The Rossiter Curlew 32 stands as the definitive expression of Hugh Rossiter’s design philosophy, representing the transition of a traditional British boatyard from bespoke wooden construction into the era of robust, glass-reinforced plastic (GRP) cruisers. Produced between 1980 and 1996, the Curlew 32 was developed as a larger, more capable successor to the Pintail 27, designed specifically for sailors who prioritize ultimate sea-kindliness and structural integrity over outright racing speed. With a displacement of approximately 7 tons (15,680 lbs) on a 31-foot, 10-inch frame, the vessel is a quintessential "heavy displacement" cruiser. Its heritage is visible in its high-volume hull and the meticulous woodwork that defines its interior, a hallmark of the yard’s history in silversmithing and high-end joinery.
