1985 Freedom 32
The fine sailing performance of a sloop rig combines with the ease of cat boat design to make this 32 the best cruising rig available.
The cat sloop rig is designed to sail in perfect balance under mainsail alone, something the conventional sloop never quite does. The small, self-tending, self vanging jib adds a degree of windward performance you'd never coax out of a straight cat. Yet it does so without adding the extra effort that most headsails require, because it's completely controlled from the cockpit.
Whether you're underway or at the mooring, there simply isn't any lack of comfort here. With standing headroom of 6'3" and 12'3 beam, the Freedom 32 is a big 32 footer. Nowhere is this more evident than down below. There are two totally private sleeping cabins, one very sociable main area, a workable galley and nav station and hot and cold pressure water with shower. The Freedom 32 is proof positive that a modern underbody, plus an innovative rig can provide stimulating cruising performance without a single sacrifice in comfort or ease of handling.

The Freedom 32 with it's "Cat Sloop" rig and and sail plan sails well under all points of sail with either the main alone or self tacking and self "vanging" jib sail. The integral wishbone boom with the jib makes sailing wing and wing a snap without need for a wisker pole. For extra downwind performance you have the option of flying the "Hoyt Gun Mount" spinnaker that can be fully deployed from the cockpit and takes the anxiety out of spinnaker use. The interior is a wonderful space full of Teak and nice fabrics that can sleep four in to separate cabins. The salon features a nice curved dinette, full galley and a stand up navigation station.
