Cornish Crabber

Some encouragement to get the 'beer tokens' out of your pocket.

Yes, thank you Rum Pirate. That'll do nicely. Or maybe the Fife cutter, Moonbeam IV.

Fantastic.

Wow Rum Pirate but a bit out of my league.

What do think about one of these seem similar to the Crabber 22/24

Not so pretty as the Cornish Yawl, but looks like she has much better headroom than the Shrimper 19, if I recall. That one-tone paint-job could have been more cleverly done - maybe all white, with a broad dark stripe near the gunwale, like the old Hallberg Rassys used, to conceal their high freeboard.

Not at all bad, though.

Hmm. I've never seen a Wayfarer or a Squib with guardrails ... and as a 6'4" chap all guardrails are more like triprails to me anyway.

I've sailed my pal's CC17 a couple of times and the lack of guardrails wasn't at all worrying.

Ditto. For guardrails to be any use at all they need to be 24" or preferably 30" tall. That is silly on a sub 20 footer. I had a Sonata with rails 15" high and they were more likely to tip me overboard than keep me on deck.

There's one of those at the club where I sail.

Lovely boat, stunning good looks, and lots of space down below.

The sort of thing I would aspire to if I had more money.

This is a lovely boat. It's moored on the River Deben. It's a Cornish Crabber Pilot Cutter.

Yarmouth 23 has made some notable voyages. Proper little seaboat.
