I will probably end up buying a Nicholson 32 because I cannot find a modern equivalent. I have avoided Halmatic moulded hulls for years because they all seem to have the osmosis thing. However as they have nearly all had epoxy treatment I may take a chance.
Before I do I would like to check with you that my short list of alternatives is complete.
Boxes to be ticked are 30 to 35 feet LOA, Medium to heavy displacement, encapsulated keel, solid lay-up (no foam). Keel stepped mast. Professional factory fit-out. Aft cockpit but not mandatory. Go-anywhere.
I have found the following makes tick most of my boxes. Contest 32, Rustler 31, Contessa 32, Rival 32. Nicholson 31,32,35. Trident Challenger.
Are there any I have missed?
Thanks
