Design 1068 Nevins Yawl

Golliwog - Hull #1
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.

Hull #10 - Cythlen
Owned by Briggs Cunningham

Here are the plans.


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


And finally here are a few interior shots of Bonne Amie (hull #2).
