Boat Plans Bruce Roberts | Harrac

Boat Plans Bruce Roberts


The first time I saw Harrac must have been the summer of 2007 or it might have been 2006, she was backing off of the fuel berth at Moodys marina on the Hamble and she irresistibly caught my eye in the same way that you cant help noticing pretty girl.



She was designed by lan Pape as a Yawl and built by Curtis and Pape at Looe in Cornwall in 1981 with single skin carvel construction of iroko on oak, teak decks and cockpit.

LOA: 13.7m (45 0")
LWL: 10.0m (33 0")
Beam: 3.86m (12 9")
Draft: 2.06m (6 9")
Displacement: 14.145 tonnes




In 2007/8 Harracs skipper, Angus Cater set out to sail from UK to Smith Island, Antarctica. The objective was to make the trip in memory of Simon Richardson and Bill Tilman, both had died attempting an expedition in 1977 to climb Mount Foster on Smith Island.

The journey was 18,500 nautical mile, and took her down to the Cape Verde islands, across the Atlantic, through the Panama Canal, and then down the west coast of South America to the Magellan Straights.

Sadly, due to delays, problems with the boat including a near sinking, the narrow window for getting to Antarctica in the brief summer season was lost, but Harroc returned safely visiting Brazil and the Azores.
