Attalia 32 Jeanneau

Built by French yacht manufacturer Jeanneau from 1982 to 1988, this 30-foot sailboat represents solid European construction from an era when the builder was establishing its reputation for well-built cruising boats. The Attalia 32 features design work by the respected naval architecture firm Joubert-Nivelt, known for creating practical yet performance-oriented sailing yachts. With a displacement of 7,496 pounds and moderate ballast ratio, this boat strikes a reasonable balance between stability and performance. The fin keel with rudder on skeg configuration provides good directional stability while maintaining decent maneuverability. Her fiberglass hull with balsa-cored deck construction offers both strength and weight savings where it matters most. The masthead sloop rig with 410 square feet of sail area gives the Attalia 32 adequate power for coastal cruising and light offshore work. Her comfort ratio of 17.77 suggests she'll provide a relatively quick motion in seaways, while the capsize screening formula of 2.22 indicates reasonable stability for coastal and protected offshore sailing. With 250 hulls produced during her six-year production run, the Attalia 32 found a solid market among European sailors seeking an affordable, well-built cruiser suitable for weekend sailing and short coastal passages.
