Eric 32
6 / 28 - score 54%
The Eric 32 is a 32.0ft gaff head ketch designed by William Atkin and built in wood between 1924 and 1926.
4 units have been built.
The Eric 32 is a very heavy sailboat which is under powered. It is reasonably stable / stiff and has an excellent righting capability if capsized. It is best suited as a heavy bluewater cruising boat.
This boat has an average score but ranks in the top quarter. It seems difficult to do much better. It is one of the best possible tradeoff for this request.
