Notes: It is thought that the first of these hulls were made by Beetle Boats of RI. By 1958 it became the GALAXY 32 made by the American Boatbuilding Corp. During the ‘60s they produced nine boats along with Beetle Boats who were reputed to have made several more. A few boats are known to have been built by Coleman Boat Co. The original molds were sold to Metalmast Marine where 5 more were completed in the early 70’s.\nPaceship Yachts of Canada turned out their own version, the PACESHIP 32 (Ad shown in 1966).\n(By 1973, Paceship was calling this yacht the TRIPP 32.)\nDimensions shown are from a Paceship magazine ad in 1966.\n(rig dimensions contributed by a user and not from a sail plan.)
