The introduction of the Nicholson 32 in 1963 marked the advent of series GRP production boat building in the UK. In the following 20 years the Nicholson 32 would see a total of 11 different marks produced, each honing the design and improving its appeal to buyers. The introduction of the MkX in 1972 saw a fundamental re-design of the hull with a completely new deck moulding. The hull for the MkX was lengthened slightly in aft end with the freeboard increased. The deck and cockpit were also completely replaced with a new design modernising the appearance while improving living space below and providing a larger cockpit, better protected from the elements.

She has proven to be a dependable and loyal member of the family cruising in the waters of Scotland predominately with periods based abroad while cruising in Brittany, France and Majorca. Benefitting from continual upgrading and maintenance her comprehensive inventory includes:
The well known West Coast boat will be departing her home waters of the last 40+years as she heads south to her new cruising ground on the South East coast of England. We wish her new owners many happy years of sailing aboard this fantastic GRP classic cruiser.
