New Traditional Full Keel Sailboats

Which companies still produce traditional full keel sailboats these days? I know Island Packet is one, and who else...?

Re: New Traditional Full Keel Sailboats

Not sure IP would qualify fully as a traditional full keel sailboat but it is likely the closest you will come.There are at least a couple of reasons for this - both of which are pretty obvious.

Well, maybe i should've said 'Full Foil Keel' design. I just would like to learn about other manufacturers who are building sailboats with full keel.
TY for undelining this important detail.

Re: New Traditional Full Keel Sailboats

I think you can still order a Cape George cutter and the Bristol Channel cutter, though the prices may cause head trauma...

With all the used full-keel boats on the market (and some of them like new after a refit), why not look at used?

How about a Vertue..
Bossoms Boatyard has the exclusive rights to build the GRP version of this classic long keel ocean sailing yacht, which is designed and constructed for serious and short handed ocean voyages.

Any special need for this design?
Or just rudder protection?

Re: New Traditional Full Keel Sailboats

I think Cabo Rico boats have full keels.
