Description
Marketing Description The Cornish Crabber is without a doubt one of the prettiest boats that you will ever lay eyes on. This particular boat has been in the hands of the same family since she was new and has been a much loved family cruiser. Most recently she has been mainly day sailed but her owner has maintained her to a high standard. Mechanically she was repowered in 2001 and the engine was removed and overhauled in 2024. Her sails and rigging have been regularly replaced and her bright work is in great shape for her years.Below decks is comfy and remarkably spacious when you consider her fairly narrow beam.
Mechanical Vessel is powered by a single cylinder Yanmar 1GM10, 9hp inboard diesel engine. The engine was installed in 2001 and has been regularly maintained. Her most recent overhaul was earlier in 2024 when the engine was removed, stripped down, all gaskets replaced and repainted. Prior to installing the engine bay was stripped, cleaned and repainted. Single lever engine control with forward and reverse gearing. Engine start panel with stop/start buttons and audible/visual warnings for oil pressure, temperature and charging. Reduction gearbox driving stainless steel shaft and 3-bladed fixed propeller.
