Cornish Crabbers

[chrisD]

Does anyone know if Cornish Crabbers are still being made? They seem to have a website showing just three boats, including the Shrimper. Past reports say they were being constructed by David Thomas Yachts, based in Wadebridge (not Rock). However the latter company is advertising CC models under the brand Skathow. Very mysterious. Have David Thomas actually constructed any Shrimpers?

Last time I looked the 26(?)footer was selling for an eye watering bazillion pounds. Can’t imagine they sold many!

They made a filing with Companies House a few days before Christmas, just a change of address, so I'd assume they're still active

I think there was an article in All at Sea. Did they get taken over?
