Title: herreshoff 18'
Post by: grady on July 24, 2009, 03:52:59 AM

Grady:  I'm not familiar with a pilot boat.  You say it looks like a tug ... it is a power boat?  Was it built by the Herreshoff Maufacturing Company or some other builder?  Does it have a hull number?  Do you have a photo?

I'd bet Halsey's "Herreshoff America" hull. N&W built at least 4 different boats with that hull - The "America" Catboat, the "Eagle" sloop, the cat ketch "Scout", and a small tug/pilot boat (name unknown). The Scout and the Tug are pretty rare as far as I know (in all the years I've only seen 1 tug and two scouts)....

Yes, the Herreshoff America, Eagle, Scout and Pilot all use the same hulls!  The non-sailing hulls do not have centerboards of course.

HMM uses a Pilot as its launch.

We get more calls regarding the America than any other of our older (post HMCo) designs.

Also the mast on this one is aluminum do you know if this original or not, i believe the year is mid 70s.

Hi Grady - Cant say for sure but since the HA catboat had an Alum rig, id say the alum spar on this one was probably original.

Interesting note - I read many years ago (CBA Forum maybe) that Halsey used one of his grandfathers hulls - an early HMCo. racing cat - as the model. Adam L. - would that be true? and if so which hull #?

I always had a soft spot for Cape Cod Cats (at one time an obsession  :o) . I've been told that once the engine well was pluged these hulls compared very well with the Marshall 18...

The Scout...

One of the CBA members put this up on the web - so there are at least 6 production boats built from that hull:
the "America", "Eagle", "Scout", "Pilot", "Yacht Club Launch", and "Bay Fisherman"....Plus they offered "Custom" configurations.

Pilot Model - 1974

Was the Westerbeke diesel engine a 25 hp ?   If so is 8 to 9 knots average speed @ 1800 rpms ?

There is no trick - you can never really make a profit ,if you take into account " Time & Materials " in the boat buisness!

To me it is " Therapy " !  I usually keep 50 % of my Restorations for about a year , then put them up for sale . The last two daysailors that I restored were a PEEP Hen 14 and a BAY Hen 21 by Nimble , I had a waiting list of " Hensnest " customers for both boats and sold them after I played with them for about a year .
Also Restored Three -Boston Whalers 13 footer's , Aquasport 20 and a Mako 19 CC ( all power boats ) ! And had a market for all of them ( very easy to sell ) .

So, Adam  - is there a following on these Herreshoff 18 footers i.e. Harbor Pilot ?

 Answer to above question is YES !  Standard is 15 hp and upgrade is 25 hp !

Question ? - The rule-of-thumb which states that, around hull speed, an increase of one knot requires twice the horsepower suggests that decreasing speed from seven to six knots would give a fuel use of about 1/2 gph. ( Average 1 gph )

Post by: Adam on September 30, 2009, 02:34:46 AM
Well they are very popular in the "America" version as a Cape Cod Cat. The Pilot - as far as I know - was quite rare so a "following" may be a stretch. Like most classic hulls there are places - like New England in general where these types of boats would probably sell better then others. If it were me - yeah I'd love a neat classic like this - put a small 12-16hp diesel in her, maybe some trap strakes, a pot haul, and a nice hemp push on the bow and it would be a head turner.

About 10 years ago I re-did one of the old 17'  "Finest Kind" CC Novi hulls (Later the Stagepoint 17, and recently the Seaway Stagepoint 17). I got more comments from passer by's then any other boat I've ever owned. I fished her hard for 5 years and sold her.

I'm looking for a Seaway 24 Express model to purchase !  And i went to Nova Scotia last year and took many Pic's of Novi Hull's , I hope to Restore one in the near furture . They remind me of the Herreshoff 18 Hull in some ways , they both belly out and Bow & Stern up a little .

Joe:
1. CBA = Catboat Association (http://www.catboats.org/).
2. Check out their "Cats for sale" section for lots of Herreshoff America versions.
3. The Seaway 24 is nice hull. I just sold (last year) an Albemarle 24 I re-did - not a novi but a nice hull none the less.

Post by: Adam on October 04, 2009, 02:04:46 AM
They were not Herreshoff built - Halsey Herreshoff designed them for the builder(s) in the 1970's. Several builders made them actually but the two main builders were Squadron, and N&W. Horizon I believe was the last (and still owns the molds I think?). If I remember correctly Horizon changed it quite a bit for their "Horizon Cat".

To complicate things, it is somewhat unsubstantiated that Halsey used one of his Grandfathers racing catboat models for the design (probable early cat 1870’s-1890’s). How much he changed the original hull design is unknown. I am highly curious though as too which hull # it was...One of the things to ask next time I’m at the museum.

CORRECTION - TSPHP 06308 74 = Hull # 63 , 08 = August , 74 = Year !

If your interested in "the great loop" read the classic "A Year in a Yawl". This is the true story of the first time anyone did it - late 1890's. Whats facinating is it was four young boys who built a Yawl by themselves - and take off - Tom Sawyer-esk. The first edition is 1904 I believe, but re-prints can be found cheap.

Of course the best, IMO, written "Catboat Cruising" story is Plummers, "The Boy, Me, and the Cat". The CBA just put it back in print a few years back....

I to have an 18' Harbor Pilot. I picked her up two years ago. It has a new 20HP yanmar 2 cylinder. The hull was brush painted blue. I removed the blue and she is waiting to get shot. I run her two summer ago; but put on the hard for the retro; just got sidetracked with other projects.

My hull number is TSPHP0090374. So I guess that means hull #9.

I was in the model room this weekend and looked up the 'America' model.  It was a new model in 1970, the text on the back reads:

Herreshoff America July 19, 1970
18 ft Cat Boat
for Nowak & Williams Model by A. S. deW H.
Scale 3/4" = 1'

Very nice model.

The hull will need to be painted as the gelcoat is shot (faded) My rudder was all cracked up. The repair was easy though. That consisted of grinding out the cracks, letting the thing dry out ( one year) filling the cracks and a layer of fiberglass cloth, followed by Interlux barrier coats (6) and sanding smooth.

This boat was owned by a Governor of CT. Then someone in NY associated with the Botanical Gardens in NY I got it off a guy in MD. At one point the boat may have been registered in NJ. The guy in MD had the 20HP Yanmar installed. I get a lot of looks from the local yacht clubs on the north end of the Barnegat Bay. I was going to sell her; but have decided to do a resto. Mine looks in better shape then the one listed for 14K.

Then Waxed the hull back to a lustre color , but the Red Gel Coat was just to damage / faded from the Sun & Salt water ! So, now I'm Re-sanding the hull and prepairing it for sparyed on Gelcoat a few layers at a time , until i put on 2 gallon of Red gelcoat then start sanding & waxing again ! Cardinal Joe

Problem > my spray gun maybe just fine for spraying AWLGRIP paint , but I need to thin out the Gel Coat to be able to paint it on the Pilot Hull . With spraying thin layers at a time and then sanding between Gel Coat layers, I’m just sanding off the Gel Coat itself! So, The Herreshoff Harbor Pilot is going to Wayne at “Jersey Cape Yachts “.
Wayne has a $ 1500.00 dollar Gel Coat Spray Gun that will dump Two gallons of Red Gel Coat on to the hull in no time, then add a layer of Poly- Clear Coat over the Gel Coat as a final touch !.

Hey Joe

Good idea letting someone else do the gelcoat work. I've done a couple of hulls and it is difficult work. You've got to build up layers with laminating gelcoat and then use a finish gelcoat or pva mold release to block air and allow a full hard cure. Then it's wetsand and power compound and polish. I've mixed Dura-tek clear coat with the last two layers to smooth out and add gloss to the finish so it sounds like the yard is going to do the job right and it'll be worth every dollar-especially since it's red.

That said, and you have an original finish that is easy to maintain, lasts a long time and does not require full side repaint like awlgrip and other surface paints.

I've seen your posts on another site and your doing a great job. I'm converting a 1970 America cat to picnic launch. The boat was beat and the hull had great lines. I'm re-gelcoating as well. I'll post some pics of my work in progress so you can see what I'm doing. I saw a launch online for sale that gave me the idea a couple of years ago. I think I have pics of that too. I'll post them here and on the other site.

 CBA member posted... I have the opportunity to buy an old wooden boat that was designed
: by Herreshoff. The design is called the Eagle. I have never
: heard of it although I have been told it is similar to a
: Friendship Sloop. Any info would be appreciated, especially some
: sites where I could find some plans or pictures. I have e-mailed
: the research dept. at Mystic but have not heard back as of this
: writing. Anyone any ideas? Thanks (Eric Nelson)

I've been told that the Eagle is a rather traditional looking CATBOAT. Is this what you have? Cape Cod Shipbilding in Wareham, Massachusetts, purchased the rights to all of Herreshoff's designs several years back. They chose to produce some designs, and gave all the info on the larger boats to MIT.


Chapter Two-just found a line drawing in, "Boatwatch," a large collection of line drawings issued in 1979. I think that this is still updated and published from the author, Max Wade Averitt, here in San Jose. The original publisher was Charles Scribner & Sons.

INFO--22 ft - Herreshoff Eagle Sloop 22' 0" / 8' 0" /1'10" board up, 4'0" board down: FBG: displacement 2,700 lbs, ballast 700: sail area 320 sg ft, mast height 32' 6": sleep 2: Halsey C. Herreshoff design : built by Squadron Yachts Inc., Bristol, RI, (in production in 1979.) NOTICE THIS IS FIBREGLASS, so not your builder perhaps. If you can find anyone from Squadron Yachts, they may be able to tell you the history.

 Steve Fisher

Cape Cod Shipbilding in Wareham, Massachusetts, purchased the rights to all of Herreshoff's designs several years back. They chose to produce some designs, and gave all the info on the larger boats to MIT.
   Is there any truth in the above statement ?

Title: Re: herreshoff 18'
Post by: Steve on February 01, 2010, 03:18:43 AM
My understanding is this:  CCSB only has the rights to the 12-1/2, the "S", and the "Fisher's Island Class", according to the legal documents.  An open question is what is meant by the "Fisher's Island Class".  MIT holds the plans for the other designs, and the ability to grant or deny access to them, but not the rights to the actual designs themselves.
Title: Re: herreshoff 18'
Post by: Adam on February 01, 2010, 03:49:24 AM
Yes and no.... Don’t confuse your Pilot, Herreshoff America, Scout, and Eagle, etc. (all designed by Halsey Herreshoff), with those designs of the Herreshoff Manufacturing Company (HMCo.) which is a different company/designer - and went out of business in 1946. HMCo. designs are primarily by Halsey's Grandfather - Nat Herreshoff, (and Some by Halsey's Father Sidney). No fiberglass sailboat was ever built by HMCo.

When the HMCo. went out of business in 1946 the rights to build some of the smaller vessels were sold to Cape Cod Shipbuilding (CCSB). These included the "S-Class", and most famously the 12 1/2 (among others). You will note in many of our posts we mention "Cape Cod Built" when referring to the 12 1/2 - this is because for several years after HMCo. closed, Cape Cod Shipbuilding produced them out of wood. Since they are not ORIGINAL HMCo. built boats we make note of them as such but don't add them to the registry. (although I'm trying to convince Steve to document them so we don't get them confused with the originals!)

Now to confuse you more, after the late 1940's Cape Cod Shipbuilding started building the 12 1/2 out of FIBERGLASS - and stopped all wood production. This essentially forfeited their exclusive right to the design (Simply put - because of the change of materials, it is not the same boat - according to the MA courts!). Although if you do build one out of wood you’ll need their permission - they still own the rights to the wood builds!

CCSB also had Sidney (after HMCo. closed) modify the Marlin, the Bulls-eye (a type of modified 12 1/2), as well as design a number of other boats (Halsey did some as well). These are ALL fiberglass, and while designed by members of the Herreshoff family, they are of course not original HMCo. built.

This link explains the legal issues :

This Spring ......  I'm going to use the " Farrow System " on the bottom of the hull to remove years of old paint ..... then Barrier Coat the bottom & paint the bottom ....

1) - Inter Protect 200E ( Barrier Coat )- is Gray color

InterProtect® 2000E is a unique two-part epoxy designed to reduce the potential of water absorption by fiberglass hulls.

2) - BottomKote Classic is Black color !

Fiberglass Bottomkote® with Irgarol®

is a hard modified-epoxy antifouling paint that provides excellent season long protection

3) - Micron Extra is Blue color! .... combines the slime blocking power of Biolux™ with controlled solubility copolymer antifouling paint technology to provide long-lasting, full-spectrum defense against fouling organisms. The antifouling ingredients are chemically bonded into Micron Extra’s copolymer matrix, which is engineered to gradually wear away as the boat moves through the water, much like a bar of soap.

Post by: Cardinal Joe on February 06, 2010, 09:25:22 PM
Summary of the above posting ;

 After taking all the paint off the bottom ( Farrow Blasting System ) .... next is Inter Protect 200E  barrier coat. Then a single layer of BottomKote Classic  hard epoxy in a different color (Black) will be put on. This will be on the bottom forever. At that point several coats of  Micron Extra (Blue) will be put on. This way when the ablative paint wears thin/away you can tell by seeing the Black color come thru. Taking off 10 or so years of bottom paint I will picked up about a half knot at cruise at the same RPM. A smooth bottom will save money in the long run.  Without a different color under it may not be able to tell. Another bonus of starting with a bare bottom.

I was talking to the Westerbeke Factory Rep. at the Atlantic City boat show on Friday. I asked if he knew of any Herreshoff Harbor Pilots or Harbor Launch’s …. He stated that just last week he was on a Herreshoff Harbor Pilot in Round Pond , Maine and that ….. Boston Yacht Club - Located in Marblehead, MA - founded 1866 had /have? Two Boats - Herreshoff Harbor Yacht Launch’s, shuttles boaters to and from the mooring ball’s.                                                         

On another note, I ask the Westerbeke Rep. about my 1974 Westerbeke Diesel engine in my Pilot …. He stated that there were two Westerbeke motors back in the early 70‘s …. One was produce in the USA – 25 hp and the other was a British Taxi Cab Engine – 30 hp that was bullet proof …. I ‘m going to send him a picture of my Westerbeke motor to see if it is a British model . If it is stamped W30 then it is a British engine ….which is really a 30 hp motor …..

Wow, standard engine HP was 15 hp, Optional is 25 hp to 30 hp!  But, 46 HP is to the Moon!   What is your average cruising speed?

Joe, about 6.5 knots, the rudder is below the water line beneath the swim platform. The boat is an absolute tank, if you get stuck in sand it just plows off. Jack

Hey Joe

Good idea letting someone else do the gelcoat work. I've done a couple of hulls and it is difficult work. You've got to build up layers with laminating gelcoat and then use a finish gelcoat or pva mold release to block air and allow a full hard cure. Then it's wetsand and power compound and polish. I've mixed Dura-tek clear coat with the last two layers to smooth out and add gloss to the finish so it sounds like the yard is going to do the job right and it'll be worth every dollar-especially since it's red.

That said, and you have an original finish that is easy to maintain, lasts a long time and does not require full side repaint like awlgrip and other surface paints.

 Custom GelCoat Paint Job means Somewhat Expensive = 33.30 hours of labor X $ 130.00 per/hr
 and $ 161.28 in Parts & Materials ......

But , I have to say it is a First Class Job and I'm very happy with the work that was done on my Herreshoff Harbor Pilot...

Most Pilot have Replaced there original engine with a YANMAR 30 HP Diesel motor....
But there are other motor options ; the Universal B- Diesel Series Continuous Quality Power ( M- 25XPB Diesel Engine)= 25 hp for $9955.00 installed by me at Cardinal Yacht Sales Marina ......

Universal B- Series  - is the maker of the world famous " Atomic-4 " and pioneers in premium marine diesel propulsion ...

if your looking to replace that aging Atomic 4 , the Universal B- Series is still the boaters choice for atomic-4 replacements .... The M-35B ( $ 11,106.00), M3-20B ($10,782.00 ) and M-25XPB ( $ 11,402.00 )

Also , another engine that will fix the Herreshoff Harbor Pilot is a NANNI Diesel - 21.3 kw ( 29 hp ) model N3.30  - Price is $9000.00 not installed ......

 Tillotson OM-31 Carb for Chrysler 80HP Inboard

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Hi,

It seems I have a one of a kind boat and engine. The boat is a Herreshoff Harbor Pilot 18', manufactured in 1974, and it is powered by a Chrysler 80HP inboard direct shaft. This engine was originally used on SIMCA's.

I would like a carb rebuild kit for the carbs (there are 2 of them), the model number is OM-31A and OM-32A, made by Tillotson in Toledo, Ohio.

Could you help me on finding parts/kits for those carbs?

Thanks,

Andre.

New guy here.

I'm looking for one of those Herreshoff Harbor Pilot design boats.

It's 18 ft long, has an inboard, a small pilot house forward and a

huge catboard style outboard rudder.

They were made by Nauset Marine and Squadron Yachts.


I have a 1957 Lone Star Cruise Master to trade or as a down

payment.

contact Mark E at markeoffice@yahoo.com

Thanks   Jack – do you know from your identification # on the hull … what # your pilot is ?

I do not. I'll trust you with the boat number of my registration 1985 Nauset @@@HP115@585  Engine designation from same source is 1984 BMW 1951 35 inboard diesel

There were two of those engine's used, mine was the bigger 3 cylinder D-50. I have the shop manual too. Call Nauset with those numbers and I'm sure they can tell you.


1985 model. 45hp That is the only number I have. I'll call Nauset on Monday, unless you already have.


To: David Deschamps
Cc: aaron@nausetmarine.com ...Can you tell me what the hull number is on my 1985 Pilot Harbor is? My registration # is @@@HP115@585.
Jack -   That is your legal hull # @@@ is our designation code ,hp stands for harbour pilot, 115 is the production number ,but they start at 101 so you are number 4 the @ is the month(xxx) and the 585 is an 1985 model year built in 1985, if it was 485 it would have been built in 84 I hope this explains things if not give me another shout

Located another Herreshoff Harbor Pilot ... Palm Coast FL.   Hull # 49 ....

cardinal joe, my pilot boat is a `74   it had a volvo 4cyl gas engine (25hp) in it that was froze up completely.  I installed a 3 cyl small diesel i think it is a 18 h.p. it has a white hull with red trim.  The boat is in Palm Coast FL.  the boat was bought over from New Port Beach, Calif. about 10 years ago. It appeared to have two or three owners before this sale to my friend in FL.   I now have 160 hours on the new engine. it needs alot of teak work which I don`t get to as i enjoy using it so much.  my computer skills are limited and i will have one of the grandkids help me post a pic next time they are over.  again thanks for your reply   best al

Post by: Cardinal Joe on February 25, 2010, 04:33:42 PM
Adam , Adam L and Steve – I’m confused about the following data :
 
 Nowalk & Williams Company   and  SQUADRON YACHTS,INC – were builders of these six models Hull’s – in the early 70’s thru early 80’s  both from Bristol, Rhode Island  !  So, in 1985  Nauset Marine Inc – who are boat builders from Cape Cod , Massachusetts. – started producing a Herreshoff Harbor Pilot – starting the Hull # at 101  and we know that Sky King (Hyannis MA at Nauset Marine ) was Hull # 115 ….  So, where did Nauset Marine – obtain the Herreshoff Harbor Pilot Mold/Hull to build these Pilot’s and did they Sell the Mould/Hull to "Horizon Cat".???

