The Dark Harbor 17 1/2 is a distinguished classic daysailer and racer, renowned for its elegant lines, spirited performance, and enduring appeal. Conceived in 1908 for the Manchester Yacht Club in Massachusetts, this keelboat quickly gained a reputation for its blend of speed and graceful handling, serving as both a competitive class racer and a delightful vessel for afternoon sails. Its design is officially credited to B.B. Crowninshield, though the actual plans were completed by R. N. Burbank, an employee of Crowninshield's firm at the time. Many of these beautifully crafted wooden boats, originally built by yards such as Rice Brothers and George Lawley & Son, continue to sail today, a testament to their robust construction and timeless design.
