Columbia 32

Columbia 32 is a 32 ′ 1 ″ / 9.8 m monohull sailboat designed by William H. Tripp Jr. and built by Columbia Yachts between 1975 and 1976.

Rig and Sails

Auxilary power, accomodations, calculations.

The theoretical maximum speed that a displacement hull can move efficiently through the water is determined by it's waterline length and displacement. It may be unable to reach this speed if the boat is underpowered or heavily loaded, though it may exceed this speed given enough power. Read more.

Classic hull speed formula:

Hull Speed = 1.34 x √LWL

Max Speed/Length ratio = 8.26 ÷ Displacement/Length ratio .311 Hull Speed = Max Speed/Length ratio x √LWL

Sail Area / Displacement Ratio

A measure of the power of the sails relative to the weight of the boat. The higher the number, the higher the performance, but the harder the boat will be to handle. This ratio is a "non-dimensional" value that facilitates comparisons between boats of different types and sizes. Read more.

SA/D = SA ÷ (D ÷ 64) 2/3

  • SA : Sail area in square feet, derived by adding the mainsail area to 100% of the foretriangle area (the lateral area above the deck between the mast and the forestay).
  • D : Displacement in pounds.

Ballast / Displacement Ratio

A measure of the stability of a boat's hull that suggests how well a monohull will stand up to its sails. The ballast displacement ratio indicates how much of the weight of a boat is placed for maximum stability against capsizing and is an indicator of stiffness and resistance to capsize.

Ballast / Displacement * 100

Displacement / Length Ratio

A measure of the weight of the boat relative to it's length at the waterline. The higher a boat’s D/L ratio, the more easily it will carry a load and the more comfortable its motion will be. The lower a boat's ratio is, the less power it takes to drive the boat to its nominal hull speed or beyond. Read more.

D/L = (D ÷ 2240) ÷ (0.01 x LWL)³

  • D: Displacement of the boat in pounds.
  • LWL: Waterline length in feet

Comfort Ratio

This ratio assess how quickly and abruptly a boat’s hull reacts to waves in a significant seaway, these being the elements of a boat’s motion most likely to cause seasickness. Read more.

Comfort ratio = D ÷ (.65 x (.7 LWL + .3 LOA) x Beam 1.33 )

  • D: Displacement of the boat in pounds
  • LOA: Length overall in feet
  • Beam: Width of boat at the widest point in feet

Capsize Screening Formula

This formula attempts to indicate whether a given boat might be too wide and light to readily right itself after being overturned in extreme conditions. Read more.

CSV = Beam ÷ ³√(D / 64)

It has been reported that the COLUMBIA 32 is an extended version of the COLUMBIA 30. Also sold as the CORONADO 32, SAILCRAFTER 32.

and we always just picked a Calalina up at the and took it away for the weekend, then dropped it off. Then before that, growing up, just sailed my folks , never having to rig or fix, or learn. Now I have to.

I've already learned that this boat is a Columbia 32, instead of the 9.6 that it was told to me when to me, by cross referencing the HID (after the sale). Honestly, I am not upset about that and I am certain the Coast Guard will not care and will be corrected on the exchange paperwork and change of healing port, etc.

Somewhere along the line, they've had a "central" heat and ac unit installed in the second closet down the starboard side from the v-berth, using sea and it seems to fine. Not sure, yet, about , but probably only shore, so a for longer runs from the .

Zero running lights, so gotta buy LED's(s) for replacement bulbs?

They've taken the out!!! I will just take on that one. I am Coast Guard Aux and know that I am illegal from the time I leave the dock until I am more than 12 miles out without a . So, any help is great. Somebody recommended a 15 gallon bladder under the sink?

The is a good running 3. I took her out in the ocean for a sea trial and got up to 6.7 knots speed for about 30 minutes, then got the overheat . Dropped down to 3 knots and she caught up. That was with a VERY dirty bottom and I had it cleaned a couple days ago.

No soft spots and is in good condition, but needs below waterline . Also, the through for the wastewater (I think, all of it) has a steady stream leak. So, yes. I will have to haul, soon.

