The Vineyard Vixen 29 is a distinguished double-ended pocket cruiser that captures the aesthetic of the traditional wooden era while utilizing the durability of fiberglass construction. Designed by the renowned naval architect Thomas Gillmer—famed for the Westsail 32 and the Allied Seawind—and built by the Martha’s Vineyard Shipyard, the Vixen 29 was produced from the early 1970s through the mid-1980s. With its graceful canoe stern, sweeping sheer line, and heavy-displacement hull, the vessel was intended for sailors who prioritize sea-kindliness and timeless lines over raw speed or interior volume. Approximately 30 to 40 hulls were produced, making it a relatively rare find on the brokerage market, often concentrated in the waters of Southern New England.
