Broker's Comments
Boatshed Essex are delighted to be presenting this attractive classic Cornish Crabbers Pilot Cutter 30 for sale. It was wonderful to visit the boat and see what looks to have been a well maintained vessel.
She comes with a unique blend of traditional and contemporary, benefitting from the easier maintained GRP decks and hull, combined with more classic lines, rig and deck gear and altogether, the owner tells us, a fine sailing and living platform:
"delightful and quick boat, with a solid feel"
This boat felt to have an ease across moving around the decks and cockpit and down below, in a modern, tasteful setup.
As can be seen throughout our listing, this boat has benefitted from a comprehensive list of recent investment, across numerous systems, including key items such as rigging, electrics, engine and interior.
These are popular boats, particularly for anybody looking for classic lines, with ease of use and upkeep. This version looks to have been well maintained and presents very well. We recommend early viewings, which can be organised through our Essex Office, where we would be delighted to help.
These boat details are subject to contract.
