Details
The Sydney 32, designed by Murray, Burns & Dovell, is a versatile performance cruiser that combines high-level racing capabilities with comfort for casual sailing. Built with quality materials, the Sydney 32 offers an exciting, responsive sailing experience ideal for competitive and social racing, as well as weekend cruising. The yacht's design features a narrow entry, wide stern, and a non-overlapping headsail, making it easy to handle even with a small crew of five to six people. Its balanced helm, hydraulic backstay, and spacious cockpit ensure effortless sail handling and precise control. "Groove" is an excellent example of the design and has been a regular competitor in the Hobart racing scene since it was purchased by its current owner in 2015. The vessel has also benefited from significant upgrades including A NEW 2018 MAST AND STANDING RIGGING and NEW 2020 DOVELL DESIGNED RUDDER FOR ADDITIONAL CONTROL (Plus new rudder bearings). This vessel also features a comprehensive sail inventory including DOYLE STRATIS MAINSAIL, FULL SET OF HEADSAILS, SYMMETRICAL AND ASYMMETRICAL SPINNAKERS, AND A FURLING CODE 0. With its versatility and excellent presentation, this vessel presents an excellent opportunity to enjoy the Summer on the water!

Stepping inside, the spacious interior is light and airy with quality timber trims and clean white finishes. To port is a stunning timber dinette, with seating for six in comfort on the neatly upholstered settee. Opposite is the well appointed galley. This is fully equipped with a 12V top loading fridge, stainless steel sink with H/C pressurised water, and good storage. The accommodation is ideal for weekends away with family and friends, or the full race crew. It features a double v-berth forward, two king single quarter berths aft, and a single settee berth in the saloon when additional accommodation is required. The package is complete with bathroom with toilet and vanity.

Outside, the open cockpit is ideal for competitive racing, whilst keeping everything close to hand for shorthanded sailing or leisurely cruising. The quality Harken self tailing winches, highly purchased mainsheet system, and all lines lead aft to the cabin top make for easy sail handling and manoeuvring. The large wheel is a great feature of the Sydney Yachts designs and provides excellent feel for the helm. Having had a complete new mast and rigging added in 2018, and a full sail wardrobe, this impressive vessel has everything you need to put its next owner on the podium!

This vessel is powered by a 18HP Yanmar Diesel Engine. Paired with a saildrive with 2 blade Gori folding prop, it provides 5 to 6 knots of easy cruising.

Presenting in good condition throughout, and ready to race "Groove" presents an opportunity not to miss. Whether you want to enjoy the thrill of inshore and coastal racing, take friends out on twilight races, and still enjoy family weekends away, this vessel can do it all in style and comfort.
