Coronado 32
Description
The Coronado 32 is an American coastal cruiser designed by William H. Tripp Jr., introduced in 1973. Built briefly by Coronado Yachts (a Whittaker Corp. division) until 1974, only about 212 units were produced, making it somewhat rare. It's nearly identical to the Columbia 32 and was also marketed as the Sailcrafter 32 (a kit version). Known for its solid fiberglass construction and roomy interior, it's geared toward comfortable coastal cruising and occasional racing rather than high performance.
