The Marshall Sandpiper is a quintessential fiberglass catboat that distills the heritage of 19th-century New England workboats into a manageable, 15-foot, 6-inch package. Designed by Breck Marshall and manufactured by Marshall Marine Corporation in South Dartmouth, Massachusetts, the Sandpiper was introduced in 1972 as a smaller alternative to the iconic 18-foot Sanderling. Despite its modest length, the boat's design philosophy prioritizes maximum volume, stability, and ease of use, making it a staple of the shallow-water "gunkholing" tradition in areas like Buzzards Bay and Cape Cod. Built with a solid fiberglass hull and heavy-duty hardware, the Sandpiper is intended for sailors who want the aesthetic of a classic wooden catboat without the exhaustive maintenance requirements of traditional timber construction.
