Description
The Arran Curragh is generally less well built and with a coarser line that its cousins from further south, but nevertheless, it is a thoroughly seaworthy boat. Propulsion: It has the characteristic blade-less oar and can be sailed downwind but, without lee-boards would have insufficient lateral resistance to allow to go to windward.
History
The boat was built for Dr Tony Fairrie who presented it to the Museum