DATA Information so far obtained :

1)   - Herreshoff America July 19, 1970 – 18 ft Cat boat Hull for Nowak & Williams Model by A. S. deW H.
2)   - Nowak & Williams – started building the Pilot in 1974 – because the Herreshoff Harbor Pilot that is for sale on Yacht World – stated it is Hull # 2 (18' Herreshoff Harbor Pilot –year; 1974 , current price ; US $ 14,900 , Located In E. Dennis, MA
3)   - My Pilot title states - " SQU " which = SQUADRON YACHTS,INC – my Hull # TSPHP 06308 74 = Hull # 63 , 08 = August , 74 = Year !
4)   - Little Toot – My hull number is TSPHP0090374. So I guess that means hull #9.
5)   - Adam – stated ; two main builders were Squadron, and N&W. Horizon I believe was the last (and still owns the molds I think?). If I remember correctly Horizon changed it quite a bit for their "Horizon Cat".
6)   – Jack – do you know from your identification # on the hull … what # your pilot is ?

Don't know for sure but my guess is When Squadron went under Nauset purchased the mould. Nauset builds/built a whole bunch of power boats of similar Novi/Downeast hulls (I always was partial to their 27). As far as I know they never built a sailing version (IE Scout, America, Eagle etc.). I heard the America mould was in Florida for years before Compac (Horizon Cat) got it - but I don't think anyone actually built any....

Joe - Nauset   purchased the Harbor Pilot, America, Eagle and Scout molds from Squadron Yachts  in the early 80's. Nauset built a handful of Pilots,America's and Downeasters(Eagles), the Scout never went into production. The America molds were later sold and the Scout, Downeaster and pilot molds were later scraped do to thier poor condition.Sky Kings' hull number started at 111, not 101 as I stated, My mistake, sorry never to happen again! Any other questions give me a shout I'll do my best to answer them.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Adam , Adam L and Steve – I’m confused about the following data :
 
 Nowalk & Williams Company   and  SQUADRON YACHTS,INC – were builders of these six models Hull’s – in the early 70’s thru early 80’s  both from Bristol, Rhode Island  !  So, in 1985  Nauset Marine Inc – who are boat builders from Cape Cod , Massachusetts. – started producing a Herreshoff Harbor Pilot – starting the Hull # at 101  and we know that Sky King (Hyannis MA at Nauset Marine ) was Hull # 115 ….  So, where did Nauset Marine – obtain the Herreshoff Harbor Pilot Mold/Hull to build these Pilot’s and did they Sell the Mold/Hull to "Horizon Cat".

DATA Information so far obtained :

1)   - Herreshoff America July 19, 1970 – 18 ft Cat boat Hull for Nowak & Williams Model by A. S. deW H.
2)   - Nowak & Williams – started building the Pilot in 1974 – because the Herreshoff Harbor Pilot that is for sale on Yacht World – stated it is Hull # 2 (18' Herreshoff Harbor Pilot –year; 1974 , current price ; US $ 14,900 , Located In E. Dennis, MA
3)   - My Pilot title states - " SQU " which = SQUADRON YACHTS,INC – my Hull # TSPHP 06308 74 = Hull # 63 , 08 = August , 74 = Year !
4)   - Little Toot – My hull number is TSPHP0090374. So I guess that means hull #9.
5)   - Adam – stated ; two main builders were Squadron, and N&W. Horizon I believe was the last (and still owns the molds I think?). If I remember correctly Horizon changed it quite a bit for their "Horizon Cat".
6)   – Jack – do you know from your identification # on the hull … what # your pilot is ?

I do not. I'll trust you with the boat number of my registration 1985 Nauset @@@HP115@585  Engine designation from same source is 1984 BMW 1951 35 inboard diesel
7)   - Dave Deschamps – from Nauset Marine –has stated the following : Jack  (owner of Sky King)…. That is your legal hull # @@@ is our designation code ,hp stands for harbour pilot, 115 is the production number ,but they start at 101 so you are number 4 the @ is the month(@@@) and the 585 is an 1985 model year built in 1985, if it was 485 it would have been built in 84 I hope this explains .., things if not give me another shout Dave …

   – I think that Dave Deschamps – may have miss printed above the # 4 and it should be really # 14 … i.e. 101 -115 = 14 ?  Or did he mean that the Sky King was built on (@@@) month , 4 th day of 1985 ?

Appreciated – me either, but the first three letters of the Hull # will tell if it was built by Nauset Marine …..

I can’t show these #‘s because Jack Maher owner of Sky King has an trusted them to me , so I will not post them …… but the first letter is an “ A “  rather than an “ T “ ……  Cardinal Joe  (http://Cardinal Joe)

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

If you notice the deck floor had been cut out around the rear of the Transmission ….. The Rear Main Seal had been replaced on the transmission also I notice that any replacement parts on the motor were red in color or unpainted …. Well it appears that the fresh water, oil & fuel pumps along with the alternator, starter solenoid , one pulley , fuel filter canister plus lines, and belts had all been replaced at one time or another …...

Also it appears that I had a very small fuel leak from one of the fuel lines ...... from the photo's above it also shows transmission fluid in the bilge , but it was left over from the leaky rear main seal – the new seal looks very resend ,maybe less than a year old ?

Nowalk & Williams Company ( square plate ) and SQUADRON YACHTS,INC ( round plate)– were builders of these six models Hull’s – in the early 70’s thru early 80’s both from Bristol, Rhode Island ! My Pilot has both Bronze plates ? Wonder if they both had a joint venture in building the Herreshoff Harbor Pilot ?

What is The Farrow System®?

The Farrow System® is a revolutionary, cost effective, and environmentally safe surface cleaning and preparation method that quickly removes coatings, oxidation, dirt, and graffiti from most surfaces without damaging them.

Why do you say it will do the impossible?

The Farrow System® will clean surfaces that are impossible to clean using any other method, and at speeds that will leave you amazed! It will remove the toughest coatings, yet is easily adjusted to clean the most fragile surfaces without damage. From removing corrosion on a battleship to the printed label on an aluminum soda can, The Farrow System® does it all!

How long has The Farrow System® been in use?

The Farrow System® was introduced in 1998 to the marine industry in order to efficiently and safely remove anti-foul coatings from the hulls of boats. The Farrow System's® controlled cleaning technique left the fiberglass, wood and steel surfaces of the underlying boat hulls free from damage and amazingly clean. The range of applications quickly expanded for the Farrow System® and today it is used around the world as an environmentally friendly cleaning solution both inside and outdoors.

Is The Farrow System® safe? How about its environmental impact?

The Farrow System® is environmentally friendly and doesn't use any chemicals or chemical byproducts. Our Farrow Green Clean® cleaning media is non-toxic which means that after use, it can be disposed of easily and properly. Dust levels are suppressed within the vaporized elements of Farrow Green Clean® , therefore allowing this extremely low-pressure cleaning method to be used safely outdoors, within populated urban areas and even in enclosed environments.

How quickly does The Farrow System® clean?

After a short set up time of about 15 minutes, precise and evenly textured finishes on virtually all surfaces are easily achieved in a fraction of time. Initial cleaning procedures are fast, and surface cleaning speeds are at least twice as fast as outdated abrasive blasting methods.

How easy is The Farrow System® to use?

Operating The Farrow System® is as easy as washing your car. No special skills are required to begin cleaning. After a short learning period, an operator can achieve a wide range of cleaning finishes by making minor adjustments to the air pressure, water distribution and Farrow Green Clean® media sizes. Operators have a full 180 degree view of the surfaces being cleaned through the vapor-like cleaning stream.

How costly is The Farrow System® to use?

Because cleaning speeds are so quick, media usage is typically less than half that of conventional abrasive blasting. Project start to finish times are typically cut in half, saving labor costs and keeping you on schedule. With the controlled accuracy and low pressures used by The Farrow System®, little or no tenting or containment is required to protect adjacent buildings, equipment, or the general public. The all natural Farrow Green Clean® media is easy to sweep up and dispose of when the job is done.

Is The Farrow System® a unique process?

Scientific tests have shown that the heat incorporated in The Farrow System® is key to the speed and precision of the cleaning process. No one else uses heat to clean like The Farrow System®, and no one else uses the proprietary Farrow Green Clean®. And no one else can clean what The Farrow System® can clean. The revolutionary Farrow System® cleaning process is patented throughout the world.

Do you support your customers after the sale?

While cleaning some jobs may be similar, there is no such thing as a 'standard' or 'typical' job, the size and nature of any project is so wide-ranging. The Farrow System® is supported by cleaning specialists, engineers, service technicians, and overnight shipping of OEM replacement parts. Farrow Green Clean® media is only a phone call away at 1-888-FARROW-8. We keep your machine operating and your jobs on schedule. The Farrow System® machines are built in the USA to the highest quality standards with one goal in mind: to insure top customer productivity and satisfaction!

The Farrow System® combines the fundamental elements of nature - water, heat, minerals, and air - and forges them into a powerful cleaning system. Patented worldwide, The Farrow System® can clean surfaces impossible to clean with other systems! "A natural combination"

The Farrow System® adds heat to a low pressure mixture of water and Farrow Green Clean®, a chemical-free, naturally occurring mineral. Adding heat adds energy, creating free flow in the system and allowing air pressures can be low and still clean efficiently. This heat also causes the Farrow Green Clean® crystals to align before leaving the turbo nozzle. This creates a controlled, highly efficient cleaning stream that resembles a stream of darts.

This safe, low pressure vapor-like stream is directed against the surface to be cleaned. Upon contact with the surface, each Farrow Green Clean® particle bursts into multiple cleaning "missiles" that lift the coating from the surface. Each particle packs many punches, reducing cleaning time and media consumption significantly. The process is dust-free and leaves only a moist residue which is easily swept up and removed. "Cleaning method comparison"

Farrow Green Clean® is available in several grit sizes specially developed for a range of cleaning applications. It can take off just one layer at a time and it can also create controlled profiles specific to your application.

For my 2 cents' worth, I would go either way:  unadulterated as the designer(s) intended - or - an opening port would allow both through-cabin visibility (for the height challenged) & ventilation of the cabin.  In any event, any modifications MUST look professionally done & be in keeping with the character of the boat.  For what it's worth.

Post by: Adam on March 15, 2010, 05:29:20 PM
My .02 is probably not worth much but I have always felt that boats, cars, or widgets should be kept as "stock" as possible. There is usually good reason a designer designed it that way. If I must change something structural (IE I was really going to use the craft for some specific purpose and needed to add equipment) I would try my best to be able to return to original shape as easy as possible with as little structural change as possible.....

What is felt as the best trailer for the safe transport of a Harbor Pilot?  I'm anticipating one over the road retrieval (300 miles), then occasional launching(s), mostly for off season storage.
Bunks appear to offer the better hull support, while rollers appear to make the "on" and "off" easier.  Mostly, I want to be sure not to damage the hull in transport.  I appreciate your recommendations.
Title: Re: herreshoff 18'
Post by: Adam on March 15, 2010, 07:35:43 PM
Bunks are far easier - easier on/off as well. Years of trailereing a similar Novi hull and I would never do anything but a float on bunk. Just MO....
Title: Re: herreshoff 18'
Post by: RBStuart on March 17, 2010, 03:52:02 PM
Adam, I appreciate your response - can you be more specific?  I've spoken with a trailer dealer who favors rollers over bunks, but I've seen the stress that rollers can place on a hull.  That's something I want to avoid completely.  With respect to bunks, what would you suggest:  1 set, two sets, with or without rollers to support the keel?  Also, for the HHP, what weight limit?  Do you believe a single axle accommodating enough ?  Any insight would be most welcome.  Thanks in advance.
Title: Re: herreshoff 18'
Post by: Adam on March 17, 2010, 06:36:28 PM
IMO - Rollers freeze. They need far more maintinence. They don't roll that well to begin with. Bunks support far more - and evenly. With a boat 18' which is fairly light they dont need anything more then bunks - single axle. In fact the hard part is keeping a boat on the bunks - the things are slippery (usually have a plastic covering on the boards which allows the boat to "slide" around).

Joe:  Without a mock up picture I really can't comment.  But, it's your boat and I trust you will make the right judgment.   

As an aside, you're work on this 18 has been inspiring.  Given your effort to restore this fine craft and others willingness to take on similar projects there is certainly a propensity for the design and perhaps new examples of these boats should again be manufactured.  Would you ever considering building new 18's from scratch?  Best,  Adam L.

Joe -
     What are my chances of finding (or, do you know of) a Herreshoff Harbor Pilot that is in such bad shape that it's been abandoned or its owner is willing to sell its parts?  I may be in need of a replacement bronze rudder skeg - the keel fitting that supports the rudder.  Or, possibly, one that has been temporarily removed that could be used as a pattern for a mold to be cast in bronze.  Any thoughts would be appreciated.

Post by: Cardinal Joe on March 27, 2010, 09:45:28 PM
Joe - The original skeg was deemed too worn to be serviceable, so it was removed, pressure treated lumber was sandwiched together, bolted to the keel, and a replacement skeg (not the original) was bolted to that.

The Bottom Rudder Pintle should be through the keel hole an be free Willie ..... That is Just Horrible looking , it is not the orginial bronze keel that came with the Herreshoff Harbor pilot !

Joe, you've had your skeg all cleaned up - does it appear that the original skeg is through bolted to the keel, or is it screwed into the keel?  I haven't been able to tell either from various pictures I've seen, or an inspection of the Pilot in Brick.

I am a Harbor Pilot owner too.  Mine is a factory custom I call a "Commodore" model..bigger cabin with seat steering and sink. Only one I have ever seen. I will take some photos to show you.

Always nice to meet another lover of the Harbor Pilot.

Post by: kirkout on April 02, 2010, 12:39:17 AM
I am on lake Chautauqua in western NY. My pilot came from north shore of Long Island where it was once used by a yacht club. Last owner trailered it to Mobile, Alabama where he had it in water for a season ...I found it listed on ebay and could not take my eyes off it. Has dual helms. one inside and one outside. Cabin comes all way back to behind dog house engine cover that acts as settee. Very nice teak detail in and out, but needs some TLC. Diesel engine was pulled out at some time and replaced with a mercruser 120 with hurth reduction tranmission so they had to make engine compartment bigger. Looks and pulls like a little tug. Hydrolic steering added at some time too. Wish I had more time to work on it than I do. I will go down to my barn and pull it out to take some photos. It was mentioned in a cat forum on Pilots a few years back by previous owner and some thought it was a remodel job. However if you look closely it looks like detail work was done in Bristol RI. Builders plate and all. I have my eyes on  little Yanmar 18hp that I can get to put back in it. The Merc is too much power.

I also have another project boat. A Bill Menger 23' cat boat Launch. One of only 3, custom made for a Yacht Club on Hudson. Has a 28hp Yanmar Diesel in it.

Kirk -" Modifications" in all forms are the bane of my Harbor Pilot Quest existence.  I'm beginning to doubt I'll be able to locate the ideal candidate for restoration that my limited budget will allow.  However, I'll continue to look.  From what I've seen so far, most previous owners have installed rod holders, extra cleats, over-powered engines,additional windows, and have modified the stock boat beyond what is reversible or acceptable to me.  I fully understand wanting to personalize a boat for oneself, and each has his own idea as to what's acceptable, but, for me, the closer to "stock", the better I like it.  These, of course, are my own opinions.

Well , i when home for a few days and the boys - 1) Barrier coated 2) used a hard modified-epoxy antifouling paint that provides excellent season long protection 3) Micron Extra .... combines the slime blocking power of Biolux™ with controlled solubility copolymer antifouling paint technology to provide long-lasting, full-spectrum defense against fouling organisms. The antifouling ingredients are chemically bonded into Micron Extra’s copolymer matrix, which is engineered to gradually wear away as the boat moves through the water, much like a bar of soap.

Subject: steering parts

 

Hi Joe

I got my Herrshoff Scout back from the painter and immediately took it to the trailer co. on their loaner trailer  3 weeks ago. It took them that long to get a trailer made for it. I go to pick it up last Sat. and they had scratched the hull in several places and now it has to go back to the painter again. Their expense but I can see an arguement brewing already between them and the painter. My luck.

 

Got a question for you.

The boat has a make shift tiller added to the top of the rudder head to get it over the transom an into the cockpit it works and its fine. But I would like to go back to as close as possible to original (wheel steering) equipt on this boat as I can. I found an old cable a red plastic cable with an inscription "MORSE E 304415-120IN 4427" one end is rusted off. I have the old wheel but nothing of the of the bulkhead mechanism to connect it to exists. Just an empty hole. The transom still has a small slot where some sort of short tiller must have been connected to the cable.

Any ideas on what I can do to find the parts to bring this back to close to original.

 

Thanks

Scott Silvia

Adam,
Any chance of getting a framable copy of this print?
Thanks,

Yes, the Herreshoff America, Eagle, Scout and Pilot all use the same hulls!  The non-sailing hulls do not have centerboards of course.

HMM uses a Pilot as its launch.

We get more calls regarding the America than any other of our older (post HMCo) designs.

Steve – Welcome aboard what is your home port for your Herreshoff Harbor Pilot?  Can you send me some photos so I can post them up on the Herreshoff Registry forum under Herreshoff 18 ……?   The answer to your question is there are two bronze / bass plates one is at the Helm and the other is at the around back rest area in the stern, below the Cat seating area ….  What is your Hull #  ?

