1984 Rossiter Curlew 32

The Rossiter Curlew 32, built in 1984, is a well-regarded cruising yacht that blends traditional design with dependable modern construction. Her GRP hull, paired with classic timber joinery to the cockpit and capping rails, gives her a timeless appearance. At the same time, the use of GRP provides durability and straightforward maintenance. Under sail, the Rossiter Curlew 32 is known for being stiff, directionally stable, and reassuring. Because of this, she is a comfortable and capable passage maker in a wide range of conditions. The furling mainsail and furling headsail make sail handling simple, which suits short-handed or single-handed sailing particularly well. Below deck, the layout is practical and welcoming. Accommodation includes four berths, with a double berth forward and two single berths in the saloon. This arrangement works well for cruising, while still keeping the interior open and usable. The interior follows a traditional style, offering good space and a warm, functional feel. Because of this, the yacht remains comfortable for extended time aboard. Storage and layout are sensible, which supports relaxed cruising and longer stays on board. ‘Isobel of Stanton’ has been carefully maintained and upgraded with cruising comfort in mind. A full cockpit enclosure provides excellent protection, while Eberspächer diesel heating extends the sailing season. In addition, a well-equipped saloon and galley contribute to a cosy and liveable environment. Overall, the Rossiter Curlew 32 offers a reassuring mix of traditional character and practical cruising ability. Because she is easy to manage and comfortable to live with, she suits both coastal cruising and longer passages. The yacht is currently ashore at Mylor Yacht Harbour and is available for viewing by appointment. Please contact our Falmouth office for further information. The Rossiter Curlew 32 is a lovely example of a traditional cruising yacht done properly. ‘Isobel of Stanton’ feels solid, safe, and easy to manage, with upgrades that genuinely improve comfort aboard.
