DESCRIPTION

Wooden Ships Comments on this Drascombe Peterboat Designed by John Watkinson as the Drascombe Peterboat. Built by John Kerr in 1984. Originally built as an open boat, she had a coachroof added to a design by Iain Oughtred, turning her into a weekend boat with enough dry space below decks to allow a V-shaped double berth and sitting headroom. The cockpit is still large and spacious, perfect for family sailing. The rig is easy to handle and quick to set up before sailing. All spars stow within the length of the boat for easy handling. She comes on an as new break back road trailer in ready to go condition. The boat was given to Hunters Yard in Ludham in 2019 who performed a ‘back to wood’ refurbishment with complete new paint job top to bottom. The boat has not been used since and is in lovely condition. New upholstery, as new trailer and very good outboard engine make her a ready to go boat. The boat is light enough that she can be towed behind a family car, launched with ease and has enough space for the family making her a cost effective, great fun and hassle free method of going sailing.
