Spotted this boat on a walk earlier, thought it was quite pretty. Any ideas what it is? Thought it might have been a Contessa 32, but a bit too full in the bow?

Ohlsen?

Wider transom suggests a bit later era than Contessa 32.

The cockpit coaming blending into the coachroof also reminds me of a Zaal design, he designed the Dutch Contest boats I think?

Albin Ballard is looking promising - the window profiles (and the windowless coach roof at the front) seem consistent, along with the pretty transom, thanks smile
