Wooden Ships Comments on this Selway Fisher ‘Grace Hawar’ longboat
Designed by the well known Selway Fisher company, this example was built by John Holiday on Hayling Island in 1998 for a Dutch client.
This is not a small dinghy, she is a very stable and weatherly boat capable of more than just a trip up the river, she has sailed with 9 people and 2 dogs in the present ownership.
Built in buoyancy tanks and water tight lockers make her a safe boat, Two mast gunter rig gives plenty of sail area for a good turn of speed.
She is able to be launched and retrieved from the road trailer and the rig can be set up by one person making her a very easy boat to handle and sail. She has a full inventory including the outboard engine, compass and anchor and with her lifting centreboard she is ready to go and explore the creeks and coasts.
