The Buzzards Bay 19, SPARROW, is an exceptional looking day-sailer built by The Landing School by Kennebunkport, ME and designed by Peter Culler. She is styled after his 17'8" Concordia Sloop boat with a heritage that goes back to small working vessels. Based on his Concordia design, Culler added 1' to the hull, length and width wise, 6" to the draft along with additional engineering improvements to make a more seaworthy, traditional looking, gaff rigged, day sailor. Sparrow has been impeccably cared for by her enthusiastic owner since 2002, having been built at the Landing School in Kennebunkport, ME in 1996. She has spent most of her time in the Watch Hill, RI and Cohasset, MA waters. She is an exceptionally beautiful example of the model and has just recently been reconditioned by Snediker Yacht Restoration. Perfectly housed on her included Load Rite trailer, she is easily transported and currently stored at Dodson Boatyard in Stonington, CT.
