Designed by the legendary Joel White in 1985, the Haven 12 1/2 is a masterpiece of adaptation, bringing the timeless lines of Nathanael G. Herreshoff’s original 12 1/2footer to the modern trailersailing era. While the original 1914 Herreshoff design utilized a deep full keel that made trailering difficult and restricted its use to deepwater harbors, the Haven version utilizes a clever centerboard configuration. By increasing the beam slightly and reengineering the lead ballast into a slotted keel, White achieved a boat that draws only 18 inches with the board up while maintaining the exact waterline length (12' 6") and displacement of its predecessor. Today, it stands as one of the most popular designs for advanced amateur builders and professional wooden boat yards alike, favored for its "big boat" feel in a compact 16foot LOA package.