Joe,
I have a 1984 Squadron Yacht Harbor Pilot that is slowly being fixed up. I have cleaned and climbed all around the boat and have never found a brass plate. Where is it located? Was it an option on some models? The boat has traveled from Cape Cod to Texas to Alabama over the years maybe it was removed.
Any Ideas?
Thanks,
Steve

Joe,

Here are a few pictures....  We have done quite a bit of maintenance on her and just started sanding and Cetoling all the teak.  In addition, building up the instrument panel, to both provide a little higher platform and clean the lines with just a simple tachometer and oil temp gauge.  We have cut out and added two 12x13 hatches to the starboard and port sides of the rear seats (the space has been wasted since launch in 74). I work in the music business so we upgraded the electrical - she now has a VSR and three battery bank (two in bow hatched compartment and starting battering in pilot house).  Must say there is now no problem listening to music underway.

We are hoping to add a water bladder and pump for fresh water line + a remote controlled high intensity search light on the mast.  Winter projects include a stern thruster, add additional deck support, through hull lights and repaint the bilge.

She has a Yanmar Diesel, and I was thinking of adding a stern blower + air line directly to the engine air intake manifold.  Don't think I will get a supercharger affect but it would allow us to completely enclose the engine box and really soundproof it - any thoughts? There would be a mild increase in efficiency because the air intake would be receiving slightly cooler air at modestly increased pressure - whatcha think?.

Dennis

Dennis – just looked at my Pilot – and a stern bow thruster unit maybe a problem with the installation …. because of the Rudder ?   I use a Continuous blower unit , but without the filter ….. just have the hose laying in the bilge engine area .  I have it on a separate fuse line & switch , but your idea sounds ok >>>>>

I’ll send you some more when the rain stops.  What size and make blower are you using, I heard that you need one rated for continuous duty?  I was going to tie it into the start line, so it turns on when you engage the key and simply put an in-line fuse instead of running it through the fuse box.  Do you use a filter on the blower intake to decrease salt crystal intake?

The Pilot looks GREAT!  I love the idea of a stern bow thruster & the third battery.... Music is a big Plus.... The two extra 12x13 hatches to the starboard and port sides of the rear seats , water bladder and a remote controlled high intensity search light on the mast makes perfect sense to me ....  You should add a 30 amp converter down to 110 line ,if you are going to do any traveling in the future .... I like the idea of under water lights -  go with the LED's ,they use very little battery power , what color through hull lights ?  .... I have the extra stern blower + air line directly to the engine air intake manifold on my pilot .... YES - there would be a mild increase in efficiency because the air intake would be receiving slightly cooler air at modestly increased pressure ! How is the Cetoling working out on the teak ?... Any Pic’s ? – Need more Photo’s ……..  keep up the good work ……….

Trailer Updates
Well decide to work on the Herreshoff Harbor Pilot Trailer.... Add New Combination Trailer Light Kit ( Stop,Turn & Tail Lamp )..... The old lights worked fine ,but were NOT " Submersible " Trailer lights .... The old guy that I purchase my Herreshoff Harbor Pilot from - his son owns a small marina in atlantic city area , and the Pilot was lifted on & off the trailer with a fork lift and launched .... The son also custom built this trailer for the Herreshoff harbor pilot ..... I Lubed all the rollers before placing the pilot back on the trailer ..... I also plan to replace all four sets of Axle Bearing & Hub assembly units and a New trailer Coupler (quick-lock ) 2 '' ball size .... Tire's are in excellent condition.....
This trailer will be ready to travel with zero issues ..... I maybe taken the Pilot to Southwest Harbor Maine in Sept. ( 14 hour ride from South Jersey ).

On 24 March 2010, the undersigned surveyor attended upon the subject motor vessel, while ashore in heated storage at Portland, Maine for the purpose of conducting a condition and value survey for Insurance Underwriting and financial evaluation purposes.

The vessel was found stored on a trailer, in a heated storage facility and in a somewhat decommissioned state.

Note: It must be understood that this type of survey is limited in scope to those elements of the vessel that directly or indirectly affect the safety of the vessel and its passengers, and its general market value.  It is not of sufficient depth to be considered as a Pre-Purchase Survey.

Note: The ▼ symbol is used, in the text of the survey, to indicate a condition that is covered under the RECOMMENDATIONS/ SUGGESTIONS/DEFICIENCIES section.  The   symbol is used to indicate a photo is available in the PHOTOGRAPHS section of the survey.

DESIGN/CONSTRUCTION/STRUCTURES:

General:    

The hull is of the rounded chine, full keel, displacement form with single screw and inboard spade rudder.

The vessel was purchased in August 2008, redesigned and rebuilt by Merrill and Thomas Hall over the past two years.  The Halls are experienced in boat repair, FRP composite construction and marine mechanical and electrical systems.

The original “house” and liner were removed and the vessel was rebuilt to the new design.  The hull and side shells were taken down to the gel coat, sounded and checked for moisture.  All was found to be in good order and the surfaces were painted.  A small area of the gunwale was found to have elevated moisture.  The area was opened up, dried-out and restored to original.   The bulkheads were constructed of ¾” Meranti (13 ply) plywood and the decks were finished with ½” (7 ply) Meranti marine plywood.  The cabin tops and wheelhouse areas were constructed of 3/8” and ¼” Okoume bendable marine plywood.  All plywood surfaces were treated with West System Epoxy, prior to installation.  Tabbing and covering for decks and bulkheads are of 14 oz stitch-matt while coverings on cabin top and wheelhouse are multiple layers of 8 oz cloth.  The work was well executed to good yacht standards and the vessel shows “as new” in many respects.

   Notes
Sideshells:   Have been “taken down” to the gel coat and painted – very good condition
Underwater body:   Have been “taken down” to the gel coat and painted – very good condition
Decks:   FRP over ½” “Meranti” marine plywood – very good condition
Cabin Area:   Neat and clean
Bulkheads:   New ¾” “Maranti” marine grade plywood – very good condition
Bilges:   Clean and dry
Hatches:   Two – New
Sea Valve:   New 2009 – Bronze
Obvious Repairs:   None observed
Damaged Areas:   None observed
Grab rails:    New – Very good – Vintage cast bronze mounts w/bronze tubing
Mooring Cleats/Chocks:   Original bronze – one SAMPSON post
Hull/Deck Joint:   FRP tabbing – good condition
Strength of Hull:   Acceptable

Certain areas of the exterior underwater body, exterior side shells, and exposed exterior portions of the deck structure were “sounded” by means of steel and plastic hammers, inspected visually and with a portable non-destructive electronic moisture meter. Major deficiencies in these areas could adversely affect the vessel’s structural integrity and/or its Fair Market Value.

The injector pump was rebuilt by John Pride, Inc., Diesel Engine Repair, in 2009.  The vessel was sea trialed in August 2009 and demonstrated normal operation.

The fuel tank is located below the portside gunwale and is adequately secured, grounded, and vented.  Fuel fill and supply hoses are in new condition (USCG type A).  The fuel tank reportedly was modified and cleaned in 2008 and prior to installation was pressure tested at 5psi for approximately 20 hours with no leakage.  The fuel -fill and vent hoses were replaced at that time.

The engine was not operated during this survey.  No opinion is expressed.

GENERAL OBSERVATIONS/COMMENTS:

“NoVela” is a custom designed vessel that bears no visible resemblance to the original Herreshoff Harbor Pilot, except for the hull.  This surveyor has followed the reconstruction of this vessel.  

VALUATION:

One Herreshoff 1974 Harbor Pilot is listed for sale on the internet with an asking price of $14,900.  In determining the market value of this “custom” vessel, three different builders were used as comparables (four 22’ Eastern, two 21’ Atlas Pompanos and one H and H 20’).  These vessels were built between 1989 and 2006 and three were diesel powered while four were gas powered.  The average asking price was $27,910 USD.  Assuming that they would sell for 88% of the asking price, the selling price would be $24,960

The ESTIMATED MARKET VALUE of the vessel is approximately, in the opinion of this office, $24,000 USD to $26,750 USD.  Market value is based upon the observed conditions of the vessel “as is-where is” and without completion of work or correction of deficiencies in the Recommendations/ Suggestions/ Deficiencies section of this survey.  Further consideration is given to the vessel’s overall condition in comparison to vessels of like size, age and service, and the current state of the marketplace.

MARKET VALUE is hereby defined as the most probable selling price in a competitive and open market under all conditions requisite to a fair sale, and where the buyer and the seller, is each acting prudently and knowledgeably, and with the assumption that the price is not affected by undue stimulus. Implicit in this definition is the consummation of a sale on a specified date and the passing of title from seller to buyer under conditions whereby:

1.   Buyers and sellers are under no duress.
2.   Both parties are well informed and acting in what they consider to be their own best interests.
3.   A reasonable time is allowed for exposure in the open market.
4.   Payment is made in cash or its equivalent.
5.   Financing, if any, is on terms generally available in the community at the specified date and typical for the vessel type in its locale.
6.   The price represents a normal consideration for the vessel sold unaffected by special funding amounts and/or terms, services, fees, costs of credits incurred in the transaction.

The ESTIMATED REPLACEMENT VALUE of the vessel, as equipped, is approximately $45,000 USD.  For the purpose of this survey, replacement value is defined as the cost of replacing the subject vessel with a new equivalent vessel with identical or equivalent capabilities, equipment and gear.

Hoping to boat with the Herreshoff Harbor Pilot  around - Mount Desert Island, off the coast of Maine, is widely known as the home of Acadia National Park and the town of Bar Harbor. If we viewed the island from the air (a look at the Acadia map will do), we would notice north and south aligned gouges scooped out of the land as if by a very large hand. Indeed, in this case, the hand was that of a huge, slow moving, continental glacier over a mile high,... 2 miles thick in some places. When this giant glacier finally melted and retreated, it left rounded mountain tops, long lakes, many boulders, and the 7 mile long Somes Sound - the only fjord on the East coast of the United States. Elsewhere on the island is the massive Cadillac Mountain. Even after being sheared off by the glaciers, it remains the highest point along the North Atlantic Seaboard at 1,532 feet above sea level and provides spectacular panoramic views of Acadia National Park and other out islands.
To the original coastal Abnaki Indians, Mount Desert Island was known as “Pemetic” (the sloping land). Although the Abnaki's permanent villages were located on the mainland, they regularly fished and gathered shellfish from Mount Desert Island. (Check out the Abbe Museum for this history.) The island got its current name from the French explorer Champlain who ran aground here in 1604 AD. Today, Mount Desert Island is best known as the home of Acadia National Park, where land and sea, mountains and shore, people and abundant wildlife meet in a natural and spectacular setting.

There are many people who are surprised to hear that there are actually only 4 official townships on the island. They are Bar Harbor, Mount Desert, Southwest Harbor and Tremont. Bar Harbor encompasses the sections of Eden, Hulls Cove, Salisbury Cove and Town Hill. Mount Desert, although having no official “center,” consists of Hall Quarry, Northeast Harbor, Otter Creek, Seal Harbor and Somesville. With Southwest Harbor comes Manset and Seawall. Bass Harbor, Bernard, Seal Cove, and West Tremont are part of the town of Tremont.

Glad that I'm not going to Bar Harbor & Southwest Harbor , Maine until Sept..
It must be like Coney Island up in the Bar Harbor area with the President be on vacation .

By Felicia Sonmez

Sunday, July 18, 2010

BAR HARBOR, MAINE --President Obama and his family aren't just getting outside the Beltway on their brief vacation here -- they're getting outside, period.

THIS STORY

·                                 An active first family is on the move in Maine

·                                 The Obamas unwind in Maine

Since their arrival Friday afternoon, the Obamas have been biking, hiking and boating their way around Mount Desert Island, the third-largest island on the Eastern Seaboard and home to the 47,000-acre Acadia National Park.

The first stop Friday was a 90-minute bike ride on the lushly wooded trails around Witch Hole Pond at the northern end of the island. Then came a family hike on Cadillac Mountain, at 1,530 feet the highest peak on the East Coast.

The Obamas rounded out their first day with a National Park Service boat ride on Frenchman Bay and a waterfront dinner at Stewman's Lobster Pound. Even dinner was outdoors: The first family, who arrived at the restaurant via boat, sat at a table on a pier overlooking the bay. The president and the first lady dined on lobster, while their daughters shared a shrimp basket, according to restaurant manager Jeff Buffington.

On Saturday, the Obamas played tennis in the morning at the Bar Harbor Club, an elegant compound constructed by J.P. Morgan in 1929. In the afternoon, they traveled to Southwest Harbor, where they grabbed lunch at the waterfront Claremont Hotel before taking in the sights at the Bass Harbor Head lighthouse.

.

My wife’s family owns the Waterfront Claremont Hotel in Southwest Harbor Maine along with several other ocean & lake front property on Mount Desert Island ...

The icons are back.

The images you posted 2 days ago were submitted as attachments.  This forum can not host your images ... see the topic on posting photos.  It needs to be done the way you have done it in the past ... including a link to the image hosted elsewhere.  You will need to re-post them using the approved methodology.

In researching this, I have noticed quite a few attachments in the server directories.  I will need to go through each one and delete if necessary.  If you have other images that were attached rather than linked to, you will need to re-post them as well.

My mother and I just finished restoring a 18' pilot. Beautiful teak, had to rebuild the deck because the balsa core was rotten. I will post before and after pics when the boat is launched. Also got a sail for it custom made by Thurston sails. THe boat is located on cape cod.... It took a lot of work but it is certainly something to be proud of!!!

Used the Farrow paint removal system on the orginal 18 gal. fuel tank to remove the epoxy paint coating and found a large rubber tape that was applied to the tank at the factory , i guess to act as a rubber padding between the deck & the steel tank ?  When i removed the rubber tape , I discovered 3 small pin size holes . I shipped out the tank to be over hauled & repaired !

Replacing the old blower unit with a continous heavy duty JABSCO Blower unit - it is used to draw cooler outside air into the diesel engine cover box !

old unit - not connected (http://i559.photobucket.com/albums/ss38/cardinaljoe/Herreshoff%20Harbor%20pilot/DSC07557.jpg)

one of the holes is for the Blower & the other is a air intake vent for the engine compartment...

I talked to a new Herreshoff Harbor Pilot owner in Cape May , NJ - boat was purchase from City Island , NY . It is not the one that i looked at few years ago ( White Hull ) I believe it went to Booth Harbor ,Maine. This Pilot has a Red hull and is Hull #5 - 1974 .

I bought it from Sonny Brewer from Fairhope, Alabama in 2005. He had posted it on Ebay..but nobody bid. I saw it up there, and after the auction ended...could not stop thinking about it so I contacted him and made an offer.  He had found it a year earlier in Cold Spring Harbor, NY. Listed by Ted of Long Island Marine on behalf of Hewitt Lindsay. Beyond that is speculation, but heard tale of it being a Yacht Club Race Comittee boat at one time. The folks at Long Island Marine almost bought it themselves to use as a tow boat. Heard it was the Yacht Club that changed out engine to give it more power.

It is a 1978, Made by Squadron Yachts in Bristol Rhode Island with bronze builders plate and all. Both I and the former owner believe it to be a custom factory job not listed in standard models brochures. You will too once you see the workmanship in the details. The only obvious remuddle was the replacement of the diesel with a 120hp merc. w reduction. The Hydrolic dual helms look original.

Herreshoff Harbor Pilot - that SOLD !
Joe,

Thanks for touching base. I see one for sale up on Lake Michigan for 18K - a bit pricey for me, but they say it is "mint". This sounds like a good boat for me. Are you the big Kahuna  up there at Cardinal?

The Pilot I purchased does not appear to have scuppers. Is that normal? It appears the deck is
above the waterline. Just wondering.

I've driven past this boat so many times when it was parked across from the chappy fire company. I always thought it was a beautiful boat but it hadn't moved in years. I'd love to see some pics of the restoration!

Does anyone have contact information for Harbor Pilot that was listed, I believe, on Craig's List - Hull #7, original gasoline engine, located in Maine?

Joe - This might intrerest you - Back in the early 90's I had heard that the molds fro the HA had been sold to a guy in Florida and was hoping to re-introduce the boats -not sure if this would have been just the catboat or all the models...and as far as I know it never got off the ground.  Anyway eventually as you know the molds made there way to Com-pac where they were modified to be their Horizon Cat. Well, a guy over at the CBA site is selling what he claims is a 1994 build of the Herreshoff cat (in a tabernacle marconi rig no less) - other then the ports looking like the old Herman Cats (round) looks to me like a Herreshoff America. maybe you can find out if this is a "one off" from before Com-Pac?

LITTLE TOOT
(http://www.thebassbarn.com/forum/attachment.php?attachmentid=22251&d=1260574091)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I put Little Toot in the water last week for the first time in two years. Figured it was better to use her then let her sit until I am ready for the complete restoration. So far in just a week I have put 10 hours on her. The wife, who hates most of my boats, loves Little Toot. Last night she stopped at Boston Market and picked up dinner. We took Toot over to Silver Bay and dropped the hook. We had the place to ourselves.
The crossing to Silver Bay was interesting. The wind was blowing about 20kts out of the ENE. Seas where breaking, white caps, at about 2-3 feet. The boat handled the sea condition very well. Following sea was a piece of cake. Straight beam was ok, as we did take spray into the cockpit. The boat had no tendency to roll or broach. The trip back home into a headsea was a wet one. We took spray over the pilot house. Turned to a quartering headsea and only took spray into the cockpit.
Not one other boat out on the trip home. We had the whole north end of the Barnegate Bay to ourselves except for the seagulls and ospreys.

Really cool little boat that can handle some big stuff.

How does one find out if a boat is still available and contact the owner?  This is really opaque to me at this point.

Hi Dave - We keep a list of original built HMCo boats that are for sale on a "For Sale" page.  Go to the top banner and click on the "Registry" link. You can send a PM (Personal Message) or E-mail to Steve or myself if something is of intrest. We then will make contact with the owner or give you the information.

Additionally there is a for sale section of this forum where people will post items and boats for sale - this will include original HMCo hulls as well as newer builds (such as Fiberglass repros, or the "Pilot" on this thread) . You can PM them directly through the forum - or an e-mail. Use the little envelope or quote box symbol on the lower left hand side of each post.

Let me know if you have any questions.

I have an opportunity to aquire a H18 Catboat.  it is a 1980 built by Aquarius, and the plate on  the centerboard trunk cover says Herreshoff.    I've been considering turning thesailboat plan into a launch plan.  I have an excellent builder interested in doing the work.  seeing that it was a sailboat, it was set up for an outboard.  is it practical to convert to an  inboard, and does anybody know of any used inboard diesels available?  I am well aware of new diesel cost, so it seems that used is  the best route if planning to go inboard.  New to the forum and site.  seems like alot of good knowledge here!

