The Norfolk Smuggler is a 25-foot traditional gaff cutter that serves as the flagship for the "Norfolk" range of classic yachts. Designed by the renowned naval architect Andrew Wolstenholme and built by Neil Thompson Boats in North Norfolk, England, the vessel was conceived to offer the rugged capability of a coastal cruiser while maintaining the aesthetic charm of a 19th-century working boat. Unlike many classic replicas, the Smuggler is constructed using modern GRP (glass-reinforced plastic) for the hull and deck, allowing for a high degree of structural integrity and reduced maintenance. It was designed as a larger, more offshore-capable evolution of its smaller sibling, the 20-foot Norfolk Gypsy, and it remains a sought-after model for sailors who prioritize sea-kindliness and traditional aesthetics over modern racing performance.
