Underpinned with a proven commercial hull from the Suffolk 32/35 fast fishing boats John Perryman refined the design with a new deck and cockpit moulding to create a voluminous 32’ft semi-displacment cruiser. Proven to be a capable seaboat the design offers walk-round side decks, a deep, well-protected cockpit, light and spacious deck saloon with two twin cabins, a galley and heads.
Reportedly serving as a club committee vessel in her early years the Crown Fletcher 32 SASSANNACH has been based on the west coast of Scotland in the current ownership and has proven to be a comfortable and versatile cruiser. Here inventory includes:
2x Mermaid Turbo Four, 200hp, marine diesel engines
Sidepower tunnel mounted thruster
Vetus pod type, transom mounted thurster
Bennett trim tab system
Raymarine autopilot system, ST6002 control headn X10 SmartPilot course computer, type 1 hydraulic drive pump
Raymarine C120 Classic chart plotter and radar with 2kw Raymarine radar scanner
Raymarine ST60+ navigation instrumentation

Lying afloat on her berth at Kerrera Marina the Crown Fletcher 32 SASSANACH is available for viewing by prior arrangement.
PRESS REVIEW:
‘We liked the new Crown Fletcher immensely and, judging from many positive comments at the Show we are not the only ones.
The reasons are not hard to fathom: an obvious sea-kindly counterance, on the back of a tried and respected working hull, combined with a solid, well-executed fit-out and sound practical touches to a most adequate lay-out. And of course, all this within 32ft.’
