The Cornish crabber is a 17.0ft gaffhead sloop designed by Roger Dongray and built in fiberglass by Cornish Crabbers since 1989.
The Cornish crabber is a moderate weight sailboat which is a good performer. It is very stable / stiff and has a low righting capability if capsized. It is best suited as a day-boat.
