Description
ECLIPSE is a wonderful example of one of Nathaniel Herreshoff's most iconic designs, the Buzzard's Bay 25.
Built in 1996 of cold molded cedar by Damian McLaughlin, she is a wonderful day sailer or over-night weekender. Her large deep cockpit is comfortable and commodious for day-sailing and the cabin if fitted with a small galley, toilet and holding tank for cruising.
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.

EARLY LIFE AND EDUCATION
Growing up in Manchester, Mass. and summering on Penobscot Bay in Maine, Sean learned to sail at an early age, was a summer sailing instructor at the Camden Yacht Club and always had his eye on a career in boating.
Sean graduated from The University of Pennsylvania where he was on the lightweight crew and was captain of the Penn Sailing team. Summer jobs often included running offshore racing yachts, as well as commissioning and delivering yachts up and down the eastern seaboard.
PROFESSIONAL ACHIEVEMENTS
After college, Sean began his yacht design career with Pedrick Yacht Designs in Newport, RI where he contributed to such notable designs as Stars and Stripes ’87 for the America’s Cup and the IOR Maxi boats “Sovereign” and “Drumbeat”. After ten years, he continued his design career with his own company, Fawcett Designs where he was part of the technology team for the America3 Americas Cup campaign.
Sean is joining us after ten years at The Landing School where he was Yacht Design Instructor, Director of Education and, most recently, President.

As such, Sean has raced or cruised with clients in almost every ocean in the world including competing in multiple SORC’s, Bermuda Races, Halifax Races, Kenwood Cups and Fastnet Races. Sean brings these same analytical skills to Yacht Brokerage, assuring that the boat matches the mission of the client.
