A gaff rigged Cornish Shrimper in excellent condition. It comes with the standard rigging and sails (including a furling head sail), anchor, anti-fouling, navigation lights, solar panel, two batteries, radio (new), mainsail and boat cover, compass, log and depth, cooking stove, fenders, mooring warps and cushions. If desired a drying mooring on the river Exe is available separately. Illness forces sail. Sail No: 873.
Year of Build: 2002
Colour: Black Hull, Tan Sails
Interior: Classic
Lying Ashore: Topsham (River Exe, Devon)
The boat comes without a trailer or outboard, which is reflected in the asking price. The last outboard fitted was a Yamaha F8 (8 HP, four stroke). This is about the largest outboard the boat takes, the cost new being £1,300 - £1,500. Many Shrimpers sail with engines around 5HP, which would cost considerably less.
