For Sale – ‘OpusToo’, Corribee mkII (Posted Oct 2021)

In June 2021 I bought my Corribee, which was called Opustoo. It is featured on this page.
I bought as a reclaim from Thornham Marina, near Emsworth West Sussex.
I spent in excess of £3500 in a 3 month period to resurrect her, this cost does not include the time spent during the refit.
I now realise that the boat is too small for myself and 2 boys. An opportunity has arisen to buy a Westerly Centaur for an amazing price. This more suitable for us as a family.
I am happy to reduce the cost of my Corribee to £2375 for a quick sale. 
Opustoo sat on the hard for about 3 years, deteriorating.
Extensive work has gone into her, as the plan was to keep her for a few years, so no expenses were spared.

New running rigging, new seacocks, new 20w solar panel, battery, new depth gauge, compass, 1 main sail, Genoa, new cockpit drains and new hose. Vhf radio connection, but will need the actual radio, as the previous was registered to another boat, but kept going into an emergency mode. 
All of the wood work on deck was sanded down and varnish (6 coats) I am happy to do another coat of varnish for the new buyer at no extra cost, before or after the winter season.

Price – £2375

For Sale – Two MkII Fin-keel Corribees (posted August 2021)

I have two Mark 2 fin keel Corribees for sale, both in Shell Bay Boatyard on the Studland peninsular side of Poole Harbour , beside the chain ferry terminal.
Having now retired just before my 70th birthday and been granted freedom to travel I intend to spend six months every summer on my bigger boat in the Med and it seems selfish, as well as extravagant, to keep two idle in England.
Lets’ start with Mashua:

My girlfriend and I have loved sailing Mashua since I bought her in Pin Mill in May 2014 and sailed her single-handed round to Poole. She is well equipped with a full set of main and as many as 5 foresails all in decent condition. A 7 hp Honda outboard also regularly serviced and running well is available by separate negotiation. Her electrics are powered by a 12V solar panel on the companionway hatch-cover.  All interior cushions professionally renewed 2015;  she was regularly raced on the Orwell and is a slippery boat but I’m no racer now. Her hull and decks are currently being professionally recoated.

Cara may be, if anything, an even smarter boat and a different story.

I bought her right up in Lochgilphead in 2017.  I had been looking for a trailer for Mashua with the idea of taking her back and forth to Blakeney in Norfolk rather faster than my first voyage down from Pin Mill in Mashua.  I saw both boat and trailer plus launching trolley advertised, and thought I might have one in Norfolk and one in Dorset. So I towed Cara down to Dorset with a pal which was an adventure in itself (old tyres and two blowouts in the first 50 miles). Cara belonged to a retired RAF engineer who had spent a couple of years preparing her for long distance cruising off the west coast of Scotland.

He had completely stripped and recoated hull, decks and interior, renewed all the rigging and all the electrics, revarnished the brightwork etc etc.  On the trailer he had stripped down and renewed both sets of wheel bearings and serviced the jockey wheel and legs, and serviced the launching trolley. But, sadly, just as he was finishing the job he was diagnosed with a medical condition which meant he couldn’t sail off shore.  I can’t today guarantee the condition of the trailer because despite two new tyres that have only done one trip and a complete overhaul in 2017 it has spent the last 3 years being manhandled about the yard by staff who are, shall we say, sometimes a little careless.

My initial idea was to take Mashua up to Norfolk but first to Coppercoat Cara and leave her permanently afloat in Poole Harbour (which tests by Coppercoat suggests is possible) so I could sail her in the winter,

So I had her sandblasted and bought the Coppercoat ,but the chaps who’d said they’d do it were always too busy and I, despite my advanced age, found myself called on to work in the City rather more than I had anticipated and nothing happened for 3 years until Lockdown. The Coppercoat is also in Shell Bay if required.

So Cara also comes with good sails, an outboard with 12V alternator (by separate negotiation) and a brand new interior fitted to RAF standards and a new DSC VHF radio. 

In my opinion either boat would very happily sail across the Atlantic with very little additional preparation- but perhaps stocking up on fresh water and provisions would be wise.

FOR SALE SOLD – mkII Newbridge Corribee, 21 ft, 1978 (posted Aug 2021, sold September 2021)  

Mk2 Newbridge Corribee, 21ft, bilge keel, draught 2 ft 2 ins.  Built 1978 (PAA 55434), hull number 7878.     Currently ashore for viewing, on her road trailer, near Cheddar, Somerset

Carmina is a typical seaworthy, tough little Corribee – a great starter boat for day sailing or inshore cruising, or for single handed sailing.   I have been sailing her lightly in the Bristol Channel (Portishead and Burnham on Sea) for the last eight years and have done quite a bit of work on her.   Now sadly selling because I am fully committed crewing on larger yachts.  

