A stunning little 24ft Herreshoff design half-rater. Winifred is owned by East Coast old gaffer Brian Corbett who well into his 70's is still sailings in classic regattas around the UK. We caught up with Brian on a cold a grey summer day on the River Hamble.

Beautiful boat

Very interesting. Great insight into replica construction. I had the privilege to work on a 6 metre reconstruction when I was a teen, Hillhead, Hampshire on the Solent. Beautiful line.

A very sweet boat. I made the hardware for her years ago, and I am so glad she has found a loving owner. I was tempted to buy myself, but the distance was pretty daunting (and I do have a pretty satisfactory boat already). I hope there are more videos to come of her sailing free. Thank you Brian for putting this out there for the world to enjoy.

Bravo! I noticed the lovely hanging knees. Bronze? Nice work. :)

Hi Chris, I think the hanging knees are made of wood. Very difficult to make, very heavy and much stronger than needed if bronze.

Ah yes. A Capt. Nathaniel G. Herreshoff design from a NGH half model, built at Herreshoff's yard in Bristol, Rhode Island in the 1890's. The advantage of designing from a half (or whole) model is that your fingers feel the shape, not just your eyes.

I wouldn't want to accidentally jibe that mainsail. Looks like that would pull the mast right out of the keel! BEAUTIFUL boat.

Wish he would take the outboard off. I would think it would sail better.

The International Yacht Restoration School of Newport Rhode Island just completed an almost exact replica from N.G. Herreshoff's original plans, it is for sale here: www.iyrs.edu/about/boats-for-sale/herreshoff-wee-winn

You put an outboard engine on a Herreshoff . Unforgivable 👎

It looks like it's on a non-invasive removable bracket, which I would guess is taken off when appropriate i.e. at shows or for racing. He's not a young man, and I don't blame him for adding a bit of safety/back-up for himself, and to keep this lovely antique off the rocks should things go wrong.
