Rugosa - HERRESHOFF

RUGOSA is a distinguished New York Yacht Club 40, renowned for its waterline length. This category of yachts is among the most esteemed in the Herreshoff NYYC One-Design series, celebrated for their exceptional racing achievements and suitability for family cruising. Known as "The Fighting 40's," these yachts have a storied history of intense competition. RUGOSA, along with its sisterships like the triumphant MARILEE, CHINOOK, and ROWDY—honored as "Boat of the Year" three times in St. Tropez—continues to uphold this legacy in the world of classic yachts.

Designed by the legendary Captain Nathanael Greene Herreshoff, the NY 40's, including RUGOSA, were crafted in 1926 and equipped with Marconi yawl rigs by A. Sidney DeWolf Herreshoff. Under the stewardship of Halsey C. Herreshoff for over three decades, RUGOSA has undergone significant enhancements, including structural upgrades, rig improvements, modern winches, advanced navigational equipment, and new sails.