INTERNAL: Four berths in a single cabin. Two single berths forward and two single quarterberths aft.  The interior is clean and tidy, with blue fitted cushions and cream headlining, with LED cabin lighting.   The interior layout has been substantially modified, with a removable chart table over the galley on the port side, and small locker on the starboard side.  There is a Thetford Porta Potty chemical toilet under the cushions between the forward bunks.

SPARS, RIGGING & SAILS: Sloop rigged with deck-stepped alloy mast and boom and stainless steel rigging.  Both main and genoa are roller reefed – the main on a rotating boom, the genoa on a Plastimo roller reefer. There is a good set of sails – genoa, main, jib and storm job (all old but perfectly serviceable), with a nice red/white cruising chute (almost new).    The running rigging is simple – main, genoa and spinnaker halyards and topping lift only.  Sheets in good condition, and a good set of warps.   

HULL:  The hull is blue, with a few scratches, and some minor osmosis on the port bow panel, but this has never given me any problems. There are some old fibreglass repairs around the running strake (before my time), but she is sound and dry throughout.  

ENGINE:   Mariner Sailmate 8HP 2-stroke long-shaft outboard (1998, Ser No 09989640.  This engine is designed specifically for yachts.  It’s in good condition, recently serviced and a sweet runner – very reliable.  This is a powerful engine for a boat of this size, but will give her 5+ knots – useful in the Bristol Channel tides. It has a 3KW rectifier battery charger, which is OK for top-up but won’t charge a flat battery. There is a large (20L) removable fuel tank in the lazaret, which should give you around 6 hours motoring.    

There is a good set of ancillaries: 
Clipper Duet combined Log and Echo Sounder, with cockpit read-out
Handheld/clip-on compass
Cobra Marine MRHH 325 handheld/clip-on VHF radio
Samsung Galaxy Tab 3 tablet, loaded with Navionics + UK & Ireland navigation app 
Charging socket for tablet/phone
Gas alarm 
Raymarine ST 1000+ Tiller Autohelm (works OK in a gentle sea, but can’t cope with rough weather)
All new electric wiring

For sale – 1970 MKII Corribee ‘Blue Siren’ – (Posted July 2021)

This is a project boat as can be seen from the photos, but is basically a very sound vessel with no osmosis or issues with the mast compression beam etc. Bought as a project about 2 years ago, including a mooring on the River Exe, as her previous owner had been unable to use her for a couple of years. I have done some of the work required (refinishing of some of the exterior wood, replacing two of the three windows, rubbing down the paintwork and wood, valeting the sails) as well as getting her safely off the Exe and buying a very good road trailer (heavy galvanised construction with no rust, twin braked 1000kg axles with four new tyres and a new tow hitch and new wood bed for the keels to stand on). However, my time and energy levels are low as there is lots going on so she needs a new home.
Jobs left include repainting, tidying the interior, rewiring, reattaching the outboard bracket and fitting the engine. I bought a very nice Suzuki long shaft four stroke 4HP engine from a local dealer to power her, which is about 12 years old but has literally not been used – just serviced annually by the previous owner and not used since I had it serviced and brought it home last year. I also have remote control cables and a throttle/gear lever for the cockpit plus the remote fittings for the engine, and a 12 litre remote tank, all ready to be fitted.
The sails are in good order and quite new (still ‘crisp’, though the UV strip on the genoa is a bit worn) and there are fenders and an anchor and some warps, all the interior cushions etc. so it’s all there and just needs someone with the time and energy to finish her off.
I’m asking £1,700 for the boat, trailer and engine as a complete package, but would split so long as Blue Siren goes to a new home. If you are interested in the mooring I am also happy to sell as an extra ‘add on’. It is located just a few hundred metres off the Exe Sailing Club in area 2 of the Lower Exe Mooring Authority, and you can get on and off in Blue Siren two hours either side of high water. I renewed the ground tackle in March 2020 just prior to lockdown mark 1.

Wanted – Bilge Keel Corribee (Posted June 2021)

Hello everyone, We are a couple from Portugal and inspired by Roger Taylor and some other simple sailors we  dream of a bilge keel Corribee to start some adventures together.
We’ve been looking for a long time and it just seems impossible to find one in Europe…
We are unfortunately on a limited budget so we would agree to negotiate a corribee even if it is in very poor condition. We are willing and we now have the knowledge, time and space to restore.