I donated mine to the Mass Maritime program, you can steal it from them. They picked it up in May...it has a great engine. Sounds like you sold your last project.  Hope you get it. Jack

I have recently launched my Herreshoff Yacht Club Launch. It is located in Somerset, MA. I purchased it from William Simich. He bought it in CA and had it shipped to Burr Brothers in Marion, MA. The HIN is TSPHP089M771. The title lists it as a 1977 and the builders plate lists Squadron Yachts as the builder. The original engine was an Iszu Pices 27 2cyl diesel. The engine was not running when I purchased the boat, the owner said it had water in one cyl., and I just happened to have a Yanmar 3GM30F sitting in my garage with no home so I installed that. I don't know how to upload pics on this site so if you want to see it let me know your email address and I will forward you some.

Joe,

The title lists it as a 1977 but I agree with you that it should be a 1971.  Squadron Yachts does not seem to have built any boats prior to 1977 and HIN were not required in 1971 so my quess is that what looks like a 1 is actually a poorly formed 7? :-\

Post by: Cardinal Joe on August 14, 2011, 07:58:14 PM
Hull Identification Numbers – Some answers to your questions!

 

The Hull Identification Number (referred to as a “HIN number”) typically consists of (12) characters – usually capital letters and Arabic numbers with no spaces, slashes, hyphens or other marks in between the letters.

A (3) digit “Manufacturers Identification Code – MIC” is followed by a (5) character set representing the manufacturers hull serial number and… another (4) figures that will represent the date of manufacture.

So it’s going to look like this….

 “ABC followed by 12345 and then 6789”

The first three letters (MIC) will be made in block capital letters or in some cases a mix of letters and numbers (letters are most typical.) These are issued or assigned (in the US) by the Coast Guard and it identifies the plant of manufacture that is unique to the organization or it can simply represent the organization to whom it was issued.

The next four to eight numbers (depends on which manufacturer built the hull… some use 5 characters, some 6, 7 or 8. These are the individual characters that represent the unique hull serial number assigned to that hull. No two boats are assigned the same number and like the others, these too will be capital letters and/or Arabic numbers with one exception… the letters “I”, “O” and “Q” cannot be used.

The last set of numbers (usually four) are often combinations of letters and numbers that will indicate a month and year of manufacture and the model year for which the boat is built. The “date code” aspect of this set has been handled in three different ways over the years and has to be “interpreted” according to some of the following information.

Country Code – This is an optional addition to the Hull Identification Number. Manufacturers of boats have the option of adding the prefix – i.e. “CA-“ (block capitals and a hyphen) in front of the HIN number. This is a mandatory requirement for manufacturers who are exporting to another country (such as the European community) however this is not a part of the accepted mutual recognition of Hull Identification Numbers between the US and Canada.

Marking on the Hull – The HIN number is to be permanently affixed into the hull or hull member, or on a plate, such that the removal of the HIN or plate would be obvious and non-normal to the surrounding surfaces or area. No character of the HIN is to be less than 6 mm (.250”) in height and width. The HIN is to be located as follows:

On the transom above the load waterline (prefereably on the upper starboard quadrant.)

The starboard side at the aft end of the hull that bears the rudder or steering mechanism if the boat has no transom.
The outermost starboard side at the aft end of the hull, if the boat has more than one hull and no transom.
Some manufacturers had added some additional characters after the HIN but separated from the HIN by a hyphen. (Keep in mind this system is geared to work with all boats, pleasure, commercial, aluminum, fiberglass, sail, power, etc. – so the hull and manufacturer variations do take in some latitude.)

 

The three different numbering systems used are as follows … (newest version first) - The simplest way to figure which one your boat is using is to first identify the year you believe the hull was built. Then look for the system that was most likely in use during that time.

 

System 1

Most builders started using this format in January of 1985 and it is still in use today.

ZZZ 12345 A 5 88

ZZZ - MIC code (Unique to the company that built the hull)

12345 – Hull Serial number

A – Month of manufacture

5 – Year of manufacture

88 – Model year

All of this goes with the following letter designations for each month as follows:

 

January – A  February – B  March – C  April – D   May – E   June – F

 

July – G  August – H  September – I  October – J  November – K  December – L

 

Character nine is the letter of the alphabet that indicates the month during which construction or assembly began.

Character ten is the last numeral of the Year during which construction or assembly began.

Characters eleven and twelve are the last two numerals representing the Model Year for which the boat was built.

FYI… it’s always a bit confusing for those boats who may be documented, registered or licensed as being a 1988 (built in December) but may not have been completed for any number of reasons until the first, second or third month in 1989. It doesn’t mean anything significant but some people want to get attached to the specific “Tuesday” when she rolled out of the shed! They’re going to have some problems with this….

 

System 2

Most builders used this format from the “mid-70’s” until December of 1984 and some still continued to utilize the previous (earlier) system. (Initially this system was adopted and “suggested for use” and later on it was not a suggestion by the Coast Guard but a mandatory request. That’s why some manufacturers took their own time to comply or not.)

  ZZZ 12345 G77E

ZZZ - MIC code (Unique to the company that built the hull)

12345 – Hull Serial number

G77E – Month and year of manufacture

All of this goes with the following letter designations for each month as follows:

 

August – A  Sept – B  October – C   November – D   December – E

 

January – F  February – G  March – H   April – I   May – J   June – K  July - L

Character nine is the spacer letter (G) – before the year.

Character ten and eleven are the last two numerals of the model year, which begins in August of the preceeding calendar year.

Character twelve is a letter of the alphabet indicating the month during which construction or assembly began.

 

System 3

Most builders used this format (on a more voluntary basis than regulatory) from the 1960’s until the mid 1970’s and some converted to the newer system ahead of others.

  ZZZ 12345 1275

ZZZ - MIC code (Unique to the company that built the hull)

12345 – Hull Serial number

1275 – Month and year of manufacture – clearly simpler than the coded system.

 

Character nine and ten indicate the actual calendar month (01 thru 12) used.

Character eleven and twelve are the last two numerals of the calendar year.

In this case, the date of manufacture is the month and year during which the construction or assembly began.

FYI, I have a Harbor Pilot TSPHP086M78A that I would like to sell.  She has been on the hard for the past five years and needs attention to wood work and gel coat but was repowered by Oldport Marine with a Yanmar 3GM about eight or ten years ago with 500hrs on the meter.  Have mast, steadying sail etc.   Also has a trailer (that needs brakes).   I am the third owner as far as I can tell.  I believe she was originally owned by the Newport RI harbormaster.   She ran well when I took her out and winterized the engine.   Will undoubtedly need the fuel tank flushed (old fuel) and new batteries too.  This is a project boat primarily due to the long layup and cosmetics.  She is otherwise sound.

Lovely boat, I just decided to go back to sail and didn't have time to manage two boats.   Currently on Prudence Island, RI.  Contact me if you are interested.  Have some photos but don't know how to post them here.

I emailed you some pics awhile ago that you were going to post, you did email me back to say that you received them. If you still have themthe only differences I can see is the addition of the bow dodger, and vhf radio which the previous owner had put on by Burr Brothers.

John,

Looking closely at the pictures of the yacht club launch from CA I can tell you that it is without a doubt my boat. It is back in New England less than 12mi from where she was originally built. I was wrong about the vhf radio being installed by the person I purchased it from as it is obviously there on the port side of the console. The black square on the front of the console is the remote speaker for the vhf. My boat also has 4 rod holders on the engine cover located in the same place as those shown on that boat. You may have noticed a small black spot to the port side of the battery switch, that is an on/off toggle switch for a raw water wash down pump. I will send you some more pics as soon as I relaunch the boat this weekend, I pulled it for Irene.

I have a Theory on the Herreshoff Pilot Models > Harbor ,Bay Fisherman and Launch series Pilots , the Hull #'s are in Sequence! Hull ID #'s on all three Pilots Models all have a Bronze Plate stating Herreshoff Pilot has shown below :

In looking at the eBay Auction  Herreshoff Bay Fisherman its hull # is 79 in 1976 and looking at the hull # of the Herreshoff Harbor Launch with the opitional bow dodger which is Hull # 89 in 1977 and my Herreshoff Harbor Pilot Hull # 63 in 1974 ...... Well there is just No way that there could be 79 Bay Fisherman models or 89 of the Harbor Launch boats produced ......!!!!!!

I wonder if the Hull # on these Herreshoff Hulls are the # of hulls produced for all six models or are they individual hull #'s for each model ?

In 1985 Nauset Marine ..... Located in Hyannis MA ..... Started to produce the Herreshoff Harbor Pilot Model after purchasing the Original Molds of the Herreshoff Pilot .....    Nauset Marine modified the Hull Mold to have " No Cat Rudder " ( Most of the early Herreshoff Harbor Pilots have a Cat Like Rudder )

(http://i559.photobucket.com/albums/ss38/cardinaljoe/Herreshoff%20Harbor%20pilot/IMG_3707.jpg)

The reason I don't have better pictures of this Herreshoff Bay Fisherman is that the family 1969 Mako 19 footer that i have been using since 1969  had some motor issues , so i had to take the mail boat to the Outer Islands.  This was as near to the Herreshoff that i could get to take these less than perfect foto's.......

So , the question is did Nauset Marine start a New Hull # series or leave off with the early Hull #'s from Squadron Yachts ? Well , 1985 Sky King is hull # 115 .  need to find some pilot's with hull #'s from 95 to 114 .

Joe - Nauset   purchased the Harbor Pilot, America, Eagle and Scout molds from Squadron Yachts  in the early 80's. Nauset built a handful of Pilots,  America's and Downeasters(Eagles), the Scout never went into production. The America molds were later sold and the Scout, Downeaster and pilot molds were later scraped do to thier poor condition.Sky Kings' hull number started at 111, not 101 as I stated, My mistake, sorry never to happen again! Any other questions give me a shout I'll do my best to answer them. From :

Correction - I think ?????   Nowalk and Williams started building the Pilot's first in 1974 with the Cat Rudder and stop production the same year ,Why ???? and then came SQUADRON YACHTS,INC - who continue the Cat rudder design through 1974 year . Then change over to the "NO Cat Rudder"edtion in 1975.... along comes Nauset Marine edtion in 1985 , who purchase the modified hull mold (No Cat Rudder) from SQUADRON YACHTS ,INC .......

I need Hull #'s on some of these Pilot's to truly know if my theories are Correct ..... Cardinal Joe

LOLA is Hull # 64
Owner statement -Built at the renowned Nowak & Williams yard in Bristol, Rhode Island, this classic Herreshoff is the only one available on the West Coast. Hull #64.
Well,I thought that Nowak & Williams when out of business in 1974 ?  I have an issue with the owners statement , because my Pilot is Hull # 63 and my title states :SQUADRON YACHTS,INC !  Also my VIN # state it was built in 1974 , but the model year on my title is 1975.......

Take note at the bottom of this bronze plate...it states Builder: SQUADRON YACHTS (1975 to ?).

Now look at the bottom of my bronze plate ....it states Builder: Nowak & Williams (1974).

I will update this poor foto with a new picture...
(http://i559.photobucket.com/albums/ss38/cardinaljoe/Herreshoff%20Harbor%20pilot/DSC07918_edited.jpg)

So, why does my Pilot hull #63 state both Builder's Plates ? Well ,maybe Nowak & Williams started production of my 1974/1975 Pilot and SQUADRON YACHTS finish my Pilot ?  Or when SQUADRON YACHTS purchased the Pilot Hull Mold from Nowak & Williams they obtain some left over Herreshoff Pilot Bronze plates ! ..... Obviously , this is another theory of mine .....
Title: Re: herreshoff 18'
Post by: Cardinal Joe on October 09, 2011, 01:43:39 PM
Theories are nice base on some data.  But , this is what we do know :

18' Herreshoff Harbor Pilot is Hull #2
•Year: 1974
•Last Listed Price: US$ 14,900 (09/09)
•Sold: US$ 12,000 (04/10)
•Located in E. Dennis, MA

(http://newimages.yachtworld.com/2/1/2/5/1/2125182_1.jpg?1253888567000)

So, if hull #2 was built in 1974 by Nowak & Williams and i have not been able to locate any earlier years of the Pilot , it could be true , that the Nowak & Williams Yard only built these Pilots for one year 1974 !
Title: Re: herreshoff 18'
Post by: Cardinal Joe on October 10, 2011, 02:50:07 AM
We also now know that this HULL was built in 1970 for the Herreshoff   America model and 1974 for the Pilot Series.....

It's about 13.6" long.

FUEL TANK installation and Battery management

Also, it appears that my Pilot is the only one that I have seen with the original steel (18 gal.) fuel tank !  Reason being is that over the years, they all rot out on the bottom of the tank and need to be replaced. My tank included, which developed tiny pin holes and I had them repaired so, I could stay original !
NOTE > that all of the Replaced fuel tanks in other pilots , either had to cut out a piece of the fiberglass trim to reinstall the hose clamps or cut out the fuel fill neck in the gunnels , to gain access to the top hose clamp fitting . The original fuel tank was installed before the top deck & side moldings were installed, leaving no direct access to the upper hose clamp. Removing the original tank was easy, by just cutting the fuel hose and removing the wooden floor trim that keep it in place.    I had to invent a custom tool to be able to reinstall my original fuel tank back into my pilot ……. Take note on my Pilot that no piece of added teak trim was used to cover up the cut out section of the deck or side molded fiberglass trim …. I will show pic’s of other fuel tank installations on other Pilots.  Note other owners had two choices either cut out a section of the deck/side trim or put in a smaller size fuel tank (12 to 15 gallons).  There is another option of moving the fuel tank from its present location to another location ….. I was thinking about cutting out dual hatches on the port & starboard side of the cat bench seating and installing two 12 gal’s fuel tanks under the mold seating.  This option would have worked just fine and even increased my travel range with the extra 6 gal’s of fuel, but I decided to stay original…… That is until I added the Bronze Port Hole to the cabin bulkhead wall. So I could see through the cabin when sitting on the custom teak cabinet seat that house my two batteries and a 30 amp plug in adaptor & volt meter gauge unit ….  Note > being that the Pilot is NOT a self bailing boat and needs to work off of the batteries for the bilge pump , I had a 110 electrical outlet install so, that a 2amp battery charger unit could keep the batteries fully charged during rain storms , etc ,etc ….  I would think if you were on a mooring ball, a solar panel unit connected to the batteries would also work fine, if it didn’t rain for 40 days & 40 nights????? …… Hum….????? Thoughts …..   My next topic will be the Location for the batteries on a Pilot !

These Pilot's installed New smaller tanks between 12 to 15 gal's instead of the orginal 18 gal's tank . With a smaller fuel tank , there is NO need to notch out an opening in the side molding , because everything is accessible .

I to thought my Pilot had a 25 hp motor , but at the Atlantic City Boat Show a few years back, i ran into the Westerbeke Factory Rep. and he ask me to send him a picture of my Westerbeke motor , because some of the Pilot edtion's had an optional upgrade motor, which was either the 25 hp or the 30 hp.  The so called " Bullet Proof Westerbeke 30 hp diesel ", was made for the British Taxi Cab fleet in England and some of them are still in use today with thousands & thousands of hours on them .
The Herreshoff Harbor Launch model came standard with the Westerbeke 30 hp and the Fisherman model plus the Harbor Pilot model came with a standard Westerbeke 15 hp motor . The Westerbeke 25 hp would have been an upgraded option back in 1974 .

Well, it was a very short season for my Pilot , she was only used for two weeks in late Aug. then i went on vacation in Maine and never put her back in Sept. ...... I had made a earlier decision not to launch her after all that restoration work had been done , because she was for sale. I will not make that same stupid decision again next season if she is still not sold !  She is now stored again inside for another Winter season .

Joe,
  Will do.  I've been looking for a Westerbeke service manual for the 1970's era engines.  Do you know the Model Number of the 25 HP and 30 HP Westerbekes?

No, most of them have been "marinized " from another engine!
Title: Re: herreshoff 18'
Post by: Cardinal Joe on October 23, 2011, 03:57:38 PM
My Westerbeke 30 hp in my 1974 Pilot. Turns out this is a British Leyland engine, the same one in the London taxicabs (I'm told)! Westerbeke marinized it, as they do with most of the engines they sell.
A recent discussion with one of the engineers at Westerbeke revealed that the original W-30 engine was designed to have a full throttle RPM of 2350 and that the reduction for best 'power' efficiency is at 2115 RPM.
I admit that even as experienced as I may be in my theory, I am guilty of rarely running my own Westerbeke at more than about 2000  RPM for what 'Sounds' and 'Feels' to be its comfort zone when powering upwind in a bit of a sea. Generally, if just wandering towards the next waypoint, the tachometer rarely sees more than about 1800 RPM and my Pilot clocks out a steady 5.9 knots, consuming about .5 gallons per hour. Fuel efficiency certainly suffers measurably for the sake of another quarter of a knot.
The Westerbeke 30 diesel in my boat spends far more time at 12 - 1500 RPM charging batteries that it does pushing the presumed 2200 pound (dry), cat displacement hull at 85% of the theoretical hull speed (of 6.8 knots).

Post by: Cardinal Joe on October 23, 2011, 04:44:56 PM
By design, the diesel engine thrives on a higher effort factor than the gasoline engine. This design element is most often determined by its predetermined load at a predicted RPM range. The diesel seems, by most experts, 'happiest' when it is carrying its expected load at 85-90% of its maximum RPM.

Joe,
  In answer to a couple of your questions:

The Harbor Pilot I just bought won't get to me in South Carolina for another week or two.  But the paperwork I've received shows the hull number as TSPH05000774 and the boat was registered as a 1976.  Should it have been a '74?

The motor is listed as a 25 hp Westerbeke diesel, 4-91, AS7-71CR, serial number 260B509, fresh water cooled.  I don't know how many hours it has on it.

Full tank is supposedly aluminum -  18 gallon mounted amidship on the starboard side.

I sure am anxious for it to arrive.  I don't know how much I'll be able to work on it over the winter (I have two other none boat projects underway).  But I want to go over it thoroughly and begin a a "Must Do" list and an "eventually" one.  My prime goal is getting it in the water come spring even if it might look a little shoddy.  As much as I've wanted one of these boats, "pretty" can wait :)

Jack - your Pilot is hull # 50 ,built in July and its a 1974 - not a 1976 ..... because of two reason - one being the VIN# and the other is it has a Cat Rudder.....

North Cove Yacht Club History - ncycnews@gmail.com

North Cove Yacht Club (41 17' 4" N, 72 22' 0" W) is located in North Cove at the mouth of the Connecticut River in the town of Old Saybrook.

The club was created in 1968 by a small group of yachtsmen whose hailing port and homes were in Old Saybrook.

Over the last several years the Club has acquired a fleet of boats for members’ use.  At present the fleet is comprised of a launch, three utility Boston Whalers, two rowing dinghies, ten sailing dinghies, three 420s and four Hunter 90s.

