Shanti is a well maintained, lightly sailed comfortable boat to sail with her design of beam and lead keel. She has been well cared for (hull, deck, and oiled teak trim) She also comes with a trailer. Designed by Nathanael Herreshoff, the Bull's Eye has a nice sized cockpit that will comfortably accommodate 4 or 5 adults; however, she can be easily single handed. Many sailing clubs host Bull's Eye races all along the East Coast. These sloops are good-looking, seaworthy, and fun to sail!

Builder's Notes
Designed by: Captain Nathanael Herreshoff
Based on the Herreshoff H-12½ design, the Bull’s Eyes deck has been modified to handle stronger winds and seas yet the hull shape remained unchanged. She carries all of the same sailing characteristics as the Herreshoff H-12½ providing the seaworthiness that has made the design so famous. The Bull’s Eye has a nice size cockpit that will comfortably accommodate 4 or 5 adults however, can be easily single handed with her self tending jib.
