Wing 34 yacht - anyone know anything about them ?

[Boo2]

Hi Chaps,

Yes, another one...

I'm trying to find out about the Wing 34 yacht, but all I can discover is info on what I think is a completely unconnected boat the Wing 25.

Any information gratefully received,

Boo2

Wing 30?

The Wing 30 (like the 25) was originally built by A V Robinson but unlike the Mudie/Van de Stadt 25, the 30 was designed by M J Sutcliffe.

LOA 30' 7"
LWL 24'
Beam 10'
Draught 4'6"
Displacement 13,216lbs
Ballast 4700lbs
Sail area 430sq ft

Introduced in 1970 as sloop or ketch according to Dayton's Guide to Yachts of Yesteryear. Doesn't mention a Wing 34 I'm afraid.

The Wing 30

Nope, definitely a 34. Thanks for the suggestion though,

Isn't that the French one with the canting rig/keel assembly?

Nope. Fixed rig, fixed keel. Keep 'em coming

If thats the one then it is probably the only one in the UK so doubt anybody but the owners will know anything about it!

hi boo
i would put it in the same category as the val 35 you were looking at
not really your cruising option
but it doesnt need just so many bums on the rail to get to windward

That's a Fan, isn't it?

now thats the type of yacht i like lost the rig on one and seen another go over the side closeby but they are still a great sailing boat if you can afford the upkeep

It's an Italian design with a Kevlar/resin hull...
