28' Herreshoff S-Class Sloop (1920) - ALLEGRO

This example of the famous Herreshoff S-Class (HMCo hull no. 844) built in 1920 is a powerful sailor, beautiful and seaworthy. By any measure, the S-Class is unique among yachts and absolutely radical for her time. The S-Class was, and still is, one of Herreshoff’s most remarkable concepts. From the unique graceful curve of the mast, the proud shape of the bow, the eye-pleasing overhang of the stern, to the remarkable contour of the keel, there is nothing ordinary about the design of the S boat. The S -Class was the first Marconi rig Herreshoff designed and is the oldest one design still racing in the original boats. 2019 was our Centennial celebration with events in Larchmont, NY, Newport and Bristol, RI.
