The Beverly Dinghy is an American

rowboat, that was designed by A. Sidney DeWolf Herreshoff and first built in 1953. The boat can be employed as a yacht tender.[1][2][3][4][5]

Production

The design was built by Cape Cod Shipbuilding in the United States, starting in 1953. A total of 500 boats have been completed, but it is now out of production. The company has indicated that the molds are still available and that production could be restarted in response to a fleet order.[1][4][5][6][7]

Design

The Beverly Dinghy is a recreational

centerboard. The sailing version displaces 207 lb (94 kg), while the rowboat model displaces 142 lb (64 kg).[1][4]

The sailing version has a draft of 1.30 ft (0.40 m) with the centerboard extended and 3 in (7.6 cm) with it retracted, allowing operation in shallow water, beaching or ground transportation on a trailer.[1][4]

The design has two seats mounted across the beam.[5]
