Off Center Harbor's Remarks

Herreshoff 12-1/2s are about everybody’s favorite small family daysailer. This particular one has had a lot of work done on her in recent years; her price is right; and her owner says he is a “motivated” seller.

Description from Boat's Main Listing

This Herreshoff 12-1/2 lacks a hull number, but is believed to be #1482, built for Lincoln Davis of Marblehead, MA, by Herreshoff Manufacturing Company in 1939.

I have owned boat since 2014 and moored it outside my home in Castine, ME. It has been stored in my garage for 2 years. Up until last summer I sailed it regularly. Since then I’ve been physically limited and must curtail my activities. The asking price is flexible. Let’s just say owner is highly motivated.
