The first Corribee was designed by Robert Tucker in 1964. Around 10 wooden Corribees were clinker built before production moved to the fibreglass Mk1 . There are a number of different Corribee Mks – clinker Mk1 then fiberglass Mk1, Mk2 and Mk3.
I believe this example to be a late MK2 or possibly a early MK3, there was very little difference between them, the owner was told when he purchased the boat that the hull was built in 1982 and she was commissioned in 1984. The late Mk 2/Mk 3 has a slightly altered deck with an increased rake to the side decks in way of the cockpit – this eliminates the standing puddle to be found on earlier boats. The lazarette hatch is wider and there is an anchor locker on the fore deck. Below the waterline there is a lot of difference; the hallmark of these later boats is the asymmetric bilge keel (there seem to be very few fin keeled late Mk 2s & 3s). The asymmetric keel is of aerofoil section (shaped like an aeroplane wing) and the intention is to increase lift to windward.

Broker's Comments
These boat details are subject to contract.
How can such a little boats be so famous? It is amazing the amount that has been written about these ocean going – yes ocean going – yachtlets! Everybody who is anybody in the watery world seems to have sailed one around Britain, in fact I think there is queue nowadays, Why? What have they got? What makes them so special? Well when you first see them up close the very first thought is “what a pretty little boat!! The second thought is “what a sturdy, tough looking little boat!” Once aboard, you feel like you are on a much bigger boat – the cockpit is a good size, deep and safe, and looking below the cabin looks pretty roomy. OK, then you realise there is not much headroom and no fridge, microwave or dishwasher, but you still can’t help feeling safe and snug. A friendly little boat – I certainly felt at home aboard!
