • Rudder, one pair new oars, one pair bronze oarlocks.
  • All lines new: New England Ropes Sta-Set.
  • Air tanks are tight.
  • Two rowing stations for weight distribution if carrying passengers or cargo.
  • Accepts small outboard, but will need a transom backing plate of your design.
  • Rows nice, sails nice, and makes for a very nice tow-behind tender with good towing characteristics and an interesting pedigree.
  • Trailer is available for negotiable price.

    Looking for good home that will use and appreciate her for her history and uniqueness.

  • Near Concord, New Hampshire.
