On show will be the ever popular super quality built" Original Devon Lugger" which is fitted with all bronze, 8" cleats -bronze horse and traveller and fairlaeds.

This family size day sailing boat is so easy to launch and retrieve and is certified to carry 7 adults (7 x 75kilos)
.
 

The Lugger will be on the very much sought after Euro Trailer which is designed and built by Honnor Marine.With its 16 roller swing cradle action it is so easy to use. The trailer comes with the AL-KO Unbraked Axle which has waterproof bearings with a five year unconditional warranty.

Advantages;
It has a sealing ring for the front hub cap;
Special radial sealing ring with dual lips provide a compact grease chamber;
Special protective grease compound inside radial sealing ring protects bearings against water ingress.
Impact guard protects the radial sealing ring from damage caused by dirt and the use of high pressure washers.
The trailer also has a locking hitch which gives higher security and our insurers G B Brown of Padstow Cornwall highly approve of this.

In January Bob and Norma met Mr and Mrs King from Whitby to hand over their new Racing Green Dabber "ALICE".
The Dabber is still a very popular boat certified for 5 adults; also easy to tow and launch on Honnor Marines specially designed trailer.

Please note that Honnor Marine offer a service to customers old and new should you require a name putting on a boat;


A choice of letter style and colour is available for a very keen price.

This is " LILY" one of Honnor Marines Luggers fitted with a Spray Hood;

It was unfortunately not very good weather the day we met Patrick Andrews with his Lugger "MARCO" at the Gretna Green Services, but his family were very pleased to take delivery ready for the sailing season in Girvan.We hope this years summer weather will be good to enable them plenty of sailing hours.

John Englands White Lugger was delivered to his holiday home in Anglesey; a bit of a tight squeeze to manouvre "KATIE" into his driveway but with plenty of help from friend John Price and Bob we made it;
WE WISH HIM AND HIS FAMILY MANY HAPPY SAILING HOURS
.

 

Mr and Mrs Richard Varley of Bath ordered their Lugger with a full Racing Green Hull and Cream Deck which looked really well with all the bronze fittings;


another bit of a squeeze to get "SELKIE" into the garage which Richard now has to restyle!

 

What a pleasant surprise when we arrived with Nigel Greens Oxford Blue Topland Lugger "HOTSPUR" at DENSTONE COLLEGE in Uttoxeter.

This magnificent day/ boarding school was something to be remembered.

Nigel was the maths teacher who had been teaching there for over 23 years. He was thrilled with his boat and couldn't wait to go for a sail.
Bob and I wish him all the best.
 

What a happy man! Bert Draaijer (aged 75 years! ) travelled all the way from Schienmohnikoog Holland via Hull to Heywood to collect his Scaffie which was built with an Oxford Blue Hull Cream Deck for him.
Having sailed all his life in big boats he told us that after much research he had decided that the Scaffie at 14ft 9" was the ideal boat to retire with.
A total of over 900 kilometers was covered by him but what a smile he had when he saw his boat! He said the journey was well worth it.

He went home a very happy and contented customer.

 

Meanwhile Dirk Uys "Dirkie" our boat builder from Cape Town is working hard alongside our staff building our new boat The CapeCutter19.
With orders in until October 2005 we are going to keep him busy.

 

 

 
A further 4.000 sq ft of premises have been secured to house the expansion taking place at the boat yard and Honnor Marine will continue to give the service
required in supplying customers with boats and spares to their best ability.
