Cornish Crabbers

The compact shrimper 17 bears all the characteristics of the Cornish Crabber range. Gaff rigged and with an internally mounted out-board motor, this roomy day-boat handles superbly in all conditions with a minimum of prop drag.

The open boat can be immediately transformed into a spacious cabin with two berths and abundant stowage by raising the fold-down spray-hood. She can be easily launched or retrieved single-handed and accommodates up to five for day sailing.

The timeless 19… loved, raced, cruised all over the world. Over 1100 boats already produced and still as popular as ever.

​Classic design, it feels safe, secure at sea and sails remarkably well against many other types : and always with that Cornish Crabbers distinctive look!

Down below, surprisingly spacious accommodation or just somewhere to take a sandwich.
Beautifully designed and finished with several options available and so built to a great extent to owner requirements.

The 21… a step up from the 19 and very enjoyable for the weekend stop over. A surprisingly roomy boat: a real pocket cruiser. 19 and 21 are classic in every sense of the word.

They feel safe, secure at sea and sail remarkably well against many other types: and always with that Cornish Crabbers distinctive look!

The 24 broke with the original concept and introduced a stunning updated Crabber and one which carried some of the 21 design logic. The introduction of a carbon fibre mast and sleek hull design make the new 24 an interesting development of the Cornish Crabber.

Surprisingly fast under sail and pointing well to wind, the C24 is no slouch. Down below a clean fresh look, highly practical and even a fixed double berth.And still offering that classic look and quality of build.

This is a true family cruiser with accommodation that challenges many boats much larger.
The lifting keel allows creek crawling and yet good to wind performance when needed and two bilge keel forms ease drying out.

Full standing headroom below and a clever 4 berth layout to suit family cruising.
Generous sized cockpit and storage and a 20hp Yanmar diesel with three bladed prop make the C26 a great all round sailing cruiser

The flag ship of the Cornish Crabber line -up.This is a true classic and based on the Pilot craft that many years ago raced into the channel to pilot in larger ships. All of that history seems to have been encapsulated into the design and from the moment you step aboard you will experience a feeling of great strength and quality.

Two versions are offered for the layout below: a forward heads and shower area to given 4 berths or the double forward to give a 5 berth option. With a clever redesign of the deck layout full headroom below is now offered together with practical deck foot support at the mast : these changes greatly enhancing the lines and appeal of this classic yacht. A powerful 29hp Yanmar offers 6 knots motor work and you might find motor sailing a practical way of making distance or beating a foul tide

Bowsprit retraction and lifting are offered to keep down the marina bills: and as you would expect a full range of equipment options. Just specifying your Pilot Cutter 30 will have your heart racing never mind those days stepping on board this classic yacht.
