The 3200 is an evolution of 3000 design and has all the popular features as the original with the added interior space. Has kick-up centerboards and transom-hung, lifting rudders. Draft is only 1’ 6” when centerboards and rudders up – great for cruising shallow creeks, rivers and bays, and 4’ 6” when down –for reduced leeway when sailing upwind. Followed by 3400 version in 1993 that added molded transom steps.
