Design 1508 Columbia 29

The Columbia 29 was introduced in 1961 by the Glas Laminates Company of California. The model was so successful that the company decided to use the Columbia name for a brand of boats and Columbia Sailing Yachts was formed. Over 300 units were built between 1961-1969.
Here are the plans.


A Mark II version was introduced in 1967. Changes were generally cosmetic although 1,000 lbs of ballast was added. Here's an article that explains.

Here are a couple of interior images of a Mark I boat.
