The Nicholson 1/2 Ton (often identified as the Nicholson 30) represents a pivotal moment in the heritage of Camper & Nicholsons, marking the builder’s transition from bespoke luxury timber vessels to the competitive and burgeoning world of GRP production racing. Designed by inhouse naval architect Raymond Wall in 1972, the model was conceived as a development of the successful 9.5meter Brigand. It was purposebuilt to the International Offshore Rule (IOR) Half Ton rating, a category that defined a generation of "levelrating" racers. While the Nicholson name was already legendary for America’s Cup challengers, this 29foot cruiserracer brought that pedigree to a wider audience of club racers and coastal cruisers.