In 2001 the Club sold the existing launch and replaced it with a Herreshoff Pilot 18 ft. launch.

Herreshoff Harbor Pilot trailer specs......

Bunk VS Roller Trailer for the Herreshoff Harbor Pilot .....

Greetings-------- in response to the trailer specifications for your HERRESHOFF Harbor Pilot I recently purchased a Sea Lion 18 foot 3100 pounds single axle bunked trailer. I transported a Herreshoff America from Smith Mountain Lake Virginia to Oneco Connecticut without any problems. After doing extensive research I decided upon purchasing a sea lion trailer it costs me approximately $1850 with a spare tire and tongue jack as added accessories. I have found the trailer to be of excellent quality with no defects and you will be able to purchase a similar vehicle by using their website. If I can be of any assistance please don't hesitate to call me at 1-860-591-8619<jacaparco@aol.com> ,best of luck in your future endeavors. Sincerely John Caparco -

In Response To: Herreshoff Harbor Pilot trailer specs (rbstuart)

My HA 18 sits on a roller trailer with four keel rollers. You need to have the keel supported and either fitted bunks, which will provide more support, or rollers, which are easier to fit, to support the hull as it is thin and won't support a lot of weight...My cat stays in my yard on the trailer, but if you are going to haul any distance, I would get a trailer with bunks that is fit to the hull. Dual axles will tow better than single, but it would be more difficult to move around manually. If distance is in your trailering plans, go with the dual axle if possible. Good luck. Don

this post was this summer from the owner of "Little Toot".....

(http://www.thebassbarn.com/forum/attachment.php?attachmentid=22251&d=1260574091)
 
I put Little Toot in the water last week for the first time in two years. Figured it was better to use her then let her sit until I am ready for the complete restoration. So far in just a week I have put 10 hours on her. The wife, who hates most of my boats, loves Little Toot. Last night she stopped at Boston Market and picked up dinner. We took Toot over to Silver Bay and dropped the hook. We had the place to ourselves.
The crossing to Silver Bay was interesting. The wind was blowing about 20kts out of the ENE. Seas where breaking, white caps, at about 2-3 feet. The boat handled the sea condition very well. Following sea was a piece of cake. Straight beam was ok, as we did take spray into the cockpit. The boat had no tendency to roll or broach. The trip back home into a headsea was a wet one. We took spray over the pilot house. Turned to a quartering headsea and only took spray into the cockpit.
Not one other boat out on the trip home. We had the whole north end of the Barnegate Bay to ourselves except for the seagulls and ospreys.

Really cool little boat that can handle some big stuff. ;D

Hi Joe,

HIN  TSPHP0060374 (Hull #6) Built 1974 by TPI
Added 600# of lead ballast this spring.  It made all the difference in the world lessening the roll considerably.  Had the prop re-pitched from 10 to 12 which gives us 6kts at 3000 RPM.  Ran through 12 gallons of diesel fuel which equates to roughly 50 hours steaming at 5kts.

Pics attached.  I assume that you got the photos that I sent last time (should have been 14 shots.

Regards,  Merrill

Here's a couple shots of the Harbor Pilot I just purchased from a boatyard in Guilford, CT.  It's a running boat but needs some TLC.  If the Hour Meter is accurate, the motor has less than 2000 hours on it.  But I want to go through the cooling and fuel systems to make sure all is well and will look at the electrics as well.  As far as the rest of the boat is concerned, I'm just going to strip and repaint the bottom and polish up the red gel coat.  Hopefully I'l be able to do all this before the next boating season which start a bit early here in South Carolina.

Joe,
  Wow.  What a great looking motor,  I'm certainly envious.

  My hour meter reads 1984 hours, but I don't know how accurate that is or if it's even working.  The motor doesn't look too bad.  Initially I'm going to pay the most attention to the "bolt ons" and not worry to much about the guts of the motor.  I've heard stories of them running quite well for many more than the 2,000 hours mine seems to have.

  By the way I hope no one tries to hold you to the $2150 price you have listed for your totally restored Pilot in your South Jersey Craig's List ad.  :)

Most Pilots have there Batteries stored in the bow hatch area. (http://i559.photobucket.com/albums/ss38/cardinaljoe/Herreshoff%20Harbor%20pilot/DSC09525_edited.jpg)



I've also seen batteries placed in the stern of the Pilot under Cat Seating ....

Getting back to this foto , what you don't see is the 30 amp plug-in shorepower receptacle  to the right of the batterty switch/meter units ....
(http://i559.photobucket.com/albums/ss38/cardinaljoe/DSC09801_edited.jpg)


My Pilot has a " Inverter Unit " > 30 amp to 110 volt box receptacle.......
(http://i559.photobucket.com/albums/ss38/cardinaljoe/Herreshoff%20Harbor%20pilot/DSC07911_edited.jpg)

Follow the wiring from the above foto > you can see the Red battery swicth wires , then the one smaller black wire to the amp/volt gauge meter unit and to the left you can see the 30 amp yellow cable line going into the Inverter unit (not shown in foto) then if you look at the upper left hand corner of the above foto there is the corner of the 110 volt metal receptacle box.  Note.....  If a large storm is in the forecast (Hurricane) I may connect a 2 amp battery charger unit , because the Pilot is NOT a self baling boat and needs a bilge pump to remove the rain water...etc,etc.

Question ? - WHY the extra weigh to the port side of the Pilot's ?  Yes the Starboard side has an 18 gal. fuel tank = about a 126 lbs/diesel or about 108 lbs /unlead gas .....?    The engine & batteries are usually centered in the middle of the hull ......  so, why the off set of weigh to the port side ???    Any thoughts on this subject ??????  Anyone !

If ONLY my eyes were that good!  I've sailed out of the Camden club and visit there several times a year, and have ridden the launch regularly for years. She's perfect for that club, the harbor conditions and her duties.  They'd seriously consider getting another if anyone knows of one.

rbgarr - did the Camden Yacht Club Herreshoff Launch have a "Cat Rudder" ?  Do you remember if she was diesel powered .....  Do you know the Harbor Master @ Camden Y C - could you find out the Hull # or better yet the VIN # of the Launch......
Title: Re: herreshoff 18'
Post by: rbgarr on December 03, 2011, 11:14:30 PM
The boat was repowered with a new diesel last winter and I'm pretty sure she has the underslung rudder. Check the Camden YC's webpage for contact info re the launch service/steward. I'm pretty sure the boat is all shrinkwrapped for the winter.

Post by: Cardinal Joe on December 04, 2011, 04:29:15 AM
I sent an email yesterday to the harbor master of the Camden Yacht Club , have not recieved a return email as of yet .....

So, is underslung rudder ihe proper name for the Cat Rudder ?
Title: Re: herreshoff 18'
Post by: rbgarr on December 04, 2011, 05:25:15 AM
I'd call a cat rudder one that is mounted on pintles and gudgeons on or aft of the transom while an underslung rudder is one mounted under the aft part of the hull with the rudder post through a stuffing box.

The Yacht Club is closed for the winter and only manned by the club secretary who won't have a clue what you're asking about. I'm also not sure what you mean by the harbor master of the CYC.  There's a harbor master for the town of Camden, but he wouldn't know either.  You'll have more luck in the spring, say around June 15, when the club reopens.

The Christmas boat parade with boats all lit up with lights took place here the other day and there was a Herreshoff Pilot in among the lobsterboats. I saw it about a twenty feet from shore and I'm sure it was one of them.  Then it went off into the darkness with a 'mermaid' fanning her tail off the transom under a lighted palm tree to I don't know where.

I know these boats are Rare .....   The state of Fla. has Herreshoff Pilot's , i have posted past pic's of these boats .

Well, leaving Saint Augustine @ sunrise and cruising down the ICW, I had a lucky feeling today! Could I find that elusive Herreshoff Harbor Pilot  ……?  The problem with Fla. is there are thousand of canals & lagoons off the ICW, and I could be cruising right pass that sweet rig and not even know it…… As I was coming up to Daytona Beach , my heart started beating faster knowing there are 4 large marina’s on the ICW , I have stayed @ the famous Halifax Harbor Marina , several times in the past ,knowing its one of the biggest marina in the area , I thought my odds were good ….  NOPE!  So, I continue down the ICW, thinking to myself, Cheez even a blind mouse finds food every once in awhile?   As I’m coming up on the town of Melbourne (use to have a 67 X 100ft long stucco green dragon on its point reef, as a land mark in the past years). Remembering my past bloggs there was a Herreshoff Harbor Pilot located in that town, can’t remember the owner name? …. NOPE!   Sadden I continue my journey south, until I came upon Vero Beach!  Knowing Vero Beach Marina had both dock slips & mooring slips, this could be the place…..  With great expectations I enter the marina longing for a sighting, there in the distance of mooring balls was the majestic hull from 1 to 10 a definite “10”, has my eyes start to wander up, Hum... it was a “Herreshoff American “……  Oh well, heading to the world renowned Sailfish Harbor Marina on Singer island…..  Stay Tuned !

Left Palm Beach this morning after breakfast, decided to go the outside route and run a ½ mile off  the beach to Miami, connect with Hawk Channel and run down inside the reef to Key Largo…..  Zero chance of spotting a Herreshoff Harbor Pilot today!  The ocean was like a sheet of glass, took some pics of a huge sailboat leaving Palm Beach Inlet next to me ….  Ocean Reef has traffic, lots of Yachts ….. Snow birds are down!

I'm thinking that a 4 hp would be ok on a America or Scout model , but a Harbor Pilot has a diesel motor & 18 gal. fuel tank ......  6 hp maybe the better choice for the Pilot series because of the extra weight factor ?

seesell ... i see from the foto above that the motor bracket will clear the option swim platform.

PS> I'm not disagreeing with you about your 4 hp motor, its just a theory of mine about 6 hp vs 4 hp , especially going thru NJ narrow bridges with incoming tide running at 5 to 6 knots do to the Venturi flow effect !  ;D
Title: Re: herreshoff 18'
Post by: seeswell on December 11, 2011, 05:43:54 PM
Joe,

I went through the Stone Bridge channel at the Tiverton Basin with mine against a 4 knot tide without any issues other than it took a bit longer to do it. If my engine was very unreliable and I planned on useing the outboard frequently then 6HP or even an 8HP 2 stroke would be my choice. For occasional use a 4HP with a high thrust prop  does the job for me.

Bill
Title: Re: herreshoff 18'
Post by: Cardinal Joe on December 12, 2011, 04:29:45 AM
Agreed......  I have had both 2 stroke & 4 stroke motors, my 4 hp/ 2 stroke had about the same torque has my 6 hp/ 4 stroke going through bridges ..... But ,for long trips and better fuel comsumption, I'll take the 4 stroke over the 2 stroke ...... :)

Arey's Pond built a lovely wood 20' launch based on a catboat hull some years ago. http://www.areyspondboatyard.com/apbylaunch.html

It's elegant, as you can see.  The owner used it for a few years and then put it on the market. The last listing I saw for it they were asking at or around $20k and it sold, I imagine, for somewhat less than that.  It took more than a season on the market to sell.  Even the finest pedigreed, built and maintained boats can go for 40% of their asking prices in this market, if they sell at all. I've seen it.

Gelcoat is better ….. more expense to gelcoat my pilot.... it was just under $4000.00

Awgrip is a premium paint job with a hard finish….. to paint a Pilot it’s between $1200.00 to $1500.00… if you hit / rub up against a fuel dock or piling and damage the Awgrip; you have to paint the whole side of the boat.
There is AWGRIP 2000 paint that allows you to spot paint the damage, but its not has good of a gloss paint job as regular Awgrip.

+++++++ DIESEL vs Unlead Gas ++++++++++

If replacing a motor which is best, for your kind of boating ?

The One Big Diesel Advantage...... If one is willing to travel at slower speeds, the one great advantage that diesel holds over its gas counterpart is lower fuel consumption, lower fuel cost ? and greater range. If fuel range is a consideration, then diesel wins hands down.

 Of course this is entirely dependent on how fast you want to travel; if you want to run at the same speeds as gas power is capable of, then even that advantage fades
By now you should begin to understand why small, light weight diesels are not necessarily a better choice for small boats. That is, of course, unless you just "want" diesels, which a lot of people do, but not necessarily for rational reasons. The argument for gas engines is that they're cheap, efficient, and far less costly to maintain. And they are certainly just as reliable as diesels, all things considered.

The problems that ethanol in fuel are creating for gasoline engines (both inboard and outboard), fuel lines, filters, tanks, carbs, etc. are introducing uncertainty about how dependable they will be over a season.  Unless the fuel is consumed by the engine pretty rapidly, as it would be in commercial duty, things can get ugly and expensive in surprising and frustrating ways.

i will state that if , I had a choice of a new diesel engine vs a rebuilt older diesel, I'll go with the older heavy duty iron cast motor than the newer light weight motors for sale today!  Same with the older Starters and Generator/Alternator unit because of the copper wiring and the weight of the older units ....

History of the Universal Diesel Motor
In the early 1970’s sailboat manufacturers began fitting Yanmar diesel auxiliaries instead of the Atomic Four gasoline auxiliary, however Atomic Four sales continued to grow until their peak year of 1975. In 1976, as sales of the Atomic Four started to drop, Universal met the challenge from Yanmar by buying Kubota diesel engines and selling marinized versions, under the name Universal. Atomic Four sales gradually declined as manufacturers increasingly used diesel engines, and manufacturing ceased in 1980, with sales continuing until all units were sold in 1984. The last OEM (original equipment manufacturer) to fit the Atomic Four was Catalina, who used it up until the 1985 Catalina model year. After 1985 Universal sold only diesel marine engines, which were fitted by several OEM, including Catalina.

Luv my A-4.... Thing runs like a top and is MUCH quieter than similar Diesels....I think it would run on anything...but why waste good scotch. And I can actually work on the thing myself without a degree in mechanical engineering...

The Model M4-30, also called the Atomic Four diesel, a 52 cu in, 25 hp, 4 cylinder, based on the Kubota Y-850 block, was built from 1988 to 1997. Approximately 470 were sold. The Model M4-30 was offered as a diesel replacement for the original Atomic Four gasoline engine. It was similar to its namesake, since it was a 4 cylinder model weighing slightly less (122 kg / 270 lb as opposed to the original’s 150 kg / 330 lb with reduction drive - the M4-30 was only offered with a reduction drive) and generating slightly less power (18.6 kW / 25 hp at 3,600 rpm as opposed to the original’s 22 kW / 30 hp at 3,500 rpm) with a smaller displacement (850 cc / 52 cu in as opposed to the original’s 1,065 cc / 65 cu in).

Q:  Ive neen watching you attempts to sell this boat on yachtworld, ebay, and on craigslist,,,,i know you put alot of money into this, but that does not mean youll get that money out...your price is getting closer to realistic, but not there yet...if you wish to sell this boat for 15000, pls let me know...im in upstate ny...have 600 feedbacks thx rich Feb-01-12

A:   Rich, I have been actively promoting the boat since its completion in 2010. I've been renovating classic American boats for years and, you're right, have invested a considerable amount of money in each to accomplish results which meet my satisfaction. I think you can tell from the pictures, this boat is exceptional. Others, not as nice, have sold in the range of $18,000-$20,000, but the current soft economy has everyone thinking twice before spending. I appreciate your offer and would encourage you to actually come down and see the boat, if its still available, in the spring. I am sure you'd find the trip worthwhile. Joe

 antik_lov, When I look at the pictures, the boat looks different from one to the others? 
 I have post pictures of the Herreshoff Harbor Pilot in stages of its restoration. Present condition: Totally Restored !. 

 Does the boat for the auction have a mast, a cockpit window, and the rear seat?  YES

 What is the total weight including the trailer?
  Boat Displacement: 2200 lbs Dry Load plus 23 ft Trailer is around 1200 lbs , I have towed this boat with a vehicle rated at 5000 lbs towing capacity. But to be SAFE i would reference www.tailerboats.com. they have tow capacities and powerboattests.com have total weights as does trailer boats on their tests.- joe2897

I saw your mermaid on EBay and thought to bid on it for my mermaid crazy daughter... but didn't.  Hope you got a good price for it.

I'm curious about your trailer. Was it custom made with those adjustable pads and do their posts that extend down below the frame ever 'bottom out ' on dips or uneven sections in the road?

Yes , the trailer is Custom for The Pilot ....I’ve never had an issue with the support arm poles hitting the surface while towing the Pilot ……  The pictures are more deceiving than they look, but I will go down to the shore this coming weekend to measure the clearance!   If it’s an issue, it’s an easy fix with a pipe cutter unit ….. Thanks for bring it to my attention!  Cardinal Joe

Had a very nice couple Bob & Rachel from Frederick,Maryland came an look at my Herreshoff Harbor Pilot today . They seem impressed with the condition and restoration of the Pilot , but not so much with the appearance of the custom trailer . The trailer may not have the greatest look to it , but is definitely road worthy/ready.... to make any trip anywhere !  I think if they were to sell the used custom 23 ft dual axle tilt trailer with all the work / parts that was done to it ....... it should sell for between $1000.00 to $ 1500.00. 

New Paint Job for the trailer ??????

Anyone know the cost of a new 18 foot single axle bunk trailer ( 2500 GWR load) for a Herreshoff Harbor Pilot ?

 I thought I had found a good home for my 40 year old “ Herreshoff Harbor Pilot “, summers in Annapolis, MD and winters in Fla., but the deal fell through at the last moment nothing to do with the Pilot.  The buyer decided not to retire and continue working, and had no time to use the boat.  Part of me was Sad but another part of me was Happy!   Oh, well the good old girl got a better trailer under her now and that should make her happy ….. ;D

Title: Re: herreshoff 18'
Post by: rbgarr on April 20, 2012, 05:59:11 PM
This won't sound kind, but I think the Herreshoff name attached to the catboats, sloops, Scouts and Harbor Pilots is overly emphasized. Halsey Herreshoff designed it, of course, and it may be related to an earlier Herreshoff half model but it's essentially a catboat hull in different arrangements. Marshall Marine pretty much dominates the market in the line of small catboats.  The Pilot is a yet more specialized boat and therefore in an even thinner market.  But your boat is well restored and is just waiting for someone who wans an open harbor cruiser of the type.

Post by: Cardinal Joe on April 21, 2012, 05:09:27 AM
Yea .....  ;)  The only reason my Herreshoff Harbor Pilot was the # 1 boat viewed on Yacht World is because of the " Herreshoff " name .......  That being said the Pilot is still a cool little boat that turns heads, everywhere she cruises.

