Launched in 1946 in the Moreton Bay area in Queensland, “Charimba” is in need of loving attention, and a good home!
Like many a mature lady, she has a number of issues, the major one being the engine. It will either need replacing or extensive overhauling.
She is currently moored in Main Beach, on the Gold Coast.

Renewed spark plug, decals and rings only, the rest is just spit and polish.
Handles a 12’ timber sailing dinghy with ease.
Call me anytime to inspect at Altona, Vic.

Happy to pay a fair price for a small sail and spars. I am developing a 3.6 m sailing canoe and am looking for the gear to power it.

An older Opti rig looks like a good fit but will consider anything with about 3 sq metres of sail area. 

Any donations of old spars and fittings in any condition would be gratefully received because there is a bit of fiddling and experimentation required.

Please call Tony O’Neill on 0419524197

Beautifully handcrafted small wooden sailing boat. Classic design. Excellent condition. Ready to sail. Includes: boat, trailer, sail, all needed rigging, 2x oars, 2x self-inflating lifejackets, 2x flares, EPIRB, anchor+rope, travel/outdoor whole boat canvas cover and more.
Sleek and easy to handle, this 4.66M boat is great for beginners and old salts alike.
This little daggerboard boat will row and sail with ease. She's light, simple, quick and responsive whether rowed or sailed. The Skerrieskiff 15 is light enough to be dragged over wet grass and shallow enough to glide up onto the beach.
Designed by renowned boat architect Iain Oughtred in Scotland, she was professionally handcrafted in Canberra, Australia in 2014.
For sale at $4250.

“Alice May“ is a very charming “Sunday” boat built by Sydney Wilson in 1927 for his private use. He was one of the three Wilson brothers who continued the great name of the Wilson boatshed in Cygnet , Tasmania

"Alice May" is a 30 feet Huon pine carvel built, with a portable toilet. She is well maintained, having yearly antifoul & motor service. It does now need an inside paint & floor but is in excellent shape.

The owner regularly goes out for 5 days at a time & loves every moment.

Price: $36,000.
