The Dragonfly 32 Evolution is a high-performance trimaran designed and built by the Danish company Quorning Boats. It is an updated version of the popular Dragonfly 32, featuring several improvements and upgrades over the original model.

It has a lightweight construction, which allows it to reach speed above 20 knots while maintaining stability and handling in a variety of sea conditions. The boat's design is focused on maximizing performance and comfort, making it an excellent choice for both racing and cruising.

It is equipped with a large sail area and a retractable centerboard and rudder that allows for shallow water sailing. The boat is also powered by a Yanmar diesel engine, providing a reliable backup power source.

Overall, the Dragonfly 32 Evolution is an impressive high-performance trimaran sailboat that offers an excellent balance of performance and comfort. With its sleek design, advanced features, and comfortable accommodations, it is a perfect choice for sailors who want to enjoy fast and comfortable sailing. Personally, it's my favorite production pocket cruiser currently available.

Learning the Lines is a channel about us, an average couple in our 20's, with big dreams to be sailing the world by the time we're in our 30's. We're not afraid to jump into anything, put in the work, and learn as we go. We started out with Somnium, an O'day 272, moved onto Freebie, an Endeavour 32, and now are focusing on sailboat tours and working full time as teachers while we save up for our next boat.

  • It’s been awhile since I’ve really watched any sailing channels reason being at one time not so long ago I was truly close enough to get one but had to give up the dream and gave my mother whom I love with all my heart the money I needed in pursuit of fulfilling my dreams of owning and sailing as you all are doing, but I wanted you and your wife to know how much I appreciate your channel, when I 1st started watching sailing channels yours and a few others stuck out among the many and its great to see your still at it,thank you for sharing all that you do and wishing nothing but the best for you and your family,maybe one day Lord willing before it’s to late I’m hoping to get a chance to experience what you and all the other sailing channels go through, and if any of your viewers are believers please send me some prayers of hope and healing beating my cancer… take care everyone enjoy all that life has given you and make the best of it …
  • Thx for giving us another tri to see! For anyone shopping, there's a beautiful 39' version Dragonfly for sale in San Francisco for about $100k less than this 32' MSRP. And just a little reality check on cruising speeds; this boat ain't gonna go 2-3x faster than the 32' monohull for daily averages. More like 20-25% faster on a multi-day trip. But those extra 2 or 3 knots per hour do add up nicely.

    Great video. Thanks for the tour. I absolutely LOVE that boat! This boat is 10x better than the products from Corsair. Looks super comfortable, safe, livable and I bet sails really fast! That is the boat I shall look for as my next adventure awaits! This boat would do great in the Salish Sea!
  • @BJustChillin420
    Amazing looking boat. Can’t believe how spacious it is on the inside.
  • Nice boat! I sailed one of the 1st Dragonfly 25s to hit the US market and she sailed beautifully even in very light winds that day. The 25 is designed to be a high performance weekender and was very light weight with simple but elegant interior. The Danes know how to build a fine boat. Hey haircut! ;) Quite a different look than last year and I wondered how things are going in CN during your 1st real winter. A big difference than Florida winters for sure.
  • Thanks much for the video tour. The interior styling is very nice and the overall boat is great.
  • @AORD72
    Top quality review. Nice to see the highly detailed specifications at the end. Beautiful boat.
  • You are totally obsessed with the word STORAGE! with is ok ,also opening every closet and door in every boat. Your films are Great,keep up the good work!
  • @TM-tw1py
    A few comments from Cruising World - The Dragonfly isn’t a cheap boat. The base price is $350,000, and the version we sailed had a price tag of about $400,000. But the build quality was impressive, and the equipment and hardware were top-shelf.

    A beautiful boat, i love trimarans since i watched the movie “waterworld” when i was a little kid
  • @macdaddy507

My Fri was built-in Victoria by a man named Harold Aune.I can't wait to get out and get on down the ocean.The tri is named Koyote ( means new beginnings)All the best mac out.🇨🇦🇨🇦🏴‍☠️🏴‍☠️🎶🎶🎙🎙🎤🎤🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🏴‍☠️🏴‍☠️🏴
  • Looks like Paul’s boat - don’t forget the eberspacher heater and the bow thruster- I agree with you the boat is a dream and I wish you could trailer it.
  • @MrNickjberry
    This is the boat I would want. Keep it light and outrun the weather. I want somebody to take it across oceans and make video.
  • @kalbic
    That boat is gorgeous. My dream is to sail the seas in something like this.
  • @spray3716
    You look good with the clean cut style. I love it!
  • @alansmith2203
    I am a trimaran skipper of a Condor 30 footer. She is a good sailor. Her problem is that you have to disassemble/reassemble when trailering her. That ain't no joke man. It is a full days work. Look, this boat is so gorgeous it makes me nipples hard. But she is a heavy boat...really heavy...Look at Multihull Direct out of Subic Bay at their 33 footer...then compare the DF32. Weight is everything in a trimaran. I wrote them a note tonight that said they should make a 30 foot trailerable. You can buy used 40 foot fast cats for less than 250-300K all day long that are outfitted for extended cruising. Take a look at Asia Cats or Schionnings...even Catanas...even Cris White Atlantic cats...you can buy Corsair 37's under 200 K very easily. The price of the DF is for a very wealthy yachtsman that can afford it. Think of the guys who buy Italian supercars...for what reason? Status, girl magnet, bragging rights at the yacht regattas, and speed fixes. Same kind of guy...IMHO
  • @SailProMarina
    Hey Nice Review. Will you Please try and do their 40ft model if you can find one. I am considering the 40' for a Charter business. Thanks.
