Broker's Comments

Boatshed Plymouth are pleased to offer this 1977 Cornish Crabber 245 MK 1 for sale.
If you like traditional design boats without the hassle of the maintenance associated with an older boat, this is the boat for you. Maintained to a very high standard, this is a very good example of the Mk1 Crabber.
The black hull gives good presence and contrasts to the red sails and wooden rig.
When I first went aboard I noticed size of the beam, making her seem much bigger then a 24 footer. Down below the layout is very functional with a surprising amount of berth space, numerous storage lockers and she is well cared for with all the paint work and timber in very good condition.
This lovely Crabber is ready to provide many hours of sailing enjoyment for anyone who is looking for a traditional style sailing boat.

She is priced to sell and well worth a look.
