The Herreshoff 15 is a 7.5-meter gaffhead sloop designed by Nathanael G. Herreshoff and built by Herreshoff Mfg. Co. since 1902. It features a keel/centerboard hull, a 2.0-meter beam, a 1.5-meter draft, and displaces 1270 kg. The design includes a "modernized rig" devised by Sidney Herreshoff and adopted in the early 1930s. The Herreshoff 15 is similar to the Buzzards Bay 15 and Watch Hill 15. Aboard *Tips from a Shipwright*, a Herreshoff 14 required structural repairs to its forefoot and garboard planks due to trailer-induced damage, necessitating the replacement of deteriorated bolts and the use of number 12 screws for refitting.0:48 The repair process involved caulking seams with cotton driven by a caulking iron and mallet, and addressing frame checking by designing a modular floorboard system.19:34
