Why sailors choose the Sun Fast 3200
The Sun Fast 3200 is a Daniel Andrieu design built to be fast, simple and safe for amateur short-handed offshore racing, with stiffness and stability as top priorities. It comes alive as the breeze builds and can carry full sail far up the wind range, reaching around 15 knots under spinnaker. Its wide, light hull makes it sluggish in very light wind.
- Designed for amateur short-handed offshore racing
- High stiffness and stability, so no crew needed on the rail
- Simple rig and cockpit
- Fast in a breeze; carries full sail a long way
- Struggles in winds under about six knots

What sailors and testers say · in our words, from the linked pages
He aimed for a fast, simple, safe boat for amateur short-handed crews; it thrives as speed builds but finds winds under six knots hard.
designer Daniel Andrieu, in Sailing World · Sailing World, 2009
He argues short-handed boats need strong initial stability because no one is sitting on the rail to flatten them.
