La Mouette, Fowey River 26, is a wooden clinker-built dinghy built around 1963. Fowey Rivers were originally designed as a family knockabout boat and still make a lovely family boat for river or inshore sailing. A fleet of Fowey Rivers are based in Fowey, Cornwall with a very active and friendly series of races, championships and regatta.
La Mouette has been professionally maintained for many years and is in very good condition. Recent works include a stainless-steel centre plate, improved kicker and an improved and easily adjustable shroud set up. New jib in 2022. Last year’s maintenance covered revarnishing topsides, transom and gaff, as well as re-painting hull.
She is currently kept in a boat-builder's workshop near to Fowey, Cornwall.
