Corribee Mk 2 Bilge Keel Sail No 167 For Sale (SOLD), April 2013

This much loved Corribee Mk2 bilge keel yacht ‘Korabel’, sail number 167, has been in the same family for over 30 years and was only lightly used during that time. She has been laid up ashore for the last eight years, and is now for sale as we have bought another yacht. She will need a little work to get her ready for the water again and this is reflected in the price.

‘Korabel’ is sloop rigged with anodised aluminium mast with tabernacle for easy mast stepping, stainless steel standing rigging, Plastimo roller reefing for the headsail and slab reefing for the mainsail. She has a Mercury Sailpower 4hp 2 stroke longshaft outboard, outboard bracket, anchor, chain and warp, tricolour and allround white masthead navigation lights, compass, telescopic tiller extension for the outboard, bilge pump and inflatable dinghy. She has four berths, galley area to port and sink opposite, and cushions and curtains are in good condition. Original Corribee brochures are included in the sale.

The dark blue hull and white deck are in good condition and finished in original gelcoat, which will only require a polish to bring ‘Korabel’ back to a showroom finish. The exterior woodwork needs some attention, including the starboard rubbing strake which requires repair and refitting. The mainsail is in ‘as new’ condition. The genoa will require repair or replacement. A switch panel is fitted to the aft bulkhead. The wiring for the onboard electrics has been removed. The Mercury outboard is equipped for battery charging and wiring is included to connect this to a 12V system.

‘Korabel’ comes complete with her own custom made road trailer. The tyres are in good condition and there is a spare wheel and tyre. The wheel bearings were replaced and brakes serviced within the last 10 years.

Lying ashore near Stonehaven, Aberdeenshire. (Contact details removed – Ed)

REMARKS

This boat has been the subject of a recent renovation, and still has her original gelcoat. Due to be antifouled and coachlines repainted this week, this is a tidy little cruiser. Currently used extensively along the south coast, these cruisers have crossed Oceans single handed. Search ‘ming -ming’ for examples. Junk rig boats, extremely simple to sail, are very easy to set up and cruise with. She handles well, and has never let me down in a strong sea. Easy to reef, the rig virtually sails itself ! Much less fuss than high tension bermuda style rigs. I have used this cruiser for long weekends and long day sails with my small family. She is ready to sail for the season. fimacca12@gmail.com

For Sale – Corrie Bee, Jan 2013 SOLD March 2013

Corrie Bee is a fin-keeled tall mast sloop rigged corribee and is the boat that was specially built for Alan Toone to make his double Atlantic crossing in which he did in 1978 (see PBO May & June 1979). In order to make this trip she was specially strengthened just about all over including an extra layer of fibre-glass and an increase in ballast of 70lbs, all the ballast being lead in order to lower her CofG. Her hull condition is still good with her original gelcoat and below the waterline has been coated with gelshield 2000. All standing rigging ( 1mm oversize) was renewed in 2012. She has a few small chips and scratches (on deck) but all in all sailing wise she is good shape for a 35year old boat although the cabin could benefit from a bit of a face lift. So if you are looking tough small boat with some history she could be the one for you. I am asking £(price removed as now sold – Ed) for her and this price includes a paid-up berth at Portland Marina till March 2014. Current Equipment/fittings:

ICOM (IC-M411) DSC vhf radio
Garmin GPS152 gps/trackplotter
Nasa target log Nasa target echo sounder
Navigation lights, masthead tri and deck level.
Roller reefing forestay (Rotostay) NB. The boat is also fitted with an additional separate forestay.

For Sale – November 2012 – Bilge Keel Corribee – Breaking SOLD March 2013

I am breaking my Mk 3 Corribee, bilge keel, after storm damage which I have not the time to repair. All parts are available – email me with what you are wanting, and we can come to an arrangement.

