About the ATTALIA 32 (JEANNEAU)
Swing keel version also available.
Designed by Joubert-Nivelt and built by Jeanneau (FRA) from 1982–1988, the Attalia 32 is a compact cruiser with a total production of 250 hulls. Its design emphasizes ease of handling and coastal comfort, reflected in its 17.77 comfort ratio and 192.17 D/L ratio.
- Best for:
- This boat suits couples or small families seeking a manageable coastal cruiser that is easy to single-hand, given its moderate displacement of 7496.0 lb and fin keel configuration.
- Bluewater capability:
- With a capsize ratio of 2.22 and a relatively light displacement, the Attalia 32 is best suited for protected coastal waters rather than heavy offshore passages.
- Comparables:
- Comparable boats include the Beneteau First 30 and O'Day 32, as they share similar production eras, masthead sloop rigs, and target the same market of accessible, trailerable cruisers.
