dark harbor 17 sailboat

Dark Harbor 17 by BB Crowninshield

Like her smaller sister, a “Seventeen” is a pure sailing machine of great beauty, but she is enough larger to offer considerably more comfort through a larger cockpit well and a small cuddy cabin.  Low freeboard combined with a wide, self-bailing cockpit well that seats you “down in” the boat, put you very close to the water.  The lovely, slender hull lines, long ends, deep draft and large rig provide wonderfully sweet “feel” in this powerful, fast, wet, responsive and handy boat.

The beautiful round-front cabin trunk charmingly evokes the possibility of sleeping aboard, and indeed, some hardy souls have done extensive cruising in Seventeen’s. The cuddy is just big enough for two narrow berths, and has minimal headroom, but the cockpit well will sleep two people in fair comfort under a boom tent, if desired. Mostly the cuddy serves as storage space, shelter in a rain squall, and a bit of privacy when desired.

There are larger boats of similar character described elsewhere on our website, but a Seventeen is probably the smallest design that offers such a fine and elegant sailing experience. Seventeen’s are still raced in our area, and a test sail can usually be arranged during the season.

Dark Harbor 17 1/2

Dark Harbor 17 1/2 is a 25 ′ 9 ″ / 7.9 m monohull sailboat designed by B. B. Crowninshield and built by Rice Brothers and Lawley (George Lawley & Son) between 1908 and 1935.

Rig and Sails

Auxilary power, accomodations, calculations.

The theoretical maximum speed that a displacement hull can move efficiently through the water is determined by it's waterline length and displacement. It may be unable to reach this speed if the boat is underpowered or heavily loaded, though it may exceed this speed given enough power. Read more.

Classic hull speed formula:

Hull Speed = 1.34 x √LWL

Max Speed/Length ratio = 8.26 ÷ Displacement/Length ratio .311 Hull Speed = Max Speed/Length ratio x √LWL

Sail Area / Displacement Ratio

A measure of the power of the sails relative to the weight of the boat. The higher the number, the higher the performance, but the harder the boat will be to handle. This ratio is a "non-dimensional" value that facilitates comparisons between boats of different types and sizes. Read more.

SA/D = SA ÷ (D ÷ 64) 2/3

• SA : Sail area in square feet, derived by adding the mainsail area to 100% of the foretriangle area (the lateral area above the deck between the mast and the forestay).
• D : Displacement in pounds.

Ballast / Displacement Ratio

A measure of the stability of a boat's hull that suggests how well a monohull will stand up to its sails. The ballast displacement ratio indicates how much of the weight of a boat is placed for maximum stability against capsizing and is an indicator of stiffness and resistance to capsize.

Ballast / Displacement * 100

Displacement / Length Ratio

A measure of the weight of the boat relative to it's length at the waterline. The higher a boat’s D/L ratio, the more easily it will carry a load and the more comfortable its motion will be. The lower a boat's ratio is, the less power it takes to drive the boat to its nominal hull speed or beyond. Read more.

D/L = (D ÷ 2240) ÷ (0.01 x LWL)³

• D: Displacement of the boat in pounds.
• LWL: Waterline length in feet

Comfort Ratio

This ratio assess how quickly and abruptly a boat’s hull reacts to waves in a significant seaway, these being the elements of a boat’s motion most likely to cause seasickness. Read more.

Comfort ratio = D ÷ (.65 x (.7 LWL + .3 LOA) x Beam 1.33 )

• D: Displacement of the boat in pounds
• LOA: Length overall in feet
• Beam: Width of boat at the widest point in feet

Capsize Screening Formula

This formula attempts to indicate whether a given boat might be too wide and light to readily right itself after being overturned in extreme conditions. Read more.

CSV = Beam ÷ ³√(D / 64)

Originally designed for the Manchester Yacht Club in Mass. USA and called the MANCHESTER 17. The first 17 boats were built by Rice Bros. in 1908. As it’s popularity spread it aquired a number of the different names including the BAR HARBOR 17. A few of the original boats have been restored and can be seen sailing to this day. The actual plans for this yacht, as well as many others credited to Croninshield, were completed by R. N. Burbank, an employee of the firm at the time.

Particulars

Off center harbor's remarks.

Dark Harbor 17’s are still raced by Maine Coast Brahmins in some of poshest summer colonies on the coast. These are people who could race about anything and they have chosen to stick with the “Seventeens.” We think that says a lot about the quality of these boats.

Description from Boat's Main Listing

A Dark Harbor 17 is a pure sailing machine of great beauty; easily single-handed and offering comfort and safety with a small cuddy cabin and self-bailing cockpit. The lovely, slender shape, with long overhangs, deep draft and large rig provide a wonderfully sweet “feel” in this powerful, fast, responsive and handy boat.

The round-front oak cabin trunk forms a cozy interior that is just big enough for two narrow berths. Although headroom is minimal, the cockpit will sleep two in fair comfort under a boom tent. Mostly, the cuddy serves as storage space, shelter in a rain squall, and a bit of privacy if desired.