The ideal would be Portugal, Espana or France and we would be available to bring it by road if it is in bad condition.

If you know someone who knows someone, we would be very grateful.

I have a 1978 bilge keel Corribee that has been sat in my garage in Newcastle upon Tyne for several years and I’ve not had time to finish the work to get her back on the water.
I have never sailed the boat but i believe she started life in Itchenor (original name was “Itch”) and then was sailed on Ullswater in the 80s. She is sat on a trailer which isn’t at all road worthy and was delivered to me piggy backed onto another trailer.
Inventory:
Mast, Boom,
Main sail, Jib, Storm jib and spinnaker
Vire 7 engine still in situ and is a runner, although the original metal fuel tank is gone.
Cabin headlining and cushions are good.
Rubbing strakes and coach roof handles were rotten and have been removed
The companion way door and housing has been removed as it was rotten, but i have a newly cut surround ready to be fitted.

She’s a lovely boat in need of with a bit of TLC. (The photos are all oldish pics because I would need to clear my garage to get some decent new photos). To be fair she is in no worse condition now than she was in 2012.

For Sale SOLD – Corribee 21 Elektra  – Located in Barmouth Gwynedd (Posted August 2020. Sold sept 2020)

Elektra has a comprehensive history on the Corribee Association’s website. The yacht is exceptional good condition and all the current improvements are listed below. Elektra has the benefit of a recently purchased Whitewater trailer specifically designed for a fin keeled Corribee. Fully roadworthy with all the electrics in working order and in virtually as new condition. Elektra has been very lightly used since purchased from Katie Miller and family circumstances have forced the need to sell.

In 2015/16 she had a full respray over hull and coach roof, a full refit inside with new wiring and new leisure battery in 2019. The inside has also been flo-coated with gel coat in grey and white, the seating area has been painted in a hard wearing gloss white and the cabin sole has been painted in anti-slip paint matching the decks which have been painted in grey anti slip International deck paint.
The electrics on the boat include:-
Vhf radio
Marine cd player/radio
x2 fused electric panels
Nav lights
Anchor light
Steaming light
Flush mounted LED lighting
Compass with light
New solar panel unit on board but not fitted

All standing rigging was replaced in 2019. Sails include x2 main sails, x2 fore sails, all with bags. A new sprayhood, a new sail stacking system with lazyjacks and a full length dodger to the stern were fitted in 2019. Also included is an anchor, chain, rope, and oar boat hook. The boat has plenty of storage space with lockers under all seats and aft locker. She is powered by a Tohatsu 5hp four stroke sail power outboard which charges the battery. It has a separate fuel tank of 20lts and very economical to run. The engine was serviced with new impeller, gear box oil and sacrificial anode in 2019 and is in good running order.
This boat has an interesting history having been sailed around the UK solo by a young woman called Katie Miller in 2006 for the Ellen MacArthur Cancer Trust. A search for ‘Elektra Katie Miller’ on the Unified Corribee website will give you much of the history of this yacht.

For Sale Sold – Bilge Keel Corribee (Posted June 2019, sold July 2019)

Traditional cruiser designed by Robert Tucker, (age unknown but probably 1970’s). Owned since 2004, ‘Kyra’ and has been moored in Abersoch harbour for a number of seasons and taken out for storage at home over the winter months. We have used her as a day boat and consequently she is fitted out with the minimum of equipment.

Below deck:
The accommodation is four berths in a single cabin, two single berths forward and two single berths aft, partly beneath the cockpit seats. They all have cushion seating. There are two lockers, both of which have top surfaces. The windows and cabin hatches have been repaired or renewed. There are also a couple of shelves aft under the cockpit seats. She has a battery and garmin depth gauge, but the navigation lights need rewiring.

Topside:
Deck stepped alloy mast and boom. In 2017, the rubbing strip, grab handles and cabin hatch were repaired or replaced and the windows renewed. The genoa tracks and mainsheet traveller block and track were also renewed, as were the halyards etc. The stainless steel  push and pulpits were renovated and the guard wire replaced. A new roller stemhead was fitted and an aluminium outboard motor bracket was added to the stern. She also has an AH800 tiller pilot although we have never used it.

Sails:
Roller reefing mainsail and plastimo roller reefing genoa. All halyards were renewed 2017 along with some bottle screws to the rigging.

Additional equipment:
CQR plough anchor and kedge anchor, 4 fenders, horseshoe lifebuoy, McMurdo lifebuoy light, buoyancy aid, boat hook.

