The Elizabethan 29 is a seminal design in the history of British production yachting, representing the elegant transition from traditional timber construction to the modern era of Glass Reinforced Plastic (GRP). Penned by the legendary naval architect C.R. "Kim" Holman in 1960 and built by Peter Webster Ltd in Lymington, the Elizabethan 29 was designed to be a fast, seaworthy cruiser-racer that could hold its own in the demanding waters of the English Channel. It quickly gained a reputation as a "miniature classic," often compared to Holman’s other masterpiece, the Twister, for its balanced lines and exceptional heavy-weather performance. During its production run through the 1960s, approximately 75 units were built, establishing a legacy of durability that allows many to remain in active service today.
