You have arrived at a portal for the www.HavenBuilders.com web site and for the HavenBuilders Forum (click button above)
HavenBuilders
is a web site for home builders of Joel White's Haven 12 1/2 sailboat. The Haven
is based on
Nathaniel
G. Heresshoff's famous "12 1/2." Long known for their seaworthiness, charm and
speed, these boats have been around since 1914.
The HavenBuilders web site takes the builder through each step of construction, from making the molds, to planking, to laying the deck. The "Forum" is a place where builders can share experiences and help one another as they proceed through the building process.
