I used to skipper a snibby we used her as a pilot launch on the Humber.

When she retired the new owner took her to the Med and several trips on the North Sea.

They are lovely sea boats capable of taking any weather.She has a Gardner Engine.

I think she be up for sale soon owner had a nasty accident using a grinder.He is in his seventies.I still sea her the Prickett in the York Viking Marina.

There is or was a really nice trawler style boat in Cowes, always moored up cream in colour with brown covers for the kayaks and toys attached to it. Not really a fan of trawler styles but always said if I win the lottery I need that exact boat in my life.
