Benneteau First 325 or Jeanneau Sun Odyssey 32

[salignac]

Wondered if anyone could give an opinion on these two. Moving back to the East Coast after years away and need to keep the draft to under 4'9" both the shoal keel beny 325 and the Odyssey 32 would keep me just under this limit but have no experience of the Jeanneau but have sailed the beny 325 before.

Would like a reasonable performance having raced most of my life, however as time goes by and with family to accommodate these days I am looking at the 30' to 32-3 foot range with goodish performance and some comfort.

First of all, welcome! Secondly, you might get more response if you posted in the Scuttlebut forum, more people might see it, the ECF is very select!

Thank you Tam Lin for the welcome and Full Circle. I will put a thread in Scuttlebutt if more responses might be forthcoming.

Got a Jeanneau 32.2 at Burnham. Come and have a look if you wish.

Been to West coast of Brittany and across to the Frisian Islands and Dutch inland waters with no problems.

New sails did make an enormous difference to her performance. PM me for more info if you like.
