Visayan 32' Catamaran (V10)

Deck Plan

With our Visayan stern decks the 32 carries more useful deck area than any other similar sized cat that we are aware of. In addition to the large area, the shallow stern deck beam permits multiple deck lockers for significant stowage volume. A small inflatable or rigid dinghy up to 9 foot can be safely carried as shown without deflating or dismantling and without cluttering up the decks.

Tiller steering eliminates the clutter of wheel and pedestal and allows for simple installation of an inexpensive tiller-pilot, which will steer this design handily. There is good forward visibility through the windows of the hardtop, and when standing you are able to see over the hardtop easily.

A split mainsheet lead to the headsail winches through rope clutches gives excellent mainsail control at minimum cost.

The standard version requires a typical bow cross-pipe and may carry the screecher a-frame we prefer over a single bowsprit arrangement. The economy design sails without the cross-pipe, using a bridle to carry the forestay in to the hulls, which are sufficiently rigid to maintain adequate forestay tension.
