    Keel of Contest 29 anno 1973. The Contest 29 has been built with different keel alternatives. Fin keel. One option is a fin keel.

    Contests are noted for their wood rub strake and large stainless steel stem fitting. The rub strake covers the deck to hull joint. The deck is formed with about a 1' high section of the topside. This makes the deck very rigid and the deck to hull joint very strong and waterproof.

  14. Boat Review: Contest 42CS

    It is modern without being radical, and I think, quite pretty. ON DECK. Contest builds only aft-cockpit designs under 50 feet, because they feel the cabins get too small with a center cockpit.

  16. Contest 48CS & 44CS, Quality BWB?

    Ihave a Contest 38S Ketch rig and have owned her since new in 1982. I woned a 25' Contest before that which showed me the quality of these boats. They are very well built, strong and comfortable AND sail very well. Unfortunately I am having to sell her due to MY age, She is just over 30 and still looks young, unlike me!

  17. Contest 42 CS: A Sailboat for Cruising and Racing

    Because the 42 CS does not have a big stern that projects out a lot, the shoulder width of the aft berths is limited to 4.6 feet. That's the absolute minimum size for a double berth, while length and headroom are fine. By contrast, the size of the double berth in the forepeak of the test boat was ample at 5.67 feet.

  18. Contest 42CS Sailboat Review

    Advertisement. Though it's the smallest boat in the Contest range, which these days stretches to 72 feet, the 42's price tag approaching $700,000 means it probably isn't an entry-level sailboat (the U.S. importer, Berthon, notes the base price for the boat is $525,000). Still, says Contest managing director Arjen Conijn, it is intended ...

  21. Review of Contest 34

    Contest 34 is typically equipped with an inboard Volvo Penta MD2B diesel engine at 25 hp (18 kW). The speed is 7.5 knots. The transmission is a shaft drive. A shaft drive will in the long run require less maintenance than other types of drive e.g. a sail drive. The fuel tank has a capacity of 125.0 liters (33 US gallons, 27 imperial gallons).

  22. Contest 41, a good buy?

    The 41 is a Dick Zaal design. We want a yacht that is good for offshore cruising on the North Sea. It will only be the two of us. We value stability, smooth movements and safety. Any Contest is excellent boat. If the size and price are right there is nothing to hesitate about the builder. One of the best.