The damage is mainly to the feet of the bilges, rear underside hull and rudder. It would be repairable to anyone with the time/inclination to undertake the work. There is a two-wheel breakback trailer which was extensively refurbished in 2011 and a launch dolly which was remade at the same time. The trailer would double as a very good car transporter, and I shall sell it as this if I dont find a boating buyer. As is a 9.9 HP long shaft Mariner 2 stroke saildrive about 10 years old. The mast is one of the longer type, with both tan and white sails (rolling genoa and slab reefing main, no 544. Located near Oswestry, Shropshire. Email npclough@btinternet.com with any enquiries.

For Sale – November 2012 – Bilge keel Coromandel SOLD December 2012

Sadly our Coromandel has to go. After a series of disasters she is now a ‘Project’. You can read about her recent history here http://tmiajrb.blogspot.co.uk.

Cons: Hull repair necessary. Two cracks from her recent escapade, above the waterline and easily repairable. Pulpit needs repair/replacement for the same reason. Bilge keels need re-glassing but the ballast is still in tact. Needs new rudder and skeg. Her engine and fuel tank were ‘liberated’ by some kind souls while she was ‘garaged’ post-storm under the bridge. I was going to take the opportunity to two-pack epoxy her hull since she is a 1982 boat and since her storm experience her starboard side is somewhat scarred.

Pros: Amazingly, given her recent adventures she still floats and is watertight. Her hinged mast is newly repaired (by Needlespar) mast (repair cost £420). I’m told a new 4″ hinged mast would cost about £1k. Sail is not pristine but is perfectly serviceable, worth £350 approx She has a well-balanced two wheel braked trailer that makes transporting and launching her straightforward. Probably worth £3-400 She has a NASA Clipper Speed & Depth log and a Clipper GPS Repeater A NASA DSC VHF Radio Bulkhead mounted Plastimo compass. Two burner stove and grill with 6kg gas bottle mounted in the aft port locker. There are the usual assortment of odds & sods that come with boats; two anchors, various fenders etc. She is currently ashore in Swanage and can be viewed by appointment. I’m not young enough and fit enough to undertake the work but any competent handyman could repair her ready for next season and have lots of fun coastal sailing. She’s a tough little cookie and I’m only sad not to be able to do her justice. Offers invited – Contact Tony Gilmore 01929 475844 for further information

For Sale – Junk Rig Mk2, Mandarin Wind and 4 wheel braked trailer for sale.(25 Sep 2012)

Mandarin Wind with Trailer £3750

I was told she was 1980 but the rear stamp cannot be made out, she has the design of this time.

This has the original gel coat to all top sides.

The hull has been stripped down, re undercoated, primed where necessary and repainted with epifanes lacquer finish in black above the waterline and red antifouling. The hull was found to be in very good condition with no signs of osmosis. (photo’s available).

The insides have been stripped down and modified to the simplest layout.

2 round port holes have been added to each side as a previous owner had cut larger windows. The portholes are fitted into 12mm marine ply which strengthens the coach roof and give the more traditional style of the junk rig.

A previous owner had started to make an engine well within the lazarette by cutting a hole (as in the coramandel) This was not finished and not right so has been filled and repaired exceptionally strongly with approx. 25mm of fibre glass and marine ply composite.

The mast and sail are in very good condition and all kept undercover. The halyard and some other rigging are with the mast but needs a new main sheet for the junk sail and pos. some more bits of rope as with the junk rig.

This is a lovely strong little yacht and ready to be further fitted to any individual requirement. I have removed all internal hull wiring and she has no instruments. The original stainless steel side nav. Light fittings have been reinstated but aren’t wired up.

I have lots of photographs of her before, during the work and after. If you are interested, please email me for further photos and info. Very genuine reason for sale.

Mandarin Wind is kept under cover at the bottom of my son’s garden in the North East not far from Newcastle.

The trailer:

This is a “transcontinental” 4 wheel, plated to 1.8T, braked trailer and works well as we towed the Corribee 380 miles to the North East with no problems using a Volvo estate car.

Wanted

I am looking for a mk1 or 2 fin or bilge corribee in good tidy condition and ready to go, original gelcoat preferred and no major osmosis work required.

The Eygthene has just completed a full racing season with a 1st 2nd and 3rd results, a very good cruising yacht as well. Please feel free to email me on raymecrack@yahoo.co.uk

HISTORY.