One runs for about 3 seconds, every 30 seconds, which would be that through , plus some .

are all in good shape, but not maneuverable.

is in good shape and operable. Not sure what happens, there, when I get underway.

There is a countertop and microwave stacked in the port cutout. I've been told to put a fridge there and move those to the starboard side, but the seems to fine and takes up a lot of space to just duplicate. Maybe a dual power chest , but uou can put that anywhere.

Anyway, I'm hoping to crank up some input. All I can get. I will provide any pics you want. I do, for sure, need a replacement stanchion. The one right next to where you board on the starboard side, forward.

Thanks for any help!! (not Goin' anywhere)

 every minute is a lot, what happens when or power fails? You don't want to be the guy with the boat under

Lights- I bought regular bulbs for troubleshooting mine, often they are a base (two pins, shell not grounded) and not the automotive ones that look similar. Have you checked if the bulbs are OK and that there is power to the fixtures? LED's are a bit of a hot button: Lower power , look brighter, but not approved as drop-in if you are going 'by the book' (replacement bulb to match original type of bulb used to certify fixture) and some of the lower quality ones throw some RF . Warm white LED's 2700-2900K are a closer match than 5000K cool ones.

 suggests you have a problem in the engine. If the bottom is dirty maybe growth is blocking water intake. My friend with a cooled had a similar issue and we cleaned out the whole engine and it turned out to be the seacock was broken and jammed in a half-way open position. It SEEMED to be opening and closing when we turned the handle but not until we really looked in there at haul-out could we see that.

 then the all will work. If you are going to do any cruising will have to go with a fossil cooker or carry a . Think the advice to swap sides on and involves tearing out the old Ice box and using the space for a gimbaled stove/oven and building a space for a 12v portable frig where the old used to be.

Your is if the discharge through hull is disabled. Have heard of using a zip tie to keep through hull valve being opened but to be safe would go with chain or something that couldn't be cut with a dull knife.

My 3GM30f began overheating about a year after . Thought for sure it was the notorious mixing causing the problem and spent more than $300 changing it only to discover the raw water seacock was blocked by a critter who'd made it their home.

  • Engines: Yanmar
  • Last Updated: Mar 4, 2024
  • Asking Price: $185,000
  • Max Draft: 7' 6''

Sam additional information

Built to custom specifications in the summer of 2013, SAM is hull # 5 out of 6 boats manufactured by Columbia Yachts. She is the fastest, safest, and most complete Columbia Carbon 32 ever built. She benefits from learning derived from the earlier boats and possesses a unique balance of go-fast, ease-of-use, and superior functionality. SAM is also then only Carbon 32 equipped with a carbon mast, carbon boom and rod rigging. SAM can do it all:

Distance Racing

Around the Buoys Racing

Shorthanded Racing

Family / Fun / Beer Can

SAM’ size and low sheet loads make it a perfect boat to learn high performance, almost skiff-like sailing. She will plane under perfect control in less than 17 knots of breeze. SAM is also a very good light air machine due to her low wetted surface and light displacement. She can win in the light stuff or in a breeze. SAM can and has done it all. In ten seasons of racing (7 in the North East and 3 in on the West coast), SAM has amassed an impressive list of wins in buoy, distance, and shorthanded racing.

Once on the west coast, the owner committed to racing to Hawaii in the 2023 Transpac. Although the boat retired 250nm after starting (injury), the boat is fully ready for offshore racing and showed great speed and potential throughout any ocean race. Unlike other small race boats, SAM has enough volume forward to stay above the waves while planning at 20 knots of boat speed. Additionally, SAM has the comfort and efficiency of a functional interior and diesel engine making her well suited for ocean racing – either fully crewed or shorthanded. The Columbia Carbon 32 is light and, with its retractable keel, very easy to transport or store on its custom aluminum trailer.

2013 Yanmar 2YM15. Power: 15hp. Engine Hours ~ 600 hours.

ZERO drag, fully retractable shaft with non-folding 3 blades propeller.
