General Description

ECLIPSE is a wonderful example of one of Nathaniel Herreshoff's most iconic designs, the Buzzard's Bay 25.

Her keel-centerboard configuration allow gunk-holing and anchoring in the most secluded coves and harbors. The two cylinder Yanmar diesel assures the ability to get home easily when the wind dies.


This beautiful boat is sure to give the next owner great joy to own, to sail, and simply to just gaze upon.
