Belhaven 19
Designed by Graham Byrnes
A 19 ft pocket cruiser from Graham Byrnes of B&B Yacht Designs, developed from the Core Sound series for sailors who asked for a cabin. Stitch and glue plywood with a cat ketch rig of 164 sq ft, about 1,100 lb with variable ballast drawn at 300 lb, and a draft of 9 in with the board up. The offset centerboard leaves the cabin open for three berths and a small galley.
B&B's butterfly hull assembly needs no lofting or building jig, and the designer says an inexperienced builder can make a good job of it. Budget 1,000 to 1,600 hours as a rough guide. The medians below come from builders who logged this boat here.
What building a Belhaven 19 actually takes
Medians from the build logs kept on this site, not the designer’s estimate. Nobody has logged this boat here yet, so they are empty until the first builder does.
Those medians firm up as more people log this boat.
