M32 (catamaran)

The M32 (formerly the Marstsrom 32) is a class of sailing catamaran designed by Göran Marström and Kåre Ljung and first built in 2010 by Marstrom Composite AB. The design and production rights were sold in 2013 to Aston Harald Composite AB led by Håkan Svensson and run by Killian Bushe.

Design
The M32 is a lightweight, all-carbon, high-performance, one-design multihull. Each of the two hulls - constructed of carbon fiber over a Nomex core - weighs 82 kg and features increased forward buoyancy to reduce nose-diving. The boat weighs 510 kg overall and carries a sail area of 52 m2 resulting in a very high sail area to weight ratio.

The sail plan includes only a high aspect ratio, fully battened mainsail for upwind sailing combined with a furling gennaker for downwind sailing.
