The Fishers Island One Design, sometimes referred to as the Fishers Island 24, is a quintessential American one-design sailboat renowned for its classic lines and lively performance. Designed by the esteemed naval architect Charles D. Mower and built by the prestigious Nevins Inc. shipyard, this wooden-hulled vessel emerged in the early 20th century as a dedicated racing platform for the waters off Fishers Island, New York. It quickly established a reputation as a small yet high-performing sailboat, embodying the meticulous craftsmanship for which its builder, Henry B. Nevins, Inc., was celebrated.
