Worth knowing
Amble Boat Company Ltd.; cover, cost and conditions
Amble Boat Company is based in Amble, Northumberland, where the River Coquet meets the North Sea. The company was registered in 1995, but the site on Coquet Street is far older: around 1860 William Turnbull set up a boatbuilding yard there, which later became J&J Harrison, builders of cobles. The coble is the traditional open fishing boat of the north east coast, with a high bow and a flat stern made for landing on a beach. Amble Boat Company still builds and repairs these boats today, along with leisure and working craft. The yard also offers wooden boat repair, rigging, lifting, storage and craneage.
Our model records hold one design for Amble Boat Company Ltd.: the Leeward 18 motorboat, built from 1998 to 2008 and six metres long. No line reaches into recent build years. Our sources give no further detail on the Leeward 18 itself, so the figures come from the model list. A six metre boat can be moved on a road trailer and suits the short distances of a small harbour town like Amble. The youngest boats in this line are now almost twenty years old, the oldest around thirty. Anyone looking for a Leeward 18 will find one only on the used market.
A small motorboat of this age is simple to inspect but rewards a careful look. Check the transom around the engine mounting for cracks or soft spots, and the hull bottom for damage from beaching or trailering. The outboard deserves a compression test and a look at its service history, and the steering cable should move freely. Boats used on the North Sea coast live with salt, sand and cold water, so fuel lines, electrics and trailer bearings wear faster than on inland water. A sound trailer with working lights and brakes matters as much as the boat.