Outboard Engine:
Evinrude 4hp long shaft two stroke with external fuel tank

Trailer:
New 2016. A purpose built single axle trailer from SBS Trailers complete with flush kit and spare wheel with tyre, and a trailer lock. Also lighting board and straps for securing boat to trailer.

Summary:
Overall she is in fair condition but some maintenance may be required. A couple of sail battens have broken and will need replacing. The navigation lights need rewiring. I have not renewed the rigging since I bought her and there is some paint blistering on the hull.

Location: Oswestry, Shropshire, UK.

For Sale SOLD – 1973 Corribee MkII with trailer (Posted Dec 2018, Sold May 2019)

 

For sale is my 1973 Corribee, with her dedicated trailer. 
She is currently (nov 2018) in commission in Fenit, Co Kerry, Ireland. Great little boat to handle and have fun with, even in winter in the North Atlantic. She is also a bilge keeler and draws two to three feet, ideal to explore the shallow bays and safe; if you run aground you can walk out of the boat 🙂 

Anneli J is an old boat, fixed to “agricultural standard” that is, she is in working order but not very pretty. The hull was painted and antifouled this summer. 
Any buyer would want to spend some time varnishing and tidying up to get some praise at the marina. 
I am selling because I want to upgrade to a larger boat to accommodate the family. 

Details:
Engine: two cycle 8 hp outboard, serviced this summer. With alternator to charge the battery 
Sails: in good condition, inspected and some stitching done this summer. I was advised that the sails are good. Slab reefing. 
Standing Rigging: Unknown year, but in good condition, 
Mast in a tabernacle, easy to drop by two people or a well organised one. 
Running rigging: Mixture of old and new, it’s been replaced as needed
Galley: a simple camping hob, new. After I bought it I realised that I don’t want gas on the boat. 
Cushions: Old but not broken. 
Electrics: nav lights, power to the tiller steering and instruments in working order. Anchor light is new but needs connecting (New cable fitted through mast)

Instruments: depth sounder and compass. 
Anchor, 25m of chain, 1/2 dozen mix fenders and the usual things that accumulate on a boat like shackles, lines, etc 
Trailer: SBS 1500kg – bought new last February (cost= £2200). the trailer will not be sold separately.  the year is approximate – sail number 375

Please note, the boat is in Ireland, so transport will be a bummer. But the trailer is in top condition since it’s new. 

(3500 euro, ONO for corribee fans  Reduced to €2000) SOLD

For Sale SOLD – Corribee Mk 2  fin keel boat (Posted Oct 2018)

I only bought this lovely little Corribee last year, but have had a chance to upgrade, so am looking to pass the Corribee on to a new home. She is in good condition for her age (built in the 70s) and the hull was re-painted by the previous owner, plus non-slip deck matting applied. She comes with an almost new main sail, plus a good condition furling headsail. All rigging is in excellent condition.

The cabin interior is a bit of a blank canvas ie not fitted out, except for a small chart table and one fitted cupboard. She does have a full complement of nearly new covered cushions.
She does have a Depth finder and Compass fitted, but the electrical system needs to be re-wired – very simple.
Harriet comes complete with a road trailer, which is robust but only in average condition. It is safe for the road, brakes work etc.
Currently on a swinging mooring on Rutland Water, but soon to be brought off the water on to her trailer.
More photos available on request.

For Sale SOLD – Corribee Mk 2, sail no 343, built 1978, bilge keel (posted Sept 2018, Sold Nov 2018) 

‘Bluebird’ is in good sound condition, but needs some tlc, e.g. some interior upholstery/headlining is a little tatty and a short length of rubbing strake needs replacing.

The present owners bought her in 2003 and have enjoyed sailing her in the Plymouth Sound area regularly every season since then. Sadly, the arrival of grandchildren and restricted time mean that we have to sell her.
Bluebird is at present berthed on a pontoon at Millbay Village Marina, and it takes literally 2 minutes to reach Plymouth Sound. This pontoon would be available for the purchaser if required, after discussion with the landlord.
She comes with:
Excellent 5hp Mercury outboard – purchased new in 2013 and fully serviced annually ( or she can be bought for £650 without the outboard)
A full set of sails, main, furling jib, spinnaker (and boom)
Usual equipment, fenders, mooring lines, spare ropes, anchors, boathook, cockpit grating, lifebelt
Gas cooker, lights and electrical equipment ,depth sounder, log etc (although as we have used her mainly for day sailing the latter have not been used for a while.)

Please contact me for further details.

