The Herreshoff Buzzards Bay 14 is widely regarded as one of L. Francis Herreshoff’s most elegant contributions to the American daysailer tradition. Designed in the mid-1940s (specifically Design No. 58), the vessel was intended as a larger, faster, and more weatherly evolution of his father Nathanael Greene Herreshoff’s legendary "12 ½." While it shares a similar aesthetic language with the smaller boat—characterized by a graceful sheer, a raked transom, and a traditional full keel—the Buzzards Bay 14 is a distinct design. It features a 17' 9" length overall (LOA) and a 14' waterline, providing significantly more power and stability than its predecessor. Traditionally constructed in wood with cedar-over-oak framing and bronze fasteners, the design has transitioned into the modern era through high-end fiberglass and cold-molded iterations from boutique builders like Artisan Boatworks, who continue to produce the model for enthusiasts seeking classic lines without the maintenance burden of traditional plank-on-frame construction.
