The Moorings 32 is a French sailboat that was designed by Philippe Briand as a cruiser for Moorings Yacht Charter for use as a yacht charter boat. It was first built in 2002 and served in the Moorings fleet 2006-2009. The boats are no longer in service with Moorings and many are now in private use instead.[1][2][3][4][5][6]
The design is a development of the Briand-designed Sun Odyssey 32, with a deeper keel.[1][2][7][8]
The design was built by Jeanneau in France, from 2002 to 2005, but it is now out of production.[1][2][9][10]
The Moorings 32 is a recreational keelboat, built predominantly of fiberglass, with wood trim. It has a fractional sloop rig a nearly plumb stem, a reverse transom, an internally mounted spade-type rudder and a fixed fin keel. It displaces 9,700 lb (4,400 kg) and carries 3,020 lb (1,370 kg) of ballast.[1][2]
The boat has a draft of 4.75 ft (1.45 m) with the standard keel.[1][2]
The boat is fitted with a Japanese Yanmar diesel engine of 30 hp (22 kW) for docking and maneuvering. The fuel tank holds 19 U.S. gallons (72 L; 16 imp gal) and the fresh water tank has a capacity of 45 U.S. gallons (170 L; 37 imp gal).[1][2]
The design has sleeping accommodation for four people, with a double "V"-berth in the bow cabin, an L-shaped settee and a straight settee in the main cabin and an aft cabin with a double berth on the port side. The galley is located on the starboard side at the companionway ladder. The galley is U-shaped and is equipped with a two-burner stove, an ice box and a sink. The head is located amidships on the port side.[1]
The design has a hull speed of 7.08 kn (13.11 km/h).[2]
The Moorings fleet of 32s served from 2006 to 2009 and then were sold off for private use.[1]