Comes with a bimini top as well. It is a full inboard, powered by a B.M.W. 45 HP Diesel, with 855 hrs. The cabin has ample space for storage and sleeping. Quite the unusual boat and it is easy enough to trailer! Would be great boat for Boston area and the Cape! HERE IS YOUR CHANCE!! $14,500 Call for more information Tel# 508 525 2710.

I think that Pilot was just sold (without a trailer) at the Massachusetts Maritime Institute auction.  I looked into trying to buy it last year but it had already been donated to the Institute.  Must be a re-sell.  Looks pretty good.

Jack > that's Correct , it was " Sky King "..... The Pilot looks a little clean up (wood trim), since the last foto i have of her ......  What do you think she sold for at the auction ?
Title: Re: herreshoff 18'
Post by: WaterJack on April 25, 2012, 02:24:41 PM
The Academy had listed a dollar figure beside the description of each boat up for auction but I'm not sure if they were value indicators or related to minimum bids.  Anyway, Sky King's number was $14,000.  I didn't bid on her because there was no trailer with the boat.  So I have no idea what she went for.

Luckily I stumbled across my Pilot which was a great deal less.

I agree on the clean-up you mentioned,  The boat looks a lot better than the previous pictures I had seen.

Cool Partial Restoration Video of a Herreshoff Eagle _ "DIVA"....

http://vimeo.com/3340308 (http://vimeo.com/3340308)

The Eagle hulls came from the same mold of Herreshoff America catboat, but the rig is very different, having an effective headsail and optional topsail that enhanced performance in light air conditions.
 Diva was built in the 1974 by Nowak & Williams of Bristol, Rhode Island. Now Diva is sailing in Italy, in Bari. We have stripped the deck and painted it and cockpit sole in beige and the cabin trunk and cockpit surround in white. We have removed and polished all the bronze hardware.

Joe,
  After watching the Diva restoration video I got to wondering if the owner of the sailboat coated the brass fittings with something after restoring them to such brilliance.  What did you do on your Pilot?
Jack
Title: Re: herreshoff 18'
Post by: Cardinal Joe on April 30, 2012, 04:00:01 PM
 I used  3M™ Emery Polishing Paper , they looked great until i put the Pilot in the water last Aug. for two weeks.  They now have that patina look again ,but without the green color.  One of the reasons i clean up the bronze hardware was the previous owner of my pliot had years of paint brush spots on all the cleats from painting the topside.

If you coat them with varnish paint , it will only wear off with use .
If you polish them with car wax , it would last a little longer ,but you first have to clean them with Emery polishing Paper.   

My cleats should clean right up with just some bronze polish cleaner ....

The Marina was built in the Great Egg Inlet .....

The Ocean City / Longport Bridge is in the back ground.

On newer Diesel engine i use either Fleet Guard by Cummins or CAT Extend Life by Caterpillar ......  Gas Engines - i use Shell Extended Life .....  It should be an Orange Color Anti-freeze.....

Rarely do these desirable little Herreshoff Harbor Pilots ever hit the market. This boat is in good shape and is powered by a 2 cylinder Yanmar diesel engine, she is equipped with a Triad highway trailer. To our knowledge, she is the only Herreshoff Pilot that has been in freshwater her entire life. A real character boat, she is a delightful bay, lakes and river cruiser.

Hi Joe;
 
Thanks for your e mail.
 
I believe the open cabin was done at the factory, it's a nice configuration.. I believe she is hull number 118 or 18
 
I need to find her a good home if you know of anyone.
 
On another subject how many Herreshoff 37' meadow larks and 55' Marco -polo's are in the US ?, and location & owners ?
 
Thanks
 
Eric

Quoted >I believe she is hull number 118 or 18……… Humm……. I’m troubled over the hull# 118 0r 18 ……. My Squadron Yacht Herreshoff Harbor Pilot is a 1974 > hull# 63 , and this is a 1981 Squadron Yacht Herreshoff Harbor Pilot without the Cat Rudder, so it possibility Hull # 118 ???? , but then Nauset Marine built Sky King which is a 1985 Herreshoff Harbor Pilot Hull #115 …..

Which leads back to a previous question I posted a while back > what was  Nowak & Williams yard in Bristol, Rhode Island last Pilot Hull #? And where did Squadron Yachts in Bristol, RI start where first pilot Hull #?   And Nauset Marine in Orleans, MA started either at hull # 101 or 115 ?


I think my Pilot may have been started by Nowak & Williams Yard and finished by Squadron Yachts, > Reason, I have both Bronze Metal plates from both Builders on my 1974 Pilot hull# 63 and we now know that only 1974 built pilots had the Cat Rudder, in 1975 they where built without the Cat Rudder and replaced with the standard under hull prop protected keel/rudder connection. But my Squadron Yacht  title states it a 1975 model year , so could my Hull # 63 be the switch over boat , from Nowak & Williams to Squadron Yachts , so, far I have not come across a duplicate hull # between Nowak & Williams and Squadron Yachts in my data base of Herreshoff Harbor Pilots …..

Thanks , for the quick response to my questions on the Herreshoff Harbor Pilot !  I'm looking into your quesions on the Herreshoff 37' meadow larks and 55' Marco -polo's ?  I have another couple of questions on the 1981 Herreshoff Harbor Pilot > what is the VIN# on the hull or title ?  I'm having a problem with the Hull # 118 or 18 has the correct hull # of this boat , and do you know the original Color of its Hull > White ,Red or Green ?   Thanks Again , Cardinal Joe

An unexpected family situation forces me to put the Harbor Pilot I purchased in October up for sale.  It's not as nice as the $8000 one we've been looking at photos of but it comes with a trailer and other goodies.

For Sale - 1974 Herreshoff Harbor Pilot - located in Hartsville, SC

Photos: http://www.etagloh.phanfare.com/5356432

This an 18 foot fiberglass motor vessel with a Westerbeke diesel and a small cabin.  The boat is based on the Halsey Herreshoff “America" hull from which  at least 6 different boats were built  - the "America" Catboat, the "Eagle" sloop, the cat ketch "Scout", the "Launch", the "Bay Fisherman" and the small tug/pilot boat "Harbor Pilot"

Length is18.2 ft , Beam 8 ft , Draft 1' 10'' , Weight 2200 lbs

The boat has a 1974 Westerbeke  25 Hp,  4 cyl., fresh water cooled diesel with approximately 1700 hrs.  It has a 2:1 reduction and an 18 gal. steel fuel tank.   

It does 8 knots cruise and 12 knots max. and burns 0.5 g/p/h at cruise.

The boat, which has  a full keel for stability and prop/rudder protection for shallow water cruising, is also well suited for offshore cruising and/or fishing. It comes with a bimini top for comfort in either situation.

Constructed by skilled craftsmen at the renowned Nowak & Williams yard in Bristol, Rhode Island, it has a mast and boom, stabilizing sail, bronze hardware and a wooden “swim platform.”  There is also an auxiliary motor mount and lift installed on the transom.

The boat was last in the water in the fall of 2011 when it was removed for the season and winterized.

The boat comes with a single axle trailer with new forward, center and rear keel rollers, new tires, new wheel bearings and seals, new lights and wiring, a new jackstand, and a new Warn 3700 electric winch with wireless remote.

The boat was recently towed from Connecticut to South Carolina without difficulty.  The driver said it “towed like a dream.”

Boat and trailer - $8000
Six HP rebuilt two stroke, long shaft, Johnson/Evenrude outboard auxiliary motor on “roller stand” - $500
Engine spares:
   4 New Glow plugs - $50
   New Lift pump - $50
   Rebuilt fuel injector pump - $500
   New 6 gang electric rocker panel and 3 new Westerbeke gauges - $150
   Used sea water pump with 3 new impellers - - $100
Entire package - $9000

WaterJack - Sorry to heard that you have to sell your Herreshoff Harbor Pilot.  Your price of $ 9,000.00 is a very fair price , considering that my Pilot is selling for $18,995.00.

She should go quick at that Price , Good Luck with your sale.
Title: Re: herreshoff 18'
Post by: WaterJack on June 02, 2012, 06:38:59 PM
Actually the boat and trailer are only $8000.  The other goodies push it up to $9000. 

But I hope I'm able to see it go to a good home fairly quickly.  I really love the little boat.

He also customized the Pilots Windows by adding “Hinges “ with window hardware to allow the four Herreshoff Harbor Pilot Windows to open......... YES > I asked for pictures !!!!!!!

Adam - Agreed , its definitely not a Herreshoff Harbor Pilot , but its a Pilot House small tug , wondering if anyone knows the builder of this boat ,built in MA.  On another note , does anyone know what the metal object is in front of that pilot house mystery tug boat , could it be a water pump for a fire hose or is it a Anchor Winch ? (foto below ).

So, what i have noticed about Tom's Pilot is , it has the Original Bronze Anchor Light Hardware > which is very hard to find on these Pilot's .Two Front Custom Pop-Out Windows , A nice Pin-Stripe in the White boot Stripe and its a Green Color Hull which i believe to be the rarest of the color hulls pilots.

White Hull Pilots are the most common color hulls , then Red Hulls followed by Green Hulls .......

I accidentally found out the previous owners of my Herreshoff Harbor Pilot > today.

I ran into the owner of that small boat yard in Egg Harbor Township, NJ (Bart Dickerson Marine > were I discovered the white hull Herreshoff Scout with No rudder or mast – turn out it belongs to a race horse jockey who purchased it new back in the early 70’s and still owns it today (rudder has rotted away, need new rudder, owner has the mast & old sails..

Anyway back to Bart Dickerson…. when I was asking questions about the old Herreshoff Scout in his yard, I also mention that I own a Herreshoff Harbor Pilot. Bart asked if it was a red hull pilot named “Little Toot “back in the day. I remember sanding the transom to prepare the hull for a new Gelcoat hull, and I could see the name “Little Toot" on the hull. 

Turns out my Herreshoff Harbor Pilot was purchased new back in 1974/1975 by a gentleman named Mr. Nidinger of Ocean City, NJ 08226 who had it docked behind his bay view home 7 St. Bay Ave in OC, NJ – he is deceased. But he sold my Pilot back in the late 70’s to Halliday-Leonard Construction/Builders Inc. who build Custom Single Water Front Homes in Ocean City, NJ….. Little Toot was used has a “Work Boat” for Bulk Head / Piling / Dock construction and Bart Dickerson operated Little Toot for years working for the Halliday family – it was docked on Bay Ave behind Mr. Holden Hummel’s house > who I personally know from the Marina Business and have Winter Stored his 50 ft Hattheras up on land at Cardinal over the last 15 years.  I’m checking to see if John & Margie Showell were the third owners or the fourth of my Herreshoff Harbor Pilot …….. WOW !!!!!!!!!!

I'm looking to Barter my Herreshoff Harbor Pilot for a "Loaded" Black 2006 SLK 55 with a retractable roof and only 2300 original miles on her...... plus $16,000.00 cash ......  The car is worth $50 K plus ...... The owner wants my Pilot and $ 30K ......hmmmmm.....  He is thinking about my offer ...... Hell where only $14 K apart ....... But, not really , nobody  paids full retail today for a boat or car , so if the SLK 55 is worth in the low 50's full retail and my pilot full Retail was $29,995.00 ($25,000.00 invested) and now Wholesale Price is $18,995.00 , then $35,000.00 wholesale price is in the ballpark ....... I use to own a couple of Pre-Owned Car Lots back in the day ......... Both the Pilot & SLK are both to old to obtain a bank loan ...... Boats go back to 1980 and car go back only 5 years..... if your going purchase an 2006 SLK 55 you should be able to write a check for the car or you shouldn't own a SLK 55 > just my 2 cents .......  ::)

Joe: Many thanks for your help yesterday. Turns out, as far as we can determine, you were right. A SS 1/2" X 2.5" long coarse-threaded bolt fit into the hole and tightened up nicely. I am a tad nervous about now pulling out both bolts in order to replace the cutlass bearing--but, maybe after a beer or two, I'll cave in. Will try to send you some pictures ASAP. Best, Woody

Scott Campbell is trying to take pictures with his new i-Phone, and will e-mail them to me. I have often anchored in St. George's Thorofare, the Brigantine lagoon. In a keelboat, sometimes dicey to get into, but always worth it--I have friends who have a townhome overlooking the water. In smaller boats, I would often take the NJI south of AC. But the railroad bridge height is fixed and limits one to a mast height of 30'. Right now I am searching for a rigger in Bridgeport CT to assist in making repairs to a Kenyon mast. I am at Cap'ns Cove, run by the Williams family. Kaye Williams is a well-known boat builder, among other things. He re-did the HMS Rose some years back; she became the HMS Surprise, in the movie Master and Commander. Back to you soon re the Pilot. Sorry I have taken so long. W

Including Beach Heaven , Long Beach Island ( LBI ) , Tuckerton , Mystic Island , Barnegat ( back waters) and on weekends Cruising to Atlantic City to the New Golden Nugget Casino Marina ( old Trump Marina ) !  The new owners Dave & Denise ( Great People ) intent to use the Pilot has much as they can with their friends and Dave will also fish for Striped Bass in the fall season , it’s the prefect boat to troll 4 to 6 knots for Stripers …… Dave will announce her new name shortly, so be on the look out for this Herreshoff Harbor Pilot if you’re navigating through the above waters…… \

Yes ….. My little Red Hull #63 – Herreshoff Harbor Pilot has finally found a “Good Home Port “on Curlew Lagoon in Tuckerton, NJ 08087. She was delivered to Ocean City ,NJ has a Brand New Boat and has manage to stay in New Jersey since 1974 to present ……

Notice the starboard side top deck molding has a cut out > that's where the new fuel tank full hose clamp needed to be connected to the replacement fuel tank , most guys put a piece of teak trim or inspection port hole plate to cover the cut out .  The Fuel tank was installed at the factory ,before the top deck & side molding was installed , never thinking that 38 years later a new fuel tank would be needed !  If you look and my old pilot and now Dave & Denise new Pilot > there is NO hole to cover up , because I invented a custom tool to install the hose clamp to the tank and to the orginial bronze fill cap neck connection ......  8)

Well, I have been looking for a Bass Flag Pole Holder for the last two years , almost had one on eBay , but lost it to a last minute higher bidder and the bid was only a $ 1.00 more than my bid !

Told Dave that he may have a problem finding a Bass Pole Holder and have him the Wooden Flag Pole !  Its only a week later a " The Pug Tug " has a Bass Flag Pole Holder installed on her transom ?  Dave - told me I had been looking in the wrong places , that infact most chome cover flag pole holders were solid bass and chrome plated , so he sanded off the top of a chrome plated holder down to the bass and then polish it up !

Funny to hear from you at this moment. I was watching an elderly couple rig the gaff sails on their cat boat in Black Rock Harbor, CT. The hull looks as if it is a Pilot hull; it's bigger and fuller than the cat boats one commonly sees in NJ and CT. Did they build a cat version? Best, W

Quote -Yes Hook has a new Home! She is at Northeast Sailboat Rescue, berthed at Brewer South Freeport Marine, and is already causing quite a bit of interest and buzz about the harbor!   I will get you out some pictures as time allows. Hook is now serving as harbor launch and bay cruiser for us and most importantly Captain our golden retriever!

Yea, I know it's cheap. It has caused some sad eyes in my house, my wife
and grandchildren loved "Hook". Just looking for a 19 or 20 ' skiff I can
trailer around a little bit.
Anyway, yes it is sold to Northeast Sailboat Rescue in Maine.
Sad day, but this too will pass. Had several serious buyers that I have to
contact as well.
I do have photos of Hook I can send if you want them.

This is a VERY RARE FIND! This Nauset launch is a Herreshoff design and is very hard to find. this boat is perfectly set up, with a wide open cockpit area and horseshoe style transom seating. Comes with a bimini top as well. It is a full inboard, powered by a B.M.W. 45 HP Diesel, with 855 hrs. The cabin has ample space for storage and sleeping. Quite the unusual boat and it is easy enough to trailer! Would be great boat for Boston area and the Cape! HERE IS YOUR CHANCE!! WAS $14,500..REDUCED TO $11,900 Call for more information Tel# 508 525 2710

I have, what I always thought to be an 18' Herreshoff Yacht Club Launch, but now find it is referred to as the Bay Fisherman.  It was built in 1978 L 18'02", B 8', D 1'10". Have not been able to find others on the net. Does anyone know anything about these boats and is there a market for them?  Thanks  Curt.

If the console is on the port side its a YC launch. If its in the middle its a bay fisherman.

Both Models are Launch's and both have the helm console on the port side , unless Customize with a Center Console.

Don't believe this is correct - what makes you think this: "Bay Fisherman = Console on Port Side and Yacht Club Launch = Center Console..........."

YC Launches in general always have a console on the port side as the proper way to approach most yachts is to Starboard. Thus you can grab the moored boat. "Fishing" boats are mostly center consoles. I don't believe the Pilot series deviated from this.

Title: Re: herreshoff 18'
Post by: Cardinal Joe on October 10, 2012, 06:22:45 AM
Adam - I believe the " Bay Fisherman " and "  Yacht Club " are both " Launches " !  In doing reseach today on the models and the position of the helm console , I made a discovery !  In looking at the Herreshoff Brochure of the 6 cat hull models , I noticed that the " Yacht Club Launch " has a (wooden) Shift Handle in it ,which means that the helm console would have been on the port side and I believe that the " Bay Fisherman model " also had the same helm console configuration and that both models had a boarding step ladder.  According to the Bay Fisherman Brochure had a standard 15 hp motor ( Gas or Diesel ) and the  Yacht Club had a standard Westerbeke Diesel 30 hp engine and more Safety features along with being US Coast Guard Certified for marinas/club to use for hire...... As far as the Center Console model, I believe they were Custom order boats with boarding ladders (optional) , which makes your theory " Correct " .....  I will post up pictures of both Models with descpritions !

Joe – you said “Yacht Club Launch” has a (wooden) Shift Handle in it” – Actually that is the steering – Most small Launches have no “wheel” but steer using this gunnel “Tiller”. I’m sure there is a name for this “stick” – as well as a reason for this type of steering vs. a wheel – but don’t know (though I have my theorys). Maybe one of the members would enlighten us… As for the Fisherman coming with a side console – you might be correct - and the only difference is the wheel steering and the transome sail/mast. I just assumed the Fisherman are CC's – which I suppose one should not do. Maybe Adam L. knows….As you noted the catalog states custom configurations available – I wonder what – if any – they did?
Title: Re: herreshoff 18'
Post by: Cardinal Joe on October 10, 2012, 04:52:29 PM
Yes - I hope Adam L or a owner of a Bay fisherman or Yacht Club Launch could clear this matter up for us ?   I'm not sure by looking at a BF model vs YC model if I could tell the Model ? Yes the BF model came with a " Dodger Cover " , but that could have been an Option on the YC model too.

