Description
This is a lovely, beautifully presented, and hugely equipped example of the Cornish Crabber 24 Mk V. This four berth cruiser offers old world charm, yet with an up to date design that is both easy to handle and fun to sail. The comfortable accommodation allows for extended cruising. The cockpit is huge for a yacht of this size, and the layout of the running rigging ensures it remains clear for your crew and guests. Below decks accommodation is light and spacious with a proper galley and a full sized heads compartment.
The very comprehensive inventory includes heating, hot and cold running water, electric anchor windlass, AIS and much more. The mooring on the River Dart is paid until March 31st 2026.

Owner's Comments
We bought "Oystercatcher" in late 2021 to enjoy with our family on the River Dart, where her lift keel has been perfect for exploring the local waters.
She’s been a real pleasure to own — well cared for, regularly serviced, and stored indoors each winter.
We’re now looking for a slightly larger boat to take us on new adventures, but we’ll be sad to see her go.
We're happy to offer the use of her mooring to the new owners until the end of March 2026 (the Harbour Authority has agreed to this in principle).
We hope she brings as much joy to her next owners as she has to us.
