| The Nicholson
32 was created from the drawing
board of Camper & Nicholson in the 1960’s and
was the first of the production yachts built in GRP. The design
parameters were good weatherly sailing performance, moderate size.
safe and easy handling, high quality but easily built and, not least,
good value. The all GRP concept was the result including interior
ballast, forming a strong homogenous structure. The yacht has many features which are accepted as standard today. She has adequate head room, was lined throughout, properly ventilated, modern toilet and galley facilities, good insulation, everything that made lift afloat acceptable to the ladies! The men had her strong, well balanced rig, carefully design cockpit and her exceptional sailing ability in all weathers. The production of the Nicholson 32 ran for 20 years up to 1981 when it was decided by Camper and Nicholson that a further update was not commercially viable. |