Now the above foto of the so called Bay Fisherman also has a added (teak) top side rail , was this standard on the BF model ?  I have not seen a actual foto of the transom day sail/mast unit on a BF model ,as show in the orginal Herreshoff Brochure ....

James Reid - Herreshoff Scout Owner
 
jjreid2693@aol.com

Joe, it's a while since I've written.  Once again I'm asking for your help and thoughts.
 
I've been thinking about trying to get the masts that fold so I can trailer the Herreshoff Scout that I own.  Has any one ever done this that you know of, especially since she's a ketch rig?  Do you have a lead for me as to who could do this for me correctly?
 
Finally I'm thinking about getting new sails for the boat and once again I'm concerned about the measurements.  I could just measure the set I have but I have no way of knowing that they are indeed the correct measurements as per designer specifics.  Thoughts????
 
Thanks for your help as always.

Came in at St. Augustine inlet at 7:00 am Wed,,,,,.Dock at The City Docks obtain some fuel and had lunch in town , when head down the Inter- Coastal Waterway (ICW) ,,,,,,, " Sandy " had started to build up out at sea , so i decided to take the ICW  to the Miami River. On friday afternoon  I passed the Fort Lauderdale Boat Show , the winds were 40 plus MPH and the seas were 20 plus feet inshore .  I had a great trip until I started to cross the Biscayne Bay - it was a complete white out , winds of 50 + and rain blowing sideways . I could see the channel marks on Radar & GPS , but couldn,t see them visually as i passed them . Had to go up the Miami River in the dark , that was no fun , too many bridge openning and boats being rafted off other dock boats . Reached Richard Bertram facilty dock at 9;30 pm end of trip !

I can't put into words the damage that " Sandy " has done , we had a direct hit from the eye of the storm 95+ MPH !  I'm 8 miles South of Atlantic City !  :o  "Sandy " came ashore 5 miles south of AC ......

I'm very worried about " Pug Tug " in Tuckerton , NJ with Winds at 88 MPH > Dave , got her out of the water and parked her on high ground on the Island. He was NOT allowed back on the Island to check on her ! Maybe tomorrow ? I can tell you that LBI, Beach Haven and Tuckerton have " unbelievable devastation "..........

It could have been alot worst , it was schedule to come ashore at high tide with a full moon , but "Sandy"  pick up speed from 12 kts to 28 kts and hit at mid-tide........ but there was alot of water being kept in the bays because of the winds days before "Sandy" arrived in NJ !

All the Navigable Inlets in NJ....... will need the Navigation Buoys Re-position in the newly created channels , some Inlet may not be navigable channel or become "Local Knowledge Inlets "...........

PS - Dave may not be able to check on the " Pug Tug" tomorrow !      A travel ban remains in effect, and access to the barrier islands is cut-off by sheriff's officers........

Talked to Dave ,this morning, he stated that the Batteries were still pumping rain water, has he towed it back to his driveway .....  he also stated that the " Pug tug " was plugged in at the marina so, the batteries were fully charged !
The only other damage that he could see was the transom corner of the teak toe rail , which could be sanded ! You can see the damage in the picture .....

There still is NO power on the island of Tuckerton , and a Noreaster is coming on Wed. of this week .....  I have Dave a Winter Cover for the Pilot , which he has now installed , the batteries are weak and with No power to charge them , this cover will kept out the rain water from entering the boat !
Remember there is NO Drain Plug or self bailing holes in this Cat Hull ....

No power, for 10 days now. Plus 4 inches of snow. I just shoveled Little Toot out. Did not want the snow load to take her under.

We lost everything in the garage and all the insulation under the house. There are plies of lumber from the Barrier Island washed here. Tons and tons of broken houses and broken dreams.

The second owner of this 1974 Herreshoff Harbor Pilot - Hull # 41 was " Harrah's Marina hotel/casino."...... And Quess what she operated as under Harrah's ?

1978
The board of directors of Holiday Inns, Inc. of Memphis, Tennessee, approves proposal to build and operate a hotel/casino in the marina area of Atlantic City, New Jersey.

February 1980
Holiday Inns, Inc. acquires Harrah's hotel casino company. Holiday Inn at the time has 1,600 hotels and interests in two casinos: a casino under construction in the marina district in Atlantic City, New Jersey, and a 40 percent ownership interest in River Boat Casino, Inc., a casino adjacent to the Holiday Inn hotel on the Las Vegas strip.

November 1980

My Herreshoff 18' came from  M&W Boatworks in AC, NJ. She previously worked as a water taxi for Harrah's Casino, ferrying tourists between Gardiner's Basin, Trump Marina & Harrah's in the AC inlet, early 1980's.
Her previous owner was Charles Jury, a boatbuilder who lived on a houseboat in AC inlet.
The boat is named "My Buddy" in memory of my dad, John VanDuyne, builder, inventor, VanDuyne Lifeguard Boat, who passed away in April 1997. I saw the boat in Soundings Mag., she had all the qualities my dad taught me were important in a workboat, straight stem, round stern, deisel engine,big rudder.
It just made me think of him so much.
I have all original parts, the sail says water taxi. I took the mast off to go under the Dorset Ave. bridge at high tide.
She's a great flounder fishing boat! All good.

Restoring the Shine to Fiberglass

By Don Casey

Revised by BoatUS editors in April 2012


The outer surface of a fiberglass boat is normally a special resin called gelcoat. Gelcoat has little structural value--the underlying laminates of resin-saturated glass fabric provide that--but gelcoat protects the hull and gives it its color and shine.

When the gelcoat was originally sprayed into the hull mold, it--like all gels--took on the shape and texture of the mold surface. The ultra high gloss most new boats exhibit is due entirely to the highly polished, mirror-like surface of the mold used in the original construction of the boat.

Time and exposure eventually erode the relatively soft surface of gelcoat, leaving it dull and chalky. Fortunately, the gloss usually can be restored.
---- MAYBE ??????
Title: Re: herreshoff 18'
Post by: Cardinal Joe on November 29, 2012, 05:13:09 AM
Cleaning

The first step in restoring the gloss to dull gelcoat is always a thorough cleaning. Add a cup of detergent to a gallon of water--warm water is better--and use a sponge to wash the surface with this solution. Be sure to protect your hands with rubber gloves.

If mildew is present, add a cup of household bleach to your cleaning solution. Difficult stains like fish blood and waterline scum may require the direct application of a concentrated cleaner formulated for fiberglass. Rinse the clean surface thoroughly and let it dry

Cardinal Joe! Here are the pics I took of my America 18' before and after I converted her from sailboat to power launch. I forgot to show you these pics a couple of years ago when I did this work.

She was beat up for years and left out to rot. I removed the cabin top, bulkheads, centerboard trunk and cockpit seats. I also dropped the cockpit sole down to the cabin sole height. I left the interior liner with the forward benches and the table starboard. I then framed out the boat floors and forward benches to raise the seating in the bow for leg room.

I used Trexx decking for the flooring and seating because I was prototyping the layout  I had to add weight to make up for the material I removed.

The boat has been powered up until now with a small outboard in the well.

These are all pics Pre- Sandy.  Lola sank in the huricane and was torn apart by good samaritans after the storm.The next time I post it will be this project all over again-this time as a deisel powered Bay fisherman done properly as I have seen in the pics on this site. Thanks for getting all those shots together and I'll keep everyone updated as I go along. You can contact me at Keytimekev@gmail.com if you have specific questions or comments about the old conversion or the new rebuild. Further contact info is available at www.barnegatbayboatrepair.com

Lola is the only fiberglass boat out of the 6 I own, but it has all the qualities I look for in a proper boat.

Now I can't find a way to post the pics I've uploaded to flickr and I have to get to the shop so I'll get back on this tonight. I still have to download the post hurricane ducktaping and re-launching photos and get the video of the rescue fiasco to youtube.

BTW the boat survived the hurricane but couldn't take the 6 hour effort to get her raised by some misguided people at the Toms River Yacht Club.

Thanks for the info Joe! Now that the top is off I can flip it upside down, form and build up the seat back around the front of the cabin and get to the inner liner with ease. I'll have to lay engine stringers, fill in the well, build up the transom like I've seen in the photos of  the Bay Fisherman and go the diesel route. Thanks for all the detailed pics you've posted and if I find any others, I'll post them here as well.

Forgot to mention that the hull is registered as a 1970. There were no numbers on it other than the HIN plate Motor Vehicles stuck on the transom. The name boards that were on the cabin sides originally had Katrina routed in on the back side with blue paint in the letters, but the boards were reversed and Lola was the name when I got her.

Degreasing

Keeping gelcoat coated with wax, starting when the boat is new, is the best way to prolong its life. Regularly waxed gelcoat can retain its gloss for 15 years or more. The real purpose of a coat of wax is to protect, but wax also has restorative properties if the gelcoat is not too badly weathered.

Application instructions vary among brands, but in general you apply the wax with a cloth or foam pad using a circular motion. Let the wax dry to a haze, then buff away the excess with a soft cloth, such as an old bath towel. The remaining wax fills microscopic pitting in the gelcoat and provides a new, smooth, reflective surface.

Polishing

Polish is not a coating, but rather an abrasive--like extremely fine sandpaper. Polishing removes the pitted surface rather than coating it. Use a soft cloth to apply polish to a small area at a time, rubbing with a circular motion until the surface becomes glassy. After polishing, you should apply a coat of wax to protect the surface and improve the gloss. Some polish products include wax in their formulations.

Post by: Cardinal Joe on December 06, 2012, 07:18:43 AM
Using Rubbing Compound

If the gelcoat is weathered so badly that polish fails to restore its shine, you will need the stronger abrasives rubbing compound contains. Wax on the surface can cause the compound to cut unevenly, so first remove all wax by "sweeping" the surface in one direction--not back and forth--with rags saturated with dewax solvent or toluene.

Select a rubbing compound formulated for fiberglass and use it exactly like polish, rubbing it with a circular motion until the surface turns glassy. The gelcoat on your boat is about 10 times as thick as the paint on your car, so compound shouldn't cut all the way through it as long as you are careful not to rub in one place too long. If the gelcoat starts to look transparent, stop.
After the surface has been compounded, polish it, then coat it with wax and buff it. Providing the gelcoat has an adequate thickness--your boat might have been compounded previously--this process will restore the shine to fiberglass in almost any condition

Do You Need an Electric Buffer?

You can wax, polish, and compound by hand, but on anything but the smallest boat, your arm is going to get very tired. An electric buffer takes much of the work out of keeping a boat shining and is less expensive and less painful than elbow replacement.

Electric buffers operate at relatively slow speeds, so don't try to "make do" with a polishing bonnet fitted to a disk sander or a sanding pad chucked into a drill. You will either ruin the surface or ruin the tool. A buffer with an orbital motion will leave fewer swirl marks

Restorer

In recent years a number of products have come on the market that claim to restore the surface of the gelcoat. Restorer formulations renew the gloss in essentially the same way as wax--by providing a new smooth surface--but without the need for buffing. Results can be dramatic, but because restorers are a plastic (acrylic) coating--similar to urethane varnish--they can wear off, flake off, and occasionally discolor. Restorer kits typically include a prep wash and sometimes a polish in addition to the restorer. A specialized stripper for removing old sealer is also necessary.

There are variations in the recommended application, but in general it is the same as already described--clean, polish, and coat. The acrylic sealer is usually water-thin, so applying it to the hull is much easier than, say, paste wax. And it dries to hard film, so no buffing is needed. However you do have to apply several coats--five is typical--to get a good shine. If the product you have selected doesn't include an applicator, use a sponge or a soft cloth to wipe the sealer onto the gelcoat. Drying times are short, so subsequent coats can generally be applied almost immediately.

A multicoat application can restore the shine to weathered gelcoat for up to a year, but when it is time to renew it, you will need to remove the old sealer using the special stripper supplied in the kit (or available separately). Apply five fresh coats of sealer and your boat should shine for another year.  Maybe ??????

A discovery has been made in the Herreshoff Harbor Pilot Hull ,  Dave from the "Pug Tug" has discovered a drain hole in the hull..... Yes, I should've known about this and I believe at one time I did...... when I remove the engine from the pilot.......,the reason that I didn't remember this drain plug, when talking to Dave before " Sandy "... is I was picturing the bottom of the hull. after I had soda blasted,,,,, there was no hole on the bottom of the hull ,it wasn't protected by a bronze clam shell .   Dave made the discovery when he was reaching down to clear some leaves out as he winterize the boat......  he discovered a long Bronze T handle drain plug....  using vice grips it came undone ..... he heard the water coming out , and immediately jumped off the boat, to see where the water was draining out of the hull....  it was coming out of a small  hole in the bottom of the keel itself..... that's why I didn't see a brass drain fitting ....  I do have a picture with the engine removed and looking into the engine compartment I can see the drain plug handle in the second cross stringer ,the drain plug is directly in the middle of the boat, behind the transmission !

Post by: launchmaker on December 28, 2012, 04:32:04 PM
Joe,

I usually put a couple of dozen hours a year on the boat cruising the Toms River. I don't take it out of the water so I can use it year round. It had an outboard on a bracket when the boat was a sailboat. I re-opened the motor well in the back and had a 5 hp Tohatsu short shaft engine in there. It spun 360*making the boat extremely maneuverable like the Duffy electric boat with a Z drive.The boat made around 7 knots max hull speed in forward or reverse before the transom would start to squat down and water would start sloshing though the outboard well. Last year I replaced the engine with a 10 hp Johnson to see if it would make the boat perform any better. It was no better. The hull speed was the same, but I lost the ability to maneuver the boat the same as with the Tohatsu because engines over 5 hp don't rotate more than about 45*in either direction.

This year I didn't use the boat more than a couple of times because I opened a boat repair shop and started buying vintage and antique Chris Craft mahogany runabouts to restore. Then in May I got the opportunity to purchase a 32' 1950 Morton Johnson boat called Black Tom. After stripping and repainting the hull and bottom, installing hydraulic steering and rehabbing the two Chrysler Crown motors, I found it easier to get the wife and two little kids to go for a boat ride on that boat.

The Herreschoff  is going to take a little time to restore now that the locals here at the Jersey shore are getting their insurance claims going for their boats. It seems like everyone with a Boston Whaler had them wash up into a marsh somewhere and want their boat in the water ready for action May 1st.

I uploaded a couple more shots of Lola and Black Tom to the flickr photo stream and may go take another pic of her today, half full of water at the TRYC and not hurting one bit.

Hi Joe,

I found the pics on the forum.  Thanks for the heads-up.

That mast looks as though it was never set up for a steadying sail.  It appears to be mounted on the cabin roof and serves only as an anchor light mast.  Was that an option from the builder?

Thanks.

Obviously its a Custom short mast without a Boom built for the Pilot by the Builder.....

Title: Re: herreshoff 18'
Post by: launchmaker on January 20, 2013, 09:47:37 PM
There was no hull # or any markings on it other than a NJ HIN plate attached to he transom. I thought it was a 74 but when I got the title from the state it was titled as a 1970. It had a pretty rough gel coated cabin top so I think it may be an early hull.

I'm taking the interior liner out this week now that it is down at my shop and the deck is off. The seam along the flange is easy to access with a Dremel multi-tool. When it's out, I'll look for any old plates or IDs that may have wedged in the liner over the years. I found some old 70's stuff when I was retrofitting it, but no builder plate.

I have a 1984 Squadron Yacht Harbor Pilot that is slowly being fixed up. I have cleaned and climbed all around the boat and have never found a brass plate. Where is it located? Was it an option on some models? The boat has traveled from Cape Cod to Texas to Alabama over the years maybe it was removed.

Attached are some pictures with the aluminum top, I do not have any canvas for it ( it is still a work in progress). It was just too hot to use the boat in the summer without some kind of shade. I don’t know how much of a project you are looking for. The boatis a 1984 pilot it has a 2 cylinder Yanmar. The hull is sound and the engine run good, trailer is galvinized with good tires. I never had the mast and boom for the boat.

Post by: launchmaker on March 04, 2013, 04:14:01 PM
To set the record straight on canopies and bimini tops I refer you to any picture of a steam launch, a bow rider or a chesapeake deadrise workboat. Any of these would have a lightweight aluminum frame or a lightweight douglas fir frame. The weight is usually under 50 pounds. The canvas covering weighs about 10 pounds.

My boat Lola as an America Cat had a 75 pound aluminum mast standing 25' plus into the air. When the 20 pound sail is set the material is vertical to the wind and creates the windage that allows for laminar flow of air and forward motion of the boat.

In contrast, the horizontal application of a canopy top is in line with the wind direction( which is also horizontal most of the time). I have read posts where people express concern that a good breeze could flip a powerboat or lift it into the air. When you are on a boat with any type of canopy, you do not consider that the top might be unbalanced because you realize you are in a boat that weighs a couple of thousand pounds and that the center of effort is below the waterline and that stability is not really affected in the least.

My goal with Lola before she was turned into a project boat by Sandy was an open launch with canopy top. It was to have an aluminum frame with the striped surrey top like the launches of the 19th century. I didn't invent the idea, I got the idea after seeing a beautiful Herreshoff electric launch a few years back.

Now that I'm rebuilding Lola in my shop, upside down with the deck off and the liner removed. The layout and drive system are going to be unique to the hull type and will be installing a surrey top with douglas fir frames and bronze flanges and fittings. It will look more traditional than the boat above, but will be no more  dangerous or top heavy than any boat with a top that you se on the water any day of the week.

As far as being top heavy and having a lot of windage that can adversely affect navigation, I refer you to the photo's Joe has posted of a blue launch with a full cabin enclosure. I believe a boat like that has lost a good deal of initial stability with the height of the cabin and had increased the windage to the point of being difficult to operate in any decent cross wind. Is the boat pretty? yes. Is it stable? I don't think so.

Title: Re: herreshoff 18'
Post by: Irv Mac Dowell on March 04, 2013, 08:10:47 PM
It seems to me that the whole idea of a steadying sail on boats like these is to fill alternately one side and then the other to dampen snap rolling in a beam sea.  Canopies that are in line with the cabin top, or "horizontal" as noted above have no such function.  Round bilge boats like the Pilot tend to roll in a rather gentle motion, though some may find such motion sickening after a while.  My concern, especially with the boat above, is that the aluminum structure appears to be very heavy.  Any rolling would seem to be exacerbated in a beam sea because of that weight.  I also wonder about that single point attachment to the covering boards.  That location will be getting a very large amount of forward and aft movement in the normal use of the boat.  That area would be very prone to failure, it seems to me.

