Design 112 Windigo and Ptarmigan
on Sunday, February 1, 2015
These are two of the big yawls that were designed as ocean going cruising boats but eventually became great ocean racing yachts. These sisters were designed out of our Boston office, with Aage Nielsen as lead designer. The construction contracts went to the Quincy Adams Yacht Yard of Quincy, Massachusetts as Henry Nevins, the natural to build them, was just too busy. In the end it was a blessing due to the proximity to our Boston office and subsequent ease of oversight. The year was 1935.
Theyre just beautiful boats.
Here are the plans.
