Cavalier 32 "Rani" JUST LISTED
$49,950
The Cavalier 32 (or Cav32) has a remarkable history and is known and respected throughout the yachting fraternity as a capable, versatile cruiser/racer, arguably the best (all-rounder) in her class. The Cav32 is a proven performer in all conditions, upwind and down, whether in heavy offshore seas or sheltered Channel waters, cruising or club racing, these strongly built (and pretty) boats are safely and easily handled by a couple or small family. Fine performers under sail, yes, but the Cav32 with their deep-sheltered cockpits (Rani has a substantial spray hood), spacious, welcoming saloon incorporating a full-service galley, dinette, comfortable quarter berths, double V cabin and private head offer all the comforts.
We confidently say that “Rani” is the finest Cav32 we have seen... In ALL respects, including general presentation, attention to detail and the level and quality of fittings and equipment (electronic and general). Auxiliary power is delivered efficiently and economically by the 23.5 hp Kubota marine diesel engine, which underwent a major engine-out overhaul in the winter of 2024. The current owner has a long boating history and association with Tasmania's marine industry, his care and maintenance of "Rani' can be described as fastidious. She is reluctantly offered for sale. 'Rani' represents a rare and exciting opportunity for you and your crew to step aboard and go sailing.
