Gary,
The 29 is influenced by the Gulf 32. Newport Yachts brought the rights
from Bill and were the builders. They put the top half on a Newport 30
hull.... Made a great sailor but no wear near the room of the 32.
The 29 will sail circles around the 32 and is a pretty damn good light
air boat. It is a great boat for the NW. I sail her year round.. With
the inside helm and a Red Dot heater, the PH is very comfortable in cold
weather.
