nantucket 33

[Guest]

Does any British sailor know about this type of classic yacht? GRP-hull, wooden deck, top etc. Built in Holland, Huisman yard, I think. What I do not know is:
- Keel and rudder configuration,
- Type of hull,
- Displacement/ballast,
- Height above water level,
- Sailing qualities, etc
I'm looking forward to read about your keen knowledge and allround experiences!

There is a NAntucket 33 which was designed by American, Alan Gurney but I thought that was only built over there. I know no more about it, I am afraid.

Alternatively, there is the Nantucket Clipper which is 31ft LOA, designed by Alan Buckanan and built in Britain by Offshore Yachts International during the early and mid seventies. Might this be it? If it is, post again and I will log the details
