Denman Marine - For Sale

Shellback Dinghy - Brand New


Last year we built one of the famed Joel White designed Shellback dinghies for a client who now has placed the boat up for sale due to a change in circumstances.

Construction is clinker/lapstrake ply with laminated celery top pine backbone and huon Pine fitout. 

This boat is a little different from the plans in  that she has built in byouyancy tanks, teak bottm boards and huon pine transom and rudder.

The boat comes fully finished with painted hull, varnished brightwork, classic cream lugsail and custom oars.

These boats perform very well under oars or sail (a small lug rig) and are perfect for getting out on the water for both older and younger sailors alike. If you are interested in purchasing this boat, please contact us or call on 0413765984 for further details.

12' Fazackerley clinker dinghy for sale

One of our clients has asked us to list "little Chook" his beautiful 12' Reg Fazackerley built clinker dinghy.  We restored this boat for the current owner a few years back and she is a delightful fishing/pleasure dinghy.

She is planked in king billy pine on Huon ribs with a NZ Kauri transom.  She has a refurbished reliable 4hp seagull outboard. During her restoration all paint and putty was removed, a new transom frame, 7 new ribs and a couple of plank splits were repaired. The boat has been re-painted and the bright work has been oiled for lower maintenance.  There is a wonderful age patina where she is finished bright and the rear Huon thwart is just stunning.  She now has a new lease on life for another 20+ years. To build a boat such as this today and fit it out with what it is offered with would cost in excess of $22,000.This boat is offered with a registered trailer, 4 HP Seagull outboard, safety gear for sheltered waters, oars & rowlocks plus anchor, chain and rope. A fire extinguisher is fitted for safety when the engine is in use and there are two rope fenders in keeping with the boats heritage. The boat also has a tailor made canvas cover made by a local sail maker. This magnificent piece of Tasmanian maritime history is available for purchase at $12,000.
