25.01.2022 The Super Shimmy prototype is taking shape in the workshop, built to exacting standards she will deliver a mould for production and then take her place as a demonstrator boat. Based on the popular Shimmy 12, the new Super Shimmy 14 is underway! The new boat incorporates a good percentage of the original Shimmy 12 Kit DNA but she’s longer, wider, fuller in section and will be supplied in GRP only.

06.01.2022 FOR SALE Scruffie Marine, all or parts of it. I’m retiring, I’ve earnt it. After 30 years of innovation and 336 boats sold this iconic and well respected business is in need of an ambitious visionary or syndicate to take it to new heights. The time is perfect for future focussed, zero emission sail and electric boats climate action guaranteed for the times they are a-changin’ new models, new directions, a sea-green new deal with exceptional backup. It’s time to share this post, it’s time to talk or email [email protected] or read our PDF Derek http://scruffie.com/pdf/scruffie_changin.pdf
