RELENTLESS is designed and built by Sydney Yachts. Known for its balance between performance, comfort, and handling, the Sydney 32 was created by the renowned design team Murray Burns Dovell (MBD), who specialize in successful racing yachts. Primarily intended as a competitive club racer, it also offers versatility for comfortable cruising. Its fractional rig setup provides an easy-to-handle sail plan, offering an excellent balance between racing performance and cruising convenience with below deck comfort.

The Sydney 32 narrow sleek fiberglass hull, paired with a fin keel and spade rudder, ensures maximum maneuverability and speed in a range of wind conditions. Its racing pedigree is evident in its handling, with quick acceleration and responsive helm control. She has Grand Prix features like integral carbon fiber chainplates. The chainplates are molded into a one-piece laminated structural grid that incorporates the keel attachment, mast step, engine mount, and rudder bearing as seen on America’s cup boats.

The boat performs well both upwind and downwind thanks to its fractional rig, which allows for precise sail trim and adaptability. She has great speed potential, simple sail handling systems and strong construction with decked rigged to keep loads low, easily sailed by a shorthanded crew. At the same time, she offers comfortable, beautifully finished accommodations, best of both worlds.

While RELENTLESS is primarily racing-oriented, its interior accommodations offer necessary comfort for cruising.

The forward area features an empty forepeak designed to use as sail locker or V berth. Just aft on port is head with sink and storage on starboard.

The main salon offers galley starboard side, equipped with a stainless two burner stove and storage below, stainless round sink, storage space above and counter top entry Frig. Aft of galley, on starboard is a nicely designed nav station with a chart table. Opposite the galley on port is comfy settee with a storage cabinet aft of settee and small settee below. There is also a stylishly designed wooden table that can be installed or removed depending on racing or cruising desires. Halogen interior lights.

To port and starboard of the companion-way in the stern are double quarter cabins that can accommodate four with storage shelves inboard. Forward of the port side is a settee with storage cabinet above. Additional counter space under stairs above engine access.

The interior finish is light, simple and functional. New canvas pocket storage bags are located conveniently in several locations.

RELENTLESS is perfect for the sailor who wants a competitive race boat without giving up some basic comforts for cruising. It’s particularly well suited for people who enjoy dual purpose boats that can switch between competitive regattas and casual cruising.
