Nice boat, very livable but they are so slow. Takes a hurricane to move it. 20,000 lbs on a thirty foot waterline. You have to factor continental drift in your navigation before making a land fall.

Love the boat have you taken it on any Voyages?

I'm aiming to buy a westsail 32 myself and this video shows the amazing craftsmanship put into these boats.
Anyway, do you recommend it as a liveaboard?

Thanks, but that's not my experience. In 10kts of wind you can get up to 6-7kts boat speed pretty quickly. It's a full keel boat and won't match the performance of fin keeled racing boats, but then, it wasn't meant to. Though, they consistently place in their class in races such as the single-handed Trans-Pac.

Absolutely. Many Westsail owners live aboard.
The W32 is a double-ender, and double-ended boats (the stern is pointy like the bow) tend to be wider in the beam than boats with a standard stern. So, there is more room in the main cabin than in most other 32 foot boats.
Mine's up for sale :-)
