Baby Blue, Sail No. 249 in the Friendship Sloop Society, was built in 1983 by the Jarvis Newman Company of Southwest Harbor, Maine. She is the last Newman Pemaquid built to date and a beautiful example of a traditional Maine sloop with modern amenities. Her hull is hand-laid fiberglass, and she has a one-piece molded fiberglass deck assembly with teak overlay. Her current homeport is Falmouth, Maine, but for many years she was on Lake Champlain. Her recent two owners have given her excellent care and upgrades as necessary. For the buyer who appreciates Maine's own classic sloop with proven stability, Baby Blue may be your sloop!
