Summary
Purple Limpet, hull number 956, is a beautifully presented example of the ever-popular Mk2 Cornish Shrimper 19 – a classic gaff-rigged sailing boat that combines traditional charm with modern practicality. Built in 2005 and first launched in 2006, she has been lightly used and carefully maintained, offering a wonderful opportunity to acquire one of the most admired small yachts in her class.
The Shrimper’s reputation for seaworthiness, ease of handling, and shallow-draft versatility makes her ideal for coastal cruising, estuary exploration, and family day sailing alike. Purple Limpet features the desirable inboard Yanmar diesel engine, providing reliable auxiliary power and effortless manoeuvring in harbours and marinas. She is currently ashore on her sought after combination road trailer and launch trolley.