For Sale – Junk rig Corribee, Trivial Pursuit (posted Sep 2018)

I am selling our UK built Corribee Trailer Sailor in Junk Rig form with bilge keels. Currently located in Kefalonia, Greece. We stay at Argostoli Camping in summer for €1400 (inc bills) with our caravan.

I want another one, but likely a catamaran in the future. The downside is, there are hardly any about with this rig. For summer I leave it in the water in the marina which is free like most of Kefalonia. Only two places charge I believe. The boat was towed over by me 2 years ago, registered recently on the UK SRR (I believe it’s £25 to change names), antifouled, engine flushed and it’s been taking me around the island to date. I checked with the port authority before sailing and all they wanted for a UK registered boat was insurance. £93 annually to note for my first year’s insurance. I just added the SRR as I was advised by another UK sailor.

It’s in great condition and ready for its next owner.

It has a hinged mast, so you can drop it down for towing/maintenance easily.

Solar panel which is plenty as it only has navigation lights, depth sounder and internal led white light.

The price includes a great condition trailer and Suzuki 6hp motor with low hours.

 

Price: £4000.

I may take interesting part exchanges to note. Laptops/motorcycles or what have you?

Hello, Looking for a Corribee mk II or mk III. Here’s a list of the things I’m looking for :

1. Fairly ready to sail. I don’t mind if it needs cleaning, painting, new headlining etc. (rewiring ok too). If it needs glassing and renovation then, sorry no! The hull, keel, rudder and mast must be in sound structural condition. The rigging should also be OK.

2. Need not have an outboard but good if it does.

3. Better with a trailer

4. Located (or parked up) on the west coast of uk.

5. Bilge keels would be better.

Do you – or someone you know – have a boat that you think is ok, then I would be happy to hear from you.

For Sale SOLD – MK3 Corribee, bilge keel (Posted June 2018 sold Nov 2018)

Mk3 Corribee for sale, currently sitting on mooring in Emsworth, ready to sail away today.

The boat has all new standing and running rigging (replaced 2017)
New LED navigation lights and fuse panel.
All the wooden grab handles on deck have been replaced with custom made handles made in Iroko.
Brand new hand operated bilge pump.
12v Battery
The deck is in original gelcoat and the topsides are painted in dark green Toplac.

The main is used but in good condition – no repairs. It has two rigged reefing points in the main. The roller reefing genoa is usable but tatty and could do with replacing but boat will happily sail with it as is. Comes with spinnaker pole but no spinnaker.

The sale includes plough anchor and warp, horseshoe lifebouy on stern bracket and new Nasa target depth sounder.

This boat is an unfinished project and it needs some jobs doing. None of these are urgent and she can be happily sailed as is:

The paint on the topsides is peeling and needs re-coating. I have enough paint available to give the boat a new topcoat.
The cabin has had the headlining and foam fluff removed, which needs replacing.
All the original seat cushions come with the boat but they are in bare foam and need recovering.
The front window is intact but the glass is crazed and needs replacing at some point.
The boat was on a swing mooring over the winter, and whilst it is heavily anti-fouled it needs beaching for a scrub.

Not shown in the interior photo are all of the wooden covers for the under berth storage areas which are included and have been recently re-varnished.

Additional:

The boat is available with two separate outboard motors which are not included in the sale price:

A two stroke Seagull Silver Century Longshaft – 5hp (£150) or Honda BF5a 4-stroke outboard (£450)

The half tide mooring on which the boat is currently moored is also available at a much reduced rate for the rest of the 2018 – 2019 season.

Price £650

Wanted  Found – Coromandel or similar (Posted Oct 2017 Found Nov 2017)

I’m in the market for a junk-rigged sailboat, and the Coromandel is at the top of my list of candidates! Here’s a list of the things I’m looking for 🙂 :

*More or less ready to sail. I don’t mind if it needs cleaning, painting, a new toilet, a new radio or even a complete rewiring, but if it needs full-on structural renovation then I’m less keen! To put it another way, I’m not so interested in fancy gadgets, perfect paint jobs etc., but the hull, keel, rudder and mast must be in sound structural condition. The rigging should also be OK.

*It needn’t have an engine (though that is nice, of course), but if not, it must be possible to propel it with oars or yuloh.

*Located on or near the coast of Europe (including the British Isles, of course), north of Brittany.

*Bilge keels would certainly be a plus, but other hull forms will be considered 🙂

Depending on where the boat is currently located, it is most likely that I would put it in a nearby marina (or even keep it where it is if possible), do whatever small tasks are required, then sail it away during the summer.

If you – or someone you know – might be willing to sell a boat (of any class) that you think fits the bill, then I would be happy to hear from you
