About the town class
The Town Class Sloop was originally designed in 1931 and built by Pert Lowell Company in Newbury, MA. The original construction consisted of lap-strake cedar planking on oak frames. The Landing School builds these boats with epoxy-bonded marine plywood and epoxy-laminated frames. These boats are built to last, and whether it be competing in the Town Class Nationals regatta or enjoying a leisurely, family day-sail, A Landing School “Townie” is a great choice for beginner and experienced sailors.
