Barbary Dabchick is a 32ft 6in Barabary Ketch class cruising yacht in 1979. She has been the family yacht since 1992, when the arrival of the youngest daughter required a move up from their Jaguar 27.
Dabchick lives on a swinging deepwater mooring in Portsmouth Harbour, at Wicormarine boatyard, a traditional yard supplying moorings and winter storage, a change from the modern marinas!
She is used for cruising in the Solent with annual trips accross the channel to France and the Channel Islands
