Broker's Comments

Swallows and Amazons sailing at its best, and what could be simpler? The Shellback is a stable lug rigged dinghy, reassuring for the novice yet satisfying for the experienced sailor who will appreciate the speed and responsiveness that led to the Shellback being raced in New England. The freestanding mast makes rigging childs play- just slip the mast in place, hoist the yard with the halyard and tension the boom downhaul. When you are finished sailing, the sail rig stows easily within the hull. A galvanised combination road trailer/launch trolley and virtually brand new sails add up to a package that cost the owner over twice what we are asking for her. A fun dinghy or sailing tender for the larger craft perhaps, the old adage 'smaller the boat, bigger the fun' springs to mind!
