Cornish Crabber 22

Overview

A very well-maintained example of the Cornish Crabber 22, Miss Katie offers traditional elegance combined with practical modern upgrades. Built in 2010 and featuring the signature gaff rig, she is perfect for extended cruising, weekend exploration, or single-handed sailing. Lovingly cared for and updated over the years by her current owner of 12 years, she is now offered in superb order. She has benefited from continuous investment including new navigation systems, solar charging, LED lighting, electrical and engine upgrades. With just under 500 engine hours and annual yard care, she is a rare opportunity to acquire a proven gaffer with modern systems.

Berthed on a swinging mooring at Mylor Yacht Harbour, her size and functionality make her the ideal boat for family adventures and fun. She is a complete package ready to sail away.
Her mooring and subsequent winter storage are paid for until March 2026 and can be continued, if required by the new owner.
