About Ron Holland's designs

Ron Holland has 20 designs in this archive, drawn between 1975 and 1996, and 13 yards have built them. Nobody keeps this one to themselves.

These are heavy hulls, nearly all of them: boats that carry their weight through a sea instead of climbing over it.

The bulk of the work belongs to the seventies, and the archive follows it only as far as 1996.

The range runs from 8 metres, the Manzanita, to 14, the Swan 441.
