The J/32 offers sailing comfort, style, and performance typically associated with much larger and more expensive cruising yachts. Its advanced composite construction, easily driven hull shape, and low center of gravity result in a sailing experience notably superior to other cruising boats in its size range.
Designed for easy sailing, the J/32 performs well with just the mainsail and a small jib, avoiding the need for large genoas, constant sail changes, and the heavy winching often required on displacement cruisers.
The interior is clean, spacious, and beautifully finished. It features a forward owner's cabin, full-length main cabin settees for sleeping guests or seating 4-6 for dinner, and a large working galley. The aft sea-head includes a wet hanging locker, and the full-size navigation table is conveniently located near the cockpit for comfort and practicality offshore. Patriot spent the majority of her sailing in ME and only came down to New Orleans in 2020, where her hull was painted with a gorgeous Flag Blue. She is conveniently located near the New Orleans International Airport (MSY) and moored at the Municipal Yacht Harbor; see the Google map at the bottom of the listing.