There are larger boats of similar character, but a “Seventeen” is probably the smallest design that offers such a fine and elegant sailing experience.

DASHAWAY has been well maintained over the years, and recently received a complete makeover that included stripping and refinishing all of her paint and varnish. The brightwork (including spars) received 10 coats of Epifanes varnish.

Her cockpit was removed to facilitate the replacement of sixteen frames; the interior was repainted; and an ingenious new teak clad footwell was installed with a hatch that can be raised for use as a table and upright seating.

DASHAWAY comes with Garmin ECHOmap chart plotter, depth sounder, solar panel, and a transom-mounted bronze outboard motor bracket. The tandem axle trailer and custom fitted cradle are available separately.

For daysailing, racing, and the occasional overnight, DASHAWAY would be the perfect craft to spark a lifelong passion for classic yachting.

B. B. Crowninshield perhaps does not come to mind today,  as easily as other American boat designers of his generation. However, he was well renowned and from the golden age of yachting in the USA. He was famous for his designs of day sailers and racing boats. The Dark Harbor is one of his most beautifully evocative creations, originally designed in 1908, and still popular in New England. A pure racing machine of great beauty with a very useful cuddy cabin. 

We now offer this very versatile yacht here in the UK. Intended primarily for coastal sails in the afternoon, and for racing when the mood takes you, these boats have often been used for coastal cruising, the low cabin trunk has room for two transom berths. It is a boat that will certainly turn heads and prompt admiring comments from on lookers.

The design has a roomy cockpit either as a self draining cockpit or a deeper cockpit with thwarts is possible for more more comfort while seated.

A Vintage Knockabout Design Finds New Life

The Camden Class,  designed in 1915 by B.B. Crowninshield, is a variation from a time when so-called knockabouts were all the rage. It could be argued that these and Crowninshield’s other elegant but simple dayboats represent the foundation of the one-design concept.

Only four of the Camden Class boats were built back in the day, and the design, which was intended as a racing fleet for the Camden Yacht Club, was supplanted at the club by the Haj boats. But the elegant design has had many admirers, including a man who started to build one on his own and has since handed the project off to Alec Brainerd’s Artisan Boatworks of Rockport, Maine.

The boat nearing completion in Brainerd’s shop was begun 15 years ago in Birmingham, Alabama. The builder, Dr. Marc Starer, had recently moved there from New England. “The people there were great, but otherwise I was homesick,” he said. “I missed the seacoast, and sailing. I thought what I needed was a nautical project.” A subscriber to WoodenBoat , he perused the boat plans they offered for amateur builders, and noted designs for three Crowninshield knockabouts: the Dark Harbor 17.5, the Dark Harbor 12.5, and the Camden Class 17.  He chose the Camden Class because he “particularly loved its looks.”

As with many a backyard boat project, this one dragged on for a number of years. Starer returned to Massachusetts, towing the half-finished boat with his U-Haul. Eventually he decided the partially built hull either needed to be scrapped or rescued by a new builder.

Enter Brainerd. Starer met him at a boat show where Brainerd was standing in front of another turn-of-the-century wooden daysailer design—a Watch Hill 15 built at Artisan—and the two got into a conversation. Brainerd revealed that back in his youth, when he was first thinking about becoming a boatbuilder, he, too, favored the Camden knockabout as an ideal first boat to build.  He had seen the ads for plans in the back of WoodenBoat . Why did he fixate on that design? He liked its looks.

When he started out as a boatbuilder, one of Brainerd’s first orders was for a Dark Harbor 17.5. He rebuilt a couple more, and has since branched out into repair and maintenance, as well as specializing in building classic wooden boats. But he never lost his desire to build a Camden Class knockabout. Starer, realizing that he’d found his builder, moved his project from western Massachusetts to West Rockport, Maine.

So what exactly is a knockabout?

Prior to around 1890, yachtsmen raced unique individual designs, each man using his pocketbook to try to vanquish all comers. It was common knowledge that longer boats had the advantage for speed, so in order to make the sport more fair, boats were grouped by size, usually based on waterline length. These boats were low, with flattish sections, hard bilges, and prominent overhangs. Going all-out to win cash prizes and private wagers, they tended to be crewed by heavyweights. Their oversized gaff rigs required short bowsprits, and, in some instances, boomkins to anchor the main sheet.

By the advent of the 20th century, yacht clubs were springing up in privileged enclaves along the Eastern seaboard, including in Maine. Within these various clubs, members began to realize that afternoon races would be more fair, and the boats less costly, if they sailed identical boats, kind of like the Model Ts coming off Ford’s new assembly lines. Yacht historian Maynard Bray argues that this “early desire for equal boats was much more about getting a bargain than it was about fair racing.”

Many clubs concentrated their efforts on compact, versatile boats, good for training or racing, with shelter allowing for two persons to camp overnight. These were the stipulations that defined a “knockabout.”

