Corribee For Sale

May 31st, 2010 by admin Leave a reply »

Kudu is still for sale. I’m not at all sure why she’s not gone already since as Corribee’s go, she’s a little gem, and a proven one too, but alas she hasn’t sold and so I’m forced to reduce her further, as well as undergo some pre season tidying.

I have taken all her woodwork (rubbing strake, cockpit comings, hand rails) back to bare wood, and treated it all with Deksolje D1. I’ve also rebuilt the galley and given her a new colour scheme (jersey cream) which is looking rather smart. I decided the companion way steps were a bit tatty too, so have begun to rebuild them, which includes donating a brand new stainless sink (penguin). That was over £50!

Finally, I’ve replaced the cabin sole boards with new marine ply.

Kudu is a proven sea boat, rigged for easy single handed sailing. This also happens to make her extremely safe and easy to handle with crew since nobody has to be at the mast to mess with the rigging. She’s quick for a 21footer, and will take the ground with her bilge keels. All the instruments are new as of last year, as well as most of the deck fittings (including Harken winches). In short, this must be the best boat you can possibly buy for anywhere near the money I am now asking for her. If you’re a seasoned sailor looking for a small boat, and just starting out and looking for something safe to learn in then, you almost certainly won’t find anything that beats Kudu for value and performance.

    Hey I wouldn’t be dropping the price of the boat. They always take a long time to sell. Take some of the gear off if you wish to reduce the price but don’t give it away. Someone will buy it because they want a Corribee. The condition of the hull and sails will sell the boat. All those extras can go on your next boat or be sold separately. Best of luck. I enjoyed some of your exploits, thanks for the entertainment.
