Apart from Southerlys, are there any other 'noted' swing or lift keel
makers?
Just scouting around for a long voyage retirement boat. (read = dreaming at
this stage)
thanks

The Sabre 34 has a keel/centerboard. See, for example:

I've chartered this boat on several occasions, and it's among the best
sailing boats I've had the pleasure of handling. Note that the
pre-1985 models are considerably different from the later ones,
although both had centerboards as options.

Very nice. Most of the 2nd hands are into my price area too. I'll put it
on the 'firm favourites' list.
