Traditional Looe Lugger, fully restored 2017, charter opportunity
HISTORY & DESCRIPTION:
OUR DADDY was built in Looe, Cornwall in 1921 by local boat builder Dick Pearce. She was commissioned by the Pengelly family and built to join their fleet of fishing boats that included “Our Boys” and “Our Girls” hence the name “Our Daddy”.
A 45ft dipping Lugger, she was the last sailing lugger to be built and to work out of Looe, Cornwall. Originally skippered by Alfred John Pengelly and more recently his son, she fished for some 65 years in the pilchard, mackerel and shark fishing industries.
Once owned by Mike Darlington and Stuart Murray; Mike fished on the boat with the legendary Alfred John Pengelly. OUR DADDY was purchased by the current owners in 2014 with the sole intention of operating as a charter vessel. They spent over three years refitting her to the current high standard and were rewarded for their efforts with the coveted National historic ships award of “Flagship of the year” in 2017. Presented by Princess Royal, OUR DADDY becomes one of a select few permitted to fly a special pennant.
