The Dabber.

The smallest of the split-rig Drascombes, the Dabber has all the energy and quality of finish of her larger sisters. A compact 4.72m (15ft 6ins) LOA, the Dabber carries a useful 118sq. ft. of sail with the help of a bowsprit and bumpkin. Both of these can be removed for transport and storage.

When the wind drops, a 2 or 4hp. engine will drive your Dabber without difficulty, or you can row from either or both of the two positions.

The Dabber is a surprisingly roomy family craft and has plenty of storage space. The foam buoyancy, a feature of all Drascombes, ensures that your Dabber cannot sink.

The Dabber can be covered and left on a mooring or hitched up behind a car; with a Drascombe, flexability is the key.
