The Pacific Dolphin 24 represents a refined, West Coast iteration of one of the most celebrated designs in the history of fiberglass pocket cruisers. Originally drawn in 1959 by William Shaw under the direction of Sparkman & Stephens (Design 1497), the Dolphin 24 was heavily inspired by the oceanracing triumph of Carlton Mitchell’s legendary S&Sdesigned yawl, Finisterre. While the vessel's production history spanned multiple builders on the East Coast, the molds eventually found their way to Southern California. From 1974 to 1978, Pacific Dolphin Inc. of Anaheim took over production using the tooling inherited from Yankee Yachts, building approximately 50 hulls that represented the final, most refined evolution of this classic design.
