Cap-Corse

Marc Vuilliomenet also builds the "Cap Corse", a well-known and easily recognised mahogany strip planked sailing boat, designed by Jean-Jacques Herbulot.

The strength of the epoxy strip planking, built under vacuum in Marc's workshop, is a guarantee of consistent construction quality and easy future maintenance.

Designed by Jean-Jacques Herbulot in 1957, the Cap-Corse is a small familly cruising boat. Built of cold-molded mahogany strip planking on solid mahogany frames, her bulkheads and deck are made of the finest quality marine plywood. Marc's vacuum-molding technique ensures the result is both resilient and long-lasting.

Safety wise, the Cap-Corse is rendered unsinkable by her sealed compartments located under the beds and cockpit.

Easy to maintain, the Cap Corse built by Marc Vuilliomenet is finished in high quality marine varnish throughout.

The fully varnished finish appeared to be the only available option folowing the quality of the timber selected and used. In order to keep the design simple and effective, Marc uses hardwood throughout the vessel.

The Cap Corse is easily transported behind any car and launched on any slipway from her custom road trailer.

Easily transported on a road trailer, this coastal cruising boat with a displacement of 600Kg is certified for 4 passengers in Category D or 2 passengers in Category C (French legislation).
Fitted as standard with four berths and two wardrobes, the Cap-Corse can also be fitted with a galley and a head.
With a draft of merely 56cm, she can explore the narrowest creeks and is a pure pleasure to sail.
