The Nicholson 35 stands as a testament to the "golden era" of British fiberglass yacht construction, a period when the Gosport-based yard of Camper & Nicholsons transitioned its legendary craftsmanship from wood to glass-reinforced plastic (GRP). Designed by Raymond Wall and introduced in 1971, the Nicholson 35 was conceived as a robust, long-distance cruiser capable of handling the rigors of the English Channel and beyond. During its 14-year production run ending in 1985, approximately 160 hulls were completed. Unlike many contemporary designs that prioritized interior volume at the expense of seaworthiness, the 35 remained a traditionalist's vessel, characterized by a deep-chested hull, a moderate-to-heavy displacement of roughly 7,200kg (15,875 lbs), and a high ballast ratio that yields exceptional stiffness.
