Broker Remarks
A lovely example of this classic heavyweight long-keeled cruiser from the drawing board of Peter and Charles Nicholson. Nicholson 32’s have a well-deserved reputation for good sea-keeping ability. They are well-balanced and easy to sail. “Morning Sky” has been owned by her current owner for 4 years. Her previous owner carefully maintained and improved her for 35 years. “Morning Sky” has been laid up ashore each winter. With her increased storage space she is well set up for long distance cruising.
