Wooden Ships Comments

Currently lying in Southampton, she is believed to be a Manx Nobby and probably built as an engineless working boat before the Great War to judge from the construction. The original history of this vessel seems to be lost in the mists of time but she was almost certainly built as an engineless working boat. The last Nobby was launched in 1917.

She had a major rebuild between 1978 – 1985 and appears to be in very good, clean condition and ready for sea. She is a big, spacious boat for her dimensions with lots of character, no racer but a very comfortable sea boat.

She has a long keel, almost straight stem and fascinating pointed stern with a steeply raked stern post typical of the Nobbys. Ample freeboard, good deck space. Rudder on the stern post with long tiller.

Construction

Planked in Pitch Pine fastened to heavy sawn oak frames with galvanised dumps.

No external ballast keel. All internal ballast of iron and lead stowed in cradles Heavy grown oak floors across the centreline.
