The Nicholson 476 represents one of the final, refined chapters of the fiberglass era for the legendary Camper & Nicholsons shipyard in Gosport. Introduced in the mid-1980s, the 476 was a sophisticated development of the earlier Nicholson 48 hull—a design originally penned by Raymond Wall. To modernize the platform for a new generation of offshore sailors, the firm engaged naval architect David Pedrick to refine the lines and rig, resulting in a vessel that combined the robust, go-anywhere heritage of its predecessor with more contemporary sailing characteristics. According to editorial reviews at Berthon International, only about a dozen of these semi-custom yachts were ever completed at the Gosport yard before the tooling was eventually sold to Colvic Craft, who marketed a variant known as the Bluewater 476.
