Boat Plans Bolger
Well at least I think that this delightful open, half decked cutter is a Tosher.
Toshers were I believe a common Mevagissey fishing boat, certainly Ive seen pictures of similar boats which were built by master boatbuilder Percy Mitchell of Portmellon, but it could equally be a Polperro Gaffer or Falmouth working boat.
I spotted this one lying to a mooring off Bodinnick Boatyard across the river from Fowey in Cornwall. On the left of the picture below is another Percy Mitchell Tosher "Dolphin" with the white hull, she was restored by Peter Williams of Bodinnick boatyard a few years ago and appeared in Classic Boat magazine.

An original 1930s Percy Mitchell Tosher was offered for sale last year by another Fowey boat builder Marcus Lewis, which in its unrestored form had a similar colour scheme, so this may be the same boat now restored, if anyone has any information please drop me an email.

Apologies for the poor quality photographs, they were taken on a misty morning with the strong sunlight breaking through, thats my excuse, but it was a glorious spring morning.
