About the FREEDOM 32-2
The Freedom 32-2 is a fractional sloop designed by Freedom Yachts and built by Tillotson Pearson Inc in the USA from 1992–1999. With a displacement of 7660.0 lb and a beam of 10.75 ft, this model represents a specific era of American production, though the exact total hulls built remains unverified in available data.
- Best for:
- This boat suits coastal cruisers and weekend sailors who prioritize a free-standing rig for easier maintenance and a comfortable interior layout. Its moderate displacement and comfort ratio of 18.38 suggest it is well-suited for protected waters and short offshore passages rather than heavy-weather ocean crossings.
- Bluewater capability:
- With a capsize ratio of 2.18 and a displacement/length ratio of 208.19, the Freedom 32-2 is primarily designed for coastal cruising rather than serious bluewater passagemaking. Its fin keel and relatively light displacement suggest it is best kept within sight of land or in well-protected offshore routes.
- Comparables:
- Comparable boats from this era include the Pearson 303 and the Cal 32, which share similar fractional sloop rigs and displacement ranges. These models offer similar interior volumes and performance characteristics, making them direct competitors for buyers seeking a 30-foot cruising sloop.