Members of clubs along the East Coast were ordering this style boat—low-sided, long-ended, and gaff-rigged but without a bowsprit, sporting a “self-tacking” club-footed jib and a short, humped cabin—in batches. Notable designers included Starling Burgess, Nathanael Herreshoff, Clinton Crane, and Bowdoin Bradlee Crowninshield. Crowninshield was prolific. His output ranged from Gloucester fishing and racing schooners to the America’s Cup contender Independence , and the astounding, nearly 400-foot-long, seven-masted schooner Thomas W. Lawson .

In 1908 Crowninshield was commissioned by the Manchester (Massachusetts) Yacht Club to design a true “one-design” class. (It was his design number 381.) He had the good sense to head to Maine to seek a boatbuilding yard with deep experience and hard-nosed cost control. Rice Brothers, of East Boothbay, Maine, built a first batch of 12 boats for $500 each, and they were so popular that more followed. Eventually many more of these 17.5-foot waterline boats were built for several different yacht clubs; oftentimes named after their home harbor. The design is now commonly known as the Dark Harbor 17.5. Crowninshield made small changes to the design between clubs, but all the boats were equally fast and attractive. Examples were scattered from Islesboro to North Haven and Bar Harbor.  How could the startup Camden Yacht Club fail to take notice?

Founded in 1906, the Camden Yacht Club was looking around for a suitable racing class. William J. Curtis and his family spearheaded the idea of a new knockabout fleet. His son William, Jr. conspired with Crowninshield to come up with something different by more than just small details from the ubiquitous 17.5 waterline knockabouts already racing. The design they came up with in 1915, the Camden Class, was a half-foot shorter on the waterline, six inches beamier, and had longer overhangs that extended the overall length from 25'10" to 28'3". Most noticeably, the sail area was increased by 40 square feet. The price charged by Hodgdon Brothers in East Boothbay was $770 per boat, including five full sail bags.

Four Camden Class knockabouts were built, and a 1916 edition of The Rudder magazine claimed they were “very successful.” There is no evidence that this group ever raced against the Dark Harbor knockabouts. However, at the 100th anniversary knockabout rendezvous at North Haven a few years back, the one surviving Camden Class sloop, now owned by the Cabot family on North Haven, competed against the other 17s. It did not win—but it was clearly not geared up for racing.

By the 1930s, the Camden Yacht Club switched gears and voted to acquire a fleet of European-designed and -built Haj boats. The four gaff-rigged knockabouts disappeared, with the exception of the Cabots’ boat and a basket-case aptly named Gone Away that is now in repose behind a Rockport boatshop.

All this brings us back to the Camden knockabout under construction at Artisan Boatworks. Brainerd has found places where Starer’s hull didn’t perfectly comply with the blueprints, but generally it was a credible start. Since the boat has been in the Artisan shop, the sheer and deck have been beautifully faired under the uncompromising eye of a pro, and the steam-bent cabin sides and coaming are beyond lovely. The cabintop beams were just beginning to be installed when I visited this spring. The boat will have a comfortable deep cockpit, which is a contrast with the Dark Harbors, most of which have shallow self-bailing cockpits.

I found it fascinating that the line of the stem seems to have been purposefully designed by Crowninshield with a slight bend so as to shorten the waterline. One might think this was intended to minimize the rating. It could also have been a result of Crowinshield’s experiments with concepts intended to minimize wetted surface, according to Maynard Bray.

The new Camden Class knockabout, to be named Starship , is scheduled to be launched this summer in Camden. Perhaps some of the Dark Harbor 17.5’s will be around to race it. 

No matter the result, it won’t be a case of one boat winning and one boat losing. It will be a case of two of the most perfect knockabouts in the world sharing the same space and time.

About dark harbor 17 racing sloop: klw152.

Dark Harbor 17 Racing Sloop | One of the most successful racing sloops. This classic design may be the oldest active racing sloop class in the U.S. Designed by B.B. Crowninshield in 1906, this boat’s continuing popularity lies in her sleek hull form and the ability to outsail many modern designs.

The Dark Harbor 17 Racing Sloop is a stunning and powerful vessel that has become a staple in the world of sailing. Designed in the early 1900s by naval architect Olin Stephens, the Dark Harbor 17 was created to be a competitive racer with a sleek and graceful design. Its distinctive lines and classic appearance make it a beautiful sight on the water, drawing admiration and awe from both sailors and spectators alike.

One of the most notable features of the Dark Harbor 17 is its long, narrow hull, which is designed to cut through the water with ease. This allows the sloop to reach high speeds and maneuver quickly, making it a top choice for competitive racing. The hull is also built with a deep keel and a heavy displacement, providing stability and balance in even the roughest of conditions.

As supplied, the kit provides everything necessary to build a display model of the original gaff-rigged boat. It is important to note that some pictured items may have been built with optional items not included as part of standard kits, such as pedestals, bases, cases, paint, etc. If there are any questions about the contents of a particular kit, please contact Bluejacket.
