Welcome to Drascombe Boats. We take great pride in producing a comprehensive range of traditionally styled day and small cruising boats, built with modern materials, offering practical boat ownership at its very best. With 50 years of building examples of our boats with their wooden spars and tan sails, they can be found in many creeks, harbours and lakes around the country and world wide.

Dabber

POA

The Dabber is the smallest boat in the Drascombe range. At 4.72 m (15’ 6”) in length,it is small enough to fit in the family garage but is still big on performance.

Lugger

POA

Where it all began - The Drascombe Lugger, originally designed by John Watkinson in 1965, the Lugger has become synonymous with the Drascombe name.

Longboat

POA

For those who require more room, the greater length and beam of the Drascombe Longboat provides an even roomier day boat than the timeless Lugger… ideal for exploring the coast, or more energetic sailing

Trailers

Whether it is to explore new places, move your boat for maintenance or simply keep her on the drive way at home, the ability to trail your Drascombe with confidence is paramount.

Parrel Beads

The parrel bead is sometimes referred to as a parral bead or even a parallel bead, but they all describe a set of beads threaded onto a rope used to allow a sail or yard to be attached to a mast & slide up & down.

Rigging, Sails & Spars

Like all fittings on your Drascombe, we like to ensure that only the best is supplied by ourselves, stainless steel rigging is supplied for the shrouds, while sitka spruce spars are made in the UK. Our sail maker has been supplying us for many years, all to ensure that our customers only receive the best products available, at competitive prices.
