Asking $ 42,500


 Additional Specs,Equipment and Information

From the pen Of W.I.B. Crealock "e;ANN"e; is an extremely heavily built traditional double ender. The Dreadnought 32 design closely resembles the design of the original Tahiti Ketch. This original design was by John Hanna in 1928 and was approximatley thirty feet in length. The design really "e;caught on"e; and approximately 3000 were built in wood throughout the world. In the late sixties a yard near Santa Barbara, Ca bought the rights to manufacture the yacht in fiberglass from the designer's widow.


According to naval architect, Mr. W.I.B. Crealock, the manufacturer engaged him to correct an apparently under canvassed Tahiti Ketch sail plan. He designed the Marconi sloop and the ketch versions with increased sail area from 550 sq ft to approx. 800 sq ft. According to former Dreadnought Boatworks employees an old wooden Tahiti Ketch hull was used as the original source to construct the mold to manufacture the fiberglass hull.

The manufacturer also enlarged the vessel to 32 feet,improved the sailing characteristics, and revised the accomodation plan. Subsequently, during a period of about ten years, 83 hulls were produced. Dreadnought 32s were offered in several stages of completion;from hull only; hull with a fiberglass deck; and to a completely finished vessel. Sister ships have accomplished several circumnavigations and the design is considered very "e;blue water"e; capable.
