Hi Everyone,
I'm compiling a list of Herreshoff Meadowlarks and their location for the purpose of creating a Meadowlark owners
email group.
The Meadowlark was L.F. Herreshoff's design #88 and was penned in 1948. His design goal was to create a cruising length sailboat with the least possible
draft for sailing the waters of
Florida and the
Bahamas.
Over the years the Meadowlark was produced in many different versions, home-built and manufactured, and in many different materials,
wood,
fiberglass,
steel and
ferro cement.
The Meadowlark's original design was 33' and was to be constructed in
wood plank. The wooden version was featured in
Rudder and Wooden
Boat Magazine. A 37'
fiberglass version was manufactured, per order, in
Massachusetts in the 70's and early 80's, by Allan H. Vaitses.
If your a Meadowlark owner, or know of one, and you would like to help, please
email me at
geosite@webtv.net, or post a reply here.
Many thanks,
Geo
