Notes

Probably based on the original ISLANDER 32 (1963) with a different rudder, coach roof and bowsprit added.
(A new rudder profile itself, almost certainly, was influenced by that of the 12 meter 'Constellation' that successfully defended the America's Cup in 1964.) Sold also in kit form as the YACHTCRAFT 34.
