David Sadler, designer of the legendary Contessa 32, designed the Sadler 32 as a "modern replacement" in 1979. The boat proved immediately popular, and a smaller Sadler 29 followed two years later, this adding "unsinkability" to the design features.

The design sold well, with nearly 400 built by Sadler Yachts between 1981 and 1988. A few more were built later in the 1990s, by Rival Bowman, who bought the moulds and rights to the design.

The Sadler 29 has an excellent reputation for handling and vice-free performance. 'Yachting Monthly' reviewed the design and commented "....It would be hard to find an easier boat to sail, and she feels as though she could cope easily with bad weather".
