2018 Cornish Crabbers 24 MKV

Cornish Crabber 24 MKV For Sale. Built and initially sold in August 2018 and enjoyed by her one Owner from new."Hattie" is a heavy-displacement Gaff Cutter with a well-protected cockpit and is a delight to sail in all weathers. Whilst retaining the timeless lines and proven seaworthiness of the original Crabber 24, the modern Wolstenholme designed MKV version offers improved sailing performance and increased comfort. With a "big boat" feel within a 24-foot footprint, the MKV utilises a redesigned deck mold and a more efficient underwater profile to appeal to sailors moving down from larger cruisers or those seeking a high-spec coastal hopper with the ability of creek crawling and drying out on sandy bottoms.These boats are rare to the secondhand market and "Hattie" therefore represents a solid opportunity for someone looking for a traditional styled sailing yacht.RigGaffGAFF CUTTER RIGSelden carbon fiber mast mounted in stainless-steel tabernacleSitka spruce spars & lifting bowspritStainless-steel standing rigging (original, 2018)Furling genoa.All lines led aft to cockpit.Single line mainsail reefing, 2 pointsSelden mainsail travellerGenoa and bowsprit furlers by Aero Luff SparsSpinlock halyard clutchesFairlead tracks for both jib and staysailBoom cover (Cornish Blue)SAILSMainsailJib with UV protectionStaysail with UV protection* White with Cornish Blue UV stripWINCHES4x Barton single-speed 8:1 Jib and halyard winchesBroker commentsThe Cornish Crabber 24 was first introduced in 1975 and has proven to be a hugely successful design for the British builder with several revisions of the original basic design maintaining her appeal. In 2017 Andrew Wolstenholme was commissioned by the builders to undertake a full redesign of the Crabber 24, with the brief being to ‘progress the boat’s performance without turning it into an average white racing boat’. The Cornish Crabber 24 MkV was the result of this project. Blending modern technology with her carbon mast, timber gaff and boom with traditional styling the all new Crabber 24 MkV has rejuvenated this modern classic design while maintaining the traditional Cornish Crabbers family identity.NAVIGATION AIDSPlastimo Contest steering compassRaymarine Axiom 7" chartplotterRaymarine i50 Speed and Depth Ramarine i60 Wind indicatorRaymarine Ray52 DSC VHF radioRaymarine ST2000 Tiller PilotLED navigation lightsGROUND TACKLECQR 9kg anchor with 8m x 8mm galvanised chain and 30m x 12mm warpGENERAL EQUIPMENTLagun cockpit / saloon tableBoathookWarps & fendersStainless-steel boarding LadderSprayhood with stainless-steel frame/grab handle Ensign & staffStainless-steel midship cleats Cockpit cushionsWinch handle & pocketSAFETY EQUIPMENTManual & automatic bilge pumpsPulpit, pushpit and guardwiresFire extinguishers (Date of expiry unknown)Seago 3-in-1 Rescue Recovery Buoy (mounted on pushpit)YANMAR 2YM15 14HP INBOARD DIESEL ENGINEEngine Serial #: E078222 Cylinder, freshwater cooledEngine hours: circa 288Good service history, last serviced: ??????Shaft to 3-blade FeatherStream propellerRope cutterSingle lever Morse controlCruising speed: 5 knotsELECTRICS2x Hankook XV24MF 12V / 85AhCharged via: engine alternator & Dolphin Premium 12V / 10A battery charger Solar panel 5wFitted for shore power with cable12V and 230V outlets in cabinTANKAGE1 x 40L Fuel Tank1 x 100L Water Tank1 x 28L Holding Tank with electric waste pump and deck flush* Analogue gauges for fuel/water/holding tanksWATER SYSTEMPressurised hot & cold water System100 litre water tankWater heated by engine calorifier and immersion heaterCORNISH CRABBERS 24 MKVBuilt in 2018 by Cornish Crabbers LLP, Rock, Cornwall.Designed by Andrew Wolstenholme (Mk5 redesign first commissioned 2017)CE Category: C 6-max (Inshore) / B 4-max (Offshore)CONSTRUCTIONGRP construction with iron ballast Off-white GRP hull with Cornish Blue top plank and waterline White GRP superstructureOff White/Grey molded non-slip deck panelsCoppercoated from newLong keel with lifting steel centerplateTransom hung rudderTiller steering with autopilotDIMENSIONSLength Overall (LOA): 7.32 m / 24.02 ft (excluding bowsprit) / including bowsprit approx. 8.6 m / 28.25 ftLength Waterline (LWL): 6.66 m / 21.85 ft Beam: 2.66 m / 8.73 ft Displacement: 2,250 kg / 4,960 lb Draft: min: 0.73 m / 2.40 ft & max: 1.40 m / 4.59 ft*All figures are approximate
