1983 Borresen BB10 fractional rig sloop
$13,500.
Totally charming and very simple diesel powered Danish-built day sailer, same family almost since new. Sassafras spent most of her life back East (Annapolis and Vermont), was moved to CA in 2016 and is being offered for sale for the first time since. The BB looks like a classic wood sailboat from the 1920s but it's a fiberglass hull with a modern underbody so you have the best of moth worlds (and note that it has a ballast-to-displacement ratio of 54% so is very sfiff which is what you want on the Bay!).
Single cylinder 10hp Yanmar diesel just serviced (and most little day sailers are powered by outboards!), roller furler head sail with 95% jib, sails and teak decks in very good shape; Sassafra s is the only BB10 for sale in the U.S. at present and must be seen to be appreciated.
Price just significantly reduced and offers encouraged.

A Soling with the cabin house of a Dragon? The BB 10 Meter is the creation of Borge Borreson and his son, Anders, who designed and originally built the boat in Denmark. In the past, the Borresons built Solings ( one of which won the gold medal in the 1980 Olympics) and Dragons, and the exposure to the bracing classes made the younger Borreson keen enough to obtain his degree in naval architecture.Then they had the idea of producing a boat of their own design, a performance-oriented family racer that was easy to sail. This boat is a natural progression for men who have been producing Dragons and Solings, and they have managed to keep that aesthetic appeal in their new creation.
Many of you have seen and some have had the pleasure of sailing a Soling, so it may be helpful to use the Olympic keelboat as a comparison:
First, enlarge a Soling about 20 per cent (enlarging a boat is not this straightforward in yacht design, but this is just an exercise). This boat now has the same freeboard and length as the BB-10, but the Borresons have produced a yacht with less beam. And you thought that a blown-up Soling looked slim. The sailing stability of a boat is always an interesting characteristic to study, and from the designer's point of view one of the most challenging to tune to perfection.
The BB-10 has a lot of ballast (54 per cent of its weight is lead) which will help offset its very narrow beam. Our overgrown Soling has about the same percentage of ballast, and you have to perform all kinds of outrageous hiking maneuvers to keep it sailing upwind at peak performance. Mom and Dad don't have the knees for that kind of stuff anymore. So how does the BB-10 do it? Two important factors: (1) It has enough extra displacement to give the hull a greater righting moment, and (2) it has a smaller sail-plan.
The sail-plan arrangement is very sensible. For those super light-air days you can pull out the big genoa, but often the little lapper will be all that is required to scoot around the lake, and you won't be, overpowered. To get you into those shallow spots for lunch, Borreson has kept the draft down to four feet, 10 inches.
The resulting keel's aspect ratio is a little low for efficiency, but has lots of area. The sailing characteristics resulting from combining that keel with the narrow hull should be minimal leeway and very little chance of stalling the keel-even coming out of one of those tacks when your crew, in the heat of the moment, has wrapped the sheet counterclockwise around the winch.
Their brochure states that "standing headroom is only four feet, nine inches, though sitting headroom is ample." I'm not sure that "standing headroom" is the correct term here, but we will let the figures speak for themselves. The interior is not meant to be lush. It's a bit like camping in a fiberglass tent. There are settee berths for sitting or snoozing and a galley module that pulls out from under the cockpit when required. Just forward of the mast are several substantial built-in lockers, and forward of those a large V berth.
With more than a hundred boats sailing in Europe, this design is not new. According to Bob Scharf of Scandinavian Yachts in Annapolis, Maryland, the bid to expand the BB- lO's market began with a brief period of production in the United States (about 20 were built) but they are now moving their molds to Whitby Boat Works in Ontario.
The Canadian dollar, combined with Whitby's quality construction, makes the move look attractive, and if all goes as planned, the first boat off the line should be slipping into the water just about now.

More than 150 rescued over 5 days from rip currents at North Carolina beaches
More than 160 swimmers were rescued over the last week and weekend from rip currents on North Carolina beaches.
The National Weather Service in Wilmington, North Carolina told USA TODAY that 164 rescues from rip currents were performed from June 18-22 in New Hanover County along the coast, with 95 alone at Carolina Beach.
The National Weather Service said the weekend's currents were due to an east-southeast swell and the full moon. As of Tuesday, the NWS warns that part of the coast, from around New Hanover to Pender is still at a moderate rip current risk, and the coastal area from Coastal Onslow to Shackleford Banks is at a high risk.
Here's what to know about rip currents as people flock to beaches this summer.
Rip currents: A guide to the beachside danger causing drownings
Rip current deaths this summer
People at beaches around the southeast have been affected by rip currents this month, with a couple drowning off Stuart Beach at Hutchinson Island, Florida on June 20 and four people killed within 48 hours off Panama City, Florida as of June 22.
What is a rip current?
A rip current is a current of water flowing away from the shore at surf beaches, according to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration. Rip currents typically extend from near the shoreline, through the surf zone and past the line of breaking waves.
They are formed when waves break near the shoreline, piling up water between breaking waves and the beach, the NOAA says. Water can return to sea via a rip current, a narrow jet of water moving away from shore perpendicular to the shoreline. The length of rip currents can vary, from as narrow as 10-20 feet in width to up to 10 times wider.
How to spot a rip current
Rip currents typically form at low spots or breaks in sandbars, and can occur at any beach with breaking waves, according to the NOAA. Some clues of rip currents can include:
- Channel of churning, choppy water
- Area with a notable difference in water color
- Line of foam, seaweed or debris moving steadily seaward
- Breaking in incoming wave pattern
What to do if you're caught in a rip current
Getting caught in a rip current can be terrifying, but there are ways to safety get out of one. Here's what to know it it happens.
- Relax: Rip currents pull you out, not under.
- Swim parallel to the beach and not against the current.
- Float or tread water until you escape the current or are rescued.
- Draw attention to yourself by yelling and waving.
If someone else is caught in a rip current, alert a lifeguard, dial 911 or throw the person something that floats. Do not enter the water yourself without a flotation device.

This magical machine KISMET is the second yacht I’ve had built with Moran Yacht & Ship. KISMET has brought joy, hope, and the gift of discovery to many lives - including my own. You have made this world a better place! Owner, KISMET
By way of background, my business interests include controlling stakes in 3 publicly traded companies which operate vessels in the 500 to 5000dwt range. On average, one new vessel a year would be added to the fleet. As a result, I have access to in-house marine architects, engineers and construction supervisors. Consequently, when I decided to build my first large motor yacht, I did not feel I needed the services of a company like Moran Yacht & Ship. In any event, I was persuaded to let them negotiate on my behalf while I simultaneously held discussions with other building options. Moran Yacht & Ship understands yachts, their incredibly complex systems, and what constitutes a practical solution to various owners’ ideas. In short, I would not consider building another yacht without engaging Moran Yacht & Ship to provide the services they are so good in delivering. Former Owner, NORTHERN STAR
