Wooden ships Comments on this Clinker Pram Dinghy
Clinker pram dinghy of a very elegant design, built by H. Baumbach & Son of Hayle, Cornwall c.1960.
The history of the boat is unknown, but she would have been built as a tender to a larger vessel, either carried on deck or hung in davits.
Completely refitted by the very experienced owner and finished to a high standard.
The boat could be carried on a suitable sized car roof rack making transport a relatively simple affair, however the dinghy comes with a road trailer for easy transport.
Has been used with a small electric or petrol outboard motor.
Slightly larger than the standard 8’ pram dinghy, she also carries a little more beam making her very stable and practical.
Length 8’6”
Beam 4’4”