I think the best solution for most users would be a Bimini top as shown folded in one of Joe's pictures.  Simple to deploy and furl, and very light in weight.

Best regards,

Irv

Title: Re: herreshoff 18'
Post by: launchmaker on March 05, 2013, 06:54:37 AM
The job of a steadying sail is to keep the boat heeled slightly over to leeward like a sailboat when the wind is blowing and the sea is rolling. Without getting into a discussion on how sailboats and sails work, the sail doesn't flop from side to side, rather the wind keeps hitting it from basically one side or the other, depending on wether the wind is on the port or starboard side of the boat  The mast and sail are very small so they don't overpower the boat as it's motoring along as a motorsailer and serve to keep the boat heeled to one side to a manageable degree since you can let the sail out or take it in to get the necessary benefit and reduce rolling.
 
As far as the horizontal canopy, it is there to provide shade and protection from rain. These canopies have been used for thousands of years, at least. If they performed as you are thinking presently, then the owners of the above boats would have removed them before they sank their boats. Correct? The frame is very light in respect to the boat it is covering and has no negative affect on the performance of the vessel in any way. In all my 40+years of boating, I have never seen any instance of a canopy doing anything other than offering protection from the sun or rain. Even with side curtains of clear vinyl installed, I have never seen or heard of a boat flipping, capsizing, etc.

You may have the idea of the canopy as the Brontosaurus steak the waitress put on Fred Flintstone's car at the beginning of the Flintstone's. That 200 lb. steak couldn't have displaced the car with stone tires and all those people. Think more of a canopy mounted to the basket of a tour elephant in India. The wind can blow, the elephant will keep right on walking.

The canopy stanchions in the photo are first mounted to flanges on the cockpit sole as well as the inboard side of the coaming. That eliminates any fore and aft movement of the superstructure, which is very little on this hull type. These hulls cut the water with their narrow, plumb bow cutting the water just below the turn of the stem, bow up, and keep a sharp v angle for 4 or 5 feet before bellying out to almost 8 feet at the beam waterline and leaving off at over 4 feet at the transom. That makes for a boat that doesn't pitch back and forth over it's beam(unless it's an America cat motoring into a heavy chop, the weight of the mast aloft gets a bit of pitch going).

If you want to see some classic canopy tops for boats, you can google search surrey tops or steam launches and click on the images icon near the top and it should display countless boats and their tops. Duffy boats has boats of this length and have both canopy tops as well as full cabin enclosures.

If you go with a Bimini top, they are lightweight, retract easily and are readily available from retail marine stores. How can you go wrong with that, Irv???
Title: Re: herreshoff 18'
Post by: Irv Mac Dowell on March 05, 2013, 03:46:33 PM
With respect, I noted that a Bimini top would be very useful and entirely appropriate.  Too, the full enclosures shown in subsequent pictures (Is that a Pilot?), seem fine, and would not affect the boat's safety or operation.  I would not take a boat so equipped into any kind of sea, but for placid river cruises in wind and rain, it would be fine.  I must respectfully disagree slightly on your assessment of a steadying sail. Often, on offshore deliveries of sailboats up to 70 feet, we have left the main fully deployed in rolling seas, but with no wind.  As the boat rolls, the sail fills and dumps air, thus slowing the roll to a manageable and comfortable degree. It can be noisy,as it flops about,  but the sail eases the motion.  Even on my 20 foot Caledonia Yawl, the mizzen and main slow the roll somewhat when motoring in a beam sea with no wind. 

My original concern had to do with the arrangement on Harborlite, as shown in Joe's posting.  That looks to be a very heavy frame built of square aluminum that is anchored at only one point on the washboard on each side.  I would be very concerned about that single-point arrangement working loose in a sea and tearing the washboard out, and even causing injury to passengers, should it fall without warning.  My experience in tuna towers in a beam sea, while much higher and in heavier rolling, suggests to me that the torsional forces at work can be extreme. I wonder if such forces, while certainly less extreme, might doom that apparatus to failure.

Best regards,

Irv

Post by: Adam on March 05, 2013, 04:48:36 PM
I'd have to agree with Mr. MacDowell..... I have spent many a day and night on my Albemarle in strong winds and heavy seas and can attest to the amount of "sailing" she would do with the heavy hardtop and full curtains and the engine off. Even docking can be a challenge with this set-up if the winds are from the wrong direction....In the North East - where these Novi/Catboat type hulls are prevalent - the conditions match these hulls very nicely.... One you start adding canvas and hardtops I think they become compromised somewhat and you begin relegating them to the sheltered areas.  And if that is your location conditions – then it’s fine. Before I would add any large hardtop/canvas type set-up I’d ask the original designer what he/she thinks – in this case a call to Herreshoff Designs would probably give peace of mind for a project of this sort...
Title: Re: herreshoff 18'
Post by: launchmaker on March 06, 2013, 06:02:12 AM
I don't think I saw the photo of Harbor Light,  now I know exactly why you are saying that rig is heavy, poorly designed, etc. My sincere apology. I think the Brontosaurus steak would definitely take that one down. As far as the steadying sail, I have only seen them used underway in a breeze. I don't personally leave sails up to reduce rolling since I race sailboats in sheltered waters and the condition of the sails are most important. We try to keep the sails from flapping or flopping as much as possible to keep the resins that bind the weave together from breaking, so the shape of the sail doesn't blow out.

If I had a cruiser I might just leave the main up. Does the boom have to swing from side to side to help counter the roll or if the sail does most of the work can you keep the boom hauled to one side?
Title: Re: herreshoff 18'
Post by: Irv Mac Dowell on March 06, 2013, 03:41:02 PM
In a moderate sea, and very light winds, under power, the main is kept 'midships and the downhaul tight.  With some wind, motor sailing, the traveler might be moved slightly outward.  These are very heavily-built cruising sails, so potential damage is minimal to non existent.

Title: Re: herreshoff 18'
Post by: launchmaker on March 07, 2013, 04:44:47 AM
Good answer, Irv. You know what you are talking about. Now I do too.

The boats with the canopy tops are definitely inshore cruisers.

Adam, I don't want to sink my boat with a canopy this time, so I'll take your advice and call Hereeshoff Designs. They might tell me to keep it low and open like it's been in the past. I just wish I hadn't sold the mast, the swing from that pole offset the waves nicely. I never needed the sail set when motoring.

Launch,

Thanks for the kind words.  The folks who built my Caledonia Yawl outside of Seattle, Grapeview Point Boatworks, have on their website a picture of the Nelson Zimmer launch that Tom and Susanne built a couple of years ago.  I was aboard her last winter when I flew out to arrange final details on my build.  Tom built her as an electric, and originally she was an all open boat.  Because Seattle is temperate, though very wet in winter, Tom added an all around enclosure built of wood and plexiglass for winter and spring use.  If you go to their website, grapeviewpointboatworks.com, you can see pictures of the boat with its enclosure and without.

Best regards,

I've had their web site saved as a favorite for years now. Your Caledonia Yawl is also one of the best looking designs going. The Zimmer was one  of the inspirations for converting my sailboat hull to power launch. Then I came across this website thanks to Cardinal Joe posting tons of great info about the Harbor Pilot.

Good luck in the search for a Pilot, the hull is great

I just purchased an H-18 locally and will pick up the boat next week.  Very thrilled with the boat.  Needs restored, will be my retirement project when I retire.  Information on the boat is not readily available, so thought you might be able to send me in the correct direction with your knowledge:
 
Is any one making spare parts for the boat.  Found 1 E-mail that said that someone had purchased the molds but did not provide the new owners name.  I did locate the OEM sail maker.
 
Do you have any idea who may have supplied the navigation lanterns as seen on the brochure  and also one of the boats in the pictures.  Would be a really nice addition to the boat.
 
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

The molds for the America are owned by Com-PAC yachts. It was used to make their  (highly modified) "Horizon cat". My understanding is they are in very bad shape and could not be used again. There is a fairly large support community for the America and things like templates for rudder and centerboard are readily available. Marshall Marine (Marshall Cats) has been known to support some custom items like Masts and rigging as well. And don't forget the original designer - Herreshoff Designs.

Do the Math on OLIVE OYL > FIRM Price of $6000.00 - $2000.00 (Trailer) = $ 4000.00 for a Herreshoff Harbor Pilot with a Diesel engine that is in Excellent Running Condition !!!! WOW........  Yes , she needs a little TLC on the Wood Work and I felt one little soft spot on the deck floor , that will need attn. in the furture , but that was it , Its basically a " Turn Key Boat " ........

to me

I just came across an old Herreshoff Forum and I think you are, or was, the owner of that beautiful 18' Pilot.  I have one that I think is a Fisherman or a Pilot that someone modified.  It is called Cup Cake.  I have attached a photo and I would be happy to send you more and include my story if you would like.

Hi Joe,

Yes, a center console.  I wouldn't be surprised if it wasn't a Pilot as there is evidence of fiberglass repair on the port side.  I have attached a few photos and will send a few more in a separate email.

I bought the boat in Erie, PA about 10 years ago and dragged it to Boston.  I used for a couple of seasons and put it in storage for quite a while.  In the past couple of years I replaced the engine beds, replaced the 40hp Gray with a newer 25hp Gray.  I sent the 25hp to Van Ness Engineering to be rebuilt.  New canvass and rebuilt the rudder recently.  The cushions are original and in great shape.  Next, I'd like to put a little diesel in it.  I hate to think how much $$ I have into Cup Cake that I know I will never get back.

Was yours redone in Annapolis?  Do you still have it?  Happy Easter.

Jerry

Herreshoff Harbor Pilot 18 | $12,500

This is a very rare boat, built in the Nowak and Williams's yard in Bristol, Rhode Island in the early 1970's. It is a perfect gentleman's launch/picnic boat for cocktail cruises on your favorite lake or river. The huge cockpit easily seats 6 people.

Joe,

I saw on the web site a photo of a Harbor Pilot with the fuel tank mounted under the seat in the stern.

Do you have any other information about this installation?

Thanks,

In a moderate sea, and very led lighting (http://www.niceledlights.com) winds, under power, the main is kept 'midships and the downhaul tight.  With some wind, motor sailing, the traveler might be moved slightly outward.  These are very heavily-built cruising sails, so potential damage is minimal to non existent.

You have right.. These sails are nicely built and even I own one of the sailing boats.. Will share pics next time

Well , back on vacation again , heading to Key West for the month of Feb. with my buddy Dave and "!The Pug Tug " ( was my Pilot that I Sold to Dave ) . Departed from Tuckerton , New Jersey trailer the Pilot 775 miles before the trailer , blew a bearing & hub , tried to ride on three wheels and another bearing & hub when , called a flatbed Tow Truck in the town of Santee , SC . Had the Herreshoff Harbor Pilot towed to this town which remind me of Mayberry RFD on TV .  Found a mechanic shop to put on 4 bearings & 4 new Hubs, I was on the road again after $1000.00 bucks in repairs  . An about a mile road blew a tire out , here riding on three wheels caused the one front axle to bend up  to rub against the wheelwell and blowout ,no one at the repair shop notice that the wheel was not align properly with the other three wheels ?
The pub tug and the trailer are now being flatbed to Charleston ,South Carolina to purchase a new trailer  $2875.00 !  Well Dave and I are in Key West waiting for the pug tug to be flatbed from the Hicktown of Mayberry RFD to Charleston It will take a couple days to outfit the trailer and then have it delivered to the keys , I still have to get a price on transport but it's 15 hours one way and I'm not doing it !

As this thread seems to be the main discussion point for the Harbor Pilots, I thought I would take a moment to introduce mine.  I have a red ?1978 Harbor Pilot which has lived its life within a ten mile radius of its birthplace in Bristol RI.  Based on the hull ID and builder's plate, it appears to have been built by Tillotson Pearson (hull) and finished at Squadron Yachts in Bristol RI.  Not far from Halsey Herreshoff's office and home.

I am the fourth owner.  It was originally (I am told) used by the harbor master in Newport.  The next owner repowered with a Yanmar 3GM30F (now with almost 500hrs) and replaced and moved the fuel tank.  The third owner was a neighbor who used it a few years and then upgraded to a small lobster yacht.  I acquired the boat after selling a 36ft sailboat and intended to use it to cruise around Narragansett Bay.  I did exactly that for a couple of years then got the hankering for a sailboat again and therefore this fine vessel has been on the hard under a tarp behind my barn for the past six or seven years. 

The Pilot is a very stout little ship and has zero problems with the afternoon chop in a 20 knot breeze.  It is cat boat beamy so very stable as well.  Not sure how much difference the riding sail makes to stability but it sure looks salty when rigged.  My cruising is done mostly at six knots or so.  I know the engine is about twice the horsepower of the original powerplant (actually the same motor as on my former 36ft sailboat) but this is a displacement vessel so it really doesn't make much sense to try to push the boat at much more than six knots which it does easily at about 1500rpm in flat water as I recall. 

I've pondered selling it for the past few years as I just haven't the time for two boats but have also just acquired a second mooring in a very convenient spot so will try to get it launched and see if it gets used more than before.  I've started to recommission the boat starting with a thorough cleaning of the fuel tank and replacement of all filters, fluids, belts, coolant hoses, batteries, water pump impeller, zincs and lubricating or replacing engine control cables.  Then comes a new bilge pump.  I anticipate giving her a fresh coat of red interlux after attending to accumulated minor dings.  The old depth meter doesn't work and is no longer made.  Might replace it but a depth meter here in RI with mostly sandy bottoms and an 18" draft is not critical so that task may be postponed.  Other than cleaning up the cabin I doubt I will have time this year to fancy up the woodwork and I am not one who really likes to fuss over perfect varnish anyways so I'll leave the weathered teak alone.  I only use the trailer to move the boat a mile to the launch pad but that also needs a bit of TLC and new brakes.  Projects, projects, projects....

I'll try to link some photos in Flickr.

“Integrity” is for Sale ...... :)

Hi Cardinal Joe,
 
I’m the guy that posted the “Integrity” story with the registry, November 16, 2011.  I had several communications with you where you helped me with my posting.
 
The “Integrity” story was about finding her after 25 years and bringing her back home to Michigan for a restoration project when I retired.
 
Well today, eight years after she was found, she is finished and now I am selling her once again to buy a larger sailboat.  She has never been launched and proudly awaits her next owner.
 
I have attached a complete story of her for your viewing.  Could I ask you for some guidance in finding her a new home?  Because of the museum restoration and her purchase price, it will take that special person who wants something different, a one-of-a-kind vessel, a signature boat of the harbor.
 
Any help would be appreciated.
 
Thank you…

HERRESHOFF’S BRONZE 3-PIECE

FOLDING STOCK ANCHORS

(http://i1219.photobucket.com/albums/dd432/jcannavo/Herreshoff%20Harbor%20pilot/image002_zpsoyiywdut.gif)

Licensed by the Hart Nautical Collections at M.I.T. ~ Authorized by the Herreshoff Marine Museum 
After centuries of evolution, culminating with the Herreshoffs’ refinements, “The genuine Herreshoff anchor is a truly wonderful creation and has yet to be improved upon for all-around use.”* We manufacture them in high strength bronze (equal in strength to cast iron) and have added one more innovation; the stock is secured by threading it into the shank for easy, fast, neat and secure setup with no loose parts. (7½ & 21 lb. Anchors)
Perfected by Nat Herreshoff over many years, these anchors have been widely copied, but never duplicated from Herreshoff drawings until now. The 7½ pounder was standard equipment on the famous 12½s, and on Captain Nat’s personal boat Alerion III. They are ideal for small boats because they are dependable, light, easily handled, fold flat for storage, can be carried near the compass without affecting it, and they will not stain your belongings because they do not rust.
The versatility of these anchors is unparalleled. They will hold equally well in weeds, sand, mud, or rocky bottoms and unlike most modern anchors, do not bring up huge clumps of mud and weeds, and are easily cleaned. Because these anchors don’t need heavy, messy and hard to handle chain to get them to set, they are much less likely to damage your hands and topsides when brought aboard and if the weight of the chain needed by others is considered, ours equals their holding power pound for pound, are more easily stowed and, of course, much more aesthetically pleasing. Our 17lb. anchor, recently tested in Practical Sailor’s, Jan./01 Anchor Reset Tests, ranked 8th out of 17 for Holding Power (pound-for-pound) in sand, beating both the CQR & Bruce, and 6th in Setting. (More testing to come.)  No wonder these anchors have continued to be popular!
* Maynard Bray and Carlton Pinheiro, Herreshoff of Bristol, Brooklin, ME; WoodenBoat Publications, 1989
7½ lb.    Length 25” x 16” width x 2½” palm width  (Above)    $295 + $17.00 shipping (USA)
12 lb.       Coming Soon
17 lb.     Length 29” x 18½” width x 3 5/16” palm width    $425 + $24.00 shipping (USA)

What you don't see in the picture below, is that when the Herreshoff 18 ( Tug Pug ) was being towed up on to the flatbed the left front axle had to much weight on it from the boat & trailer which cause the axle support bar to bend ! No one notices ,so after having 4 of the Axles Hub"s and Wheel Bearing replaced . On the first trip out on Interstate I-95 a half a mile down the highway , we lost a wheel on one of the new axles hub bearing that we just replace , had to be towed back again by flatbed , we then realize that the front left axle support bar was bent and could NOT be repaired after a professional welder had inspected the trailer ( because of were it had bent on the cross bars of the trailer ) . We had the boat & trailer flatbed to Charleston from Santee NC  ( 60 plus miles ) and purchased a brand new Venture bunk boat trailer from STEEL'S West Ashley Sales in Charleston>Boat Trailers , now it had to be custom fitted to the Herreshoff 18 with only a 150 lbs. of tongue weight on the towing ball hitch ! We all left Santee and continue to Key West and 3 days later the " Pug Tug" had arrival to the beginning of the Key's ( Key Largo ) were Dave met the delivery driver paid him and hooked up the new trailer & Herreshoff 18 to the Dodge Caravan and towed it to Key West !

Trailer



Joe,
   
    I got some pics of the trailer attached.  The trailer itself runs at $2195 and with tax it goes to $2381.57.  Since we will have to lift the boat, etc. there will be a little labor included.  With the labor it runs to $2531.57.  This would be your out the door price if you got the trailer as is.  The LED upgrade is $100 and the Bearing Buddies are $25.95.  So your total price if you wanted these is $2668.22.  We have 3 of them in stock here at the West Ashley store so getting them is no problem.  Let me know if you have any other questions.