Blue is a reluctant sale after just one season due to other commitments. Her previous owners had her for several years, wintered her ashore and only very rarely ventured from her mooring in the summer.

Last year we launched and sailed her from Exmouth to our mooring on the Fal calling in at Dartmouth, Newton Ferrers and Mevagissey. After day and weekend sailing we returned to Newton Ferrers via Fowey at the end of September and thence up the Tamar to Weir Quay where she was craned onto her trailer and towed home further up the valley.

The survey we commissioned did not throw up any gremlins and the surveyor judged her to be structurally sound.

She comes well equipped but would benefit from some cosmetic tidying inside.

We have not been able to get her on the water this year but she is antifouled, on the trailer and generally ready to go.

For Sale with or without the trailer.

For Sale – Corribee 434 Goldcrest – (June 11th 2012)

History

I bought the boat in 2006, after one previous owner. I think, the boat originates from approximately the mid-70’s. She was built as a father and son project from a ‘bare boat’ supplied by Newbridge. She was rarely sailed by the previous owners. When she was, it was (I believe) as a trailer-sailer. Certainly when I took her over, her condition was consistent with this story; e.g. the sails were virtually new and sheets were likewise (but have subsequently been replaced by higher quality rope).

Included

Hull, spars and rigging as seen

Main, working jib (both original but in good condition – see above) and genoa new from Emsworth in 2011

Plastimo furling system for jib, fitted 2011

Main halyard (clutch) and topping lift (cleat) brought aft to cockpit

Dodgers and main sail cover new in 2011

Compass mounted on bulkhead, fitted 2011

Full cushion-set for below decks in good condition

Fitted sink and water system – never used in anger by myself!

Cabinet work for stove, but no stove fitted

Sea toilet, one valve seized shut, will need replacing if you want to use this toilet.

Anchor and chain

4-wheel, braked, flat-bed trailer and 2 ratchet straps for load security. I tow her comfortably behind a T5 camper-van. All up weight I would estimate to be somewhere between a ton and a ton and a half.

Mariner 4HP (2006) is not included in the price, negotiation possible (Simply, I will need an auxiliary engine for my new boat and would like to keep the current engine, but as I say…)

General condition

Hull and cockpit are dry and watertight. Deck fittings have been re-seated as necessary. Hull and deck are in a tidy condition and the wooden deck fittings have all recently been stripped re-varnished. The hull has been anti-fouled for the last 6 years, prior to that she didn’t sit in water and the hull is/was clean and in good condition.

Inside the cabin, the original vinyl lining has been removed back to bare glass-fibre. The wooden (ply) linings are all available, in good condition, but not fitted. There is a ‘sea toilet’ but one of the valves is seized shut.

In a general sense, I have been working on the outside, ensuring all that is there is in good shape and there still remains a cabin fit-out to be done. Consequently, visibility of deck fittings and general hull condition above and below is currently good.

There are no electrics or lights on her at the moment. The original wiring system has largely been removed and while the cabin is essentially ‘bare walled’ fitting a new system would be easy and practical.

Offers around £2350

If you are removing one or have one lying around that has been removed then would be glad to buy it from you. One in need of re-conditioning is fine. Alternatively, if you have another make that will fit then that’s fine, would be interested in that. Thanks.

Wanted – I am looking for a replacement fractional rig mast for our 1969 Mark 1 Corribee. The boat was dismasted when a neighbouring boat broke its moorings in the harbour and mast tangled in the gale of 26th May resulting in our mast being broken at the crosstrees and crashing down on the boat. Does anyone know of such a mast?

Sails Wanted

I have recently acquired a Mark 2 Corribbee which requires some work done to it (based in Gosport), which I and a friend intend to DIY – nothing major, but I desperately require a set of sails – just can’t seem to find any secondhand ones (limited budget) – can anyone help please, failing that, does anyone have the sail (luff, leech etc) measurements for the head and mainsails so that I can try and find sails from another boat that may fit.

Please contact mkonas@bam.co.uk
