The Rival 32 was designed by Peter Brett in around 1971, all the 200 hulls produced being moulded by Marine Construction (Woolston) Ltd., many being fitted out by Southern Boatbuilding. The design was a longer counter sterned development of the 1967 designed Rival 31, and later evolved into the better-known Rival 34 - although actually more Rival 32s than 34s were built. Known as a solid traditional cruiser, with longish fin keel and skeg hung rudder. Many Rivals have made long ocean passages.

This Rival 32 is the best example of its kind that I have seen. I have spent many hours sailing on Rival 32's and found them to be exceptionally sea kindly. This particular sailing boat has been maintained to a very high standard by her meticulous owners. She is ideal for newcomers and seasoned sailors alike.
