Design 1068 Nevins Yawl

Owned by Sail Maker Colin Ratsey
This pretty little centerboarder is so very typical of the period. The design was developed for Nevins to be built as a series production run for efficiency of construction (and cost savings as a result). 13 boats were built by Nevins to this design between 1955-1960. Not a bad run.

Here are the plans.


Here is Indigo (hull #4) nearing completion at Nevins.
