The UFO 27 is a quintessential product of the 1970s IOR (International Offshore Rule) era, representing a successful collaboration between the renowned design firm Holman & Pye and the manufacturing might of Colvic Craft. Conceived during a period when racer-cruisers were beginning to dominate the European market, the UFO 27 was designed to offer competitive speed on the racecourse without entirely sacrificing the utility required for coastal cruising. While Colvic Craft molded the vast majority of the hulls and decks, a significant number of these vessels were finished by Landamores of Wroxham, which often resulted in a higher standard of interior joinery than the home-completed versions that also entered the market. The yacht’s lines are classic for its period: a relatively narrow beam by modern standards, a distinct tumblehome, and a pinched stern, all of which contribute to its distinctive profile.
