Since I am a member of the Herreshoff Museum,  maybe I will get an opinion from them.

Not recognising these versions with Herreshoff builders plates sounds a bit "purist" to me

As I thought about your reply.... my question is...

 is my boat a Herreshoff or not?

I went to the Quincy Adams Shipbuilding history website and the boats built about 1944 are all listed as ALDEN ONE DESIGNS

I bought my boat thr Artisan Boatworks and it was advertised as a Herreshoff and my bill of sale calls it a Herreshoff.

So it is a Herreshoff?

Thanks

I just purchased a Herreshoff 12 from an owner is MA.

 The builders plate has number 2008, any idea what year she was built.

Her name is SKOOKUM.

How do I add her to the registry?
