About the BIANCA 320
Also available with a masthead rig. Specifications are from various sources and not confirmed.
The Bianca 320 is a Danish-built cruising sloop designed by Elvstrøm & Kjærulff and constructed by Bianca Yachts. Production records indicate the model was built in 1985, with the total number of hulls built remaining unconfirmed in available data.
- Best for:
- This vessel is well-suited for coastal cruisers and weekend sailors seeking a manageable, moderate-displacement boat. Its fractional sloop rig and 31.99 ft LOA make it accessible for couples or small families prioritizing ease of handling over extreme performance.
- Bluewater capability:
- With a displacement of 9259.42 lb and a capsize ratio of 2.0, the Bianca 320 offers reasonable stability for coastal passages, though its fin keel and moderate ballast ratio suggest it is best suited for protected waters rather than extended bluewater voyaging.
- Comparables:
- Comparable boats from this era include the Beneteau First 323 and the O'Day 32, which share similar fractional sloop rigs and moderate displacement profiles. These vessels offer similar coastal cruising capabilities and cabin layouts typical of mid-1980s European and American production yachts.
