If there are boats that you can see at first glance what they can do, Targa from Finland is definitely one of them - including the new 32.

Police units, rescue services and harbour authorities - throughout Europe, you can rely on Targas in professional use. And since it can be assumed that the authorities place high demands when it comes to performance and robustness, it is not surprising that the boats with the striking deckhouse and the deep V in the foredeck also have a broad fan base among sports skippers.

For years, the bestseller in the Targa family was the 31 - reason enough for the manufacturer Botnia Marin to reissue the successful model, slightly larger, of course. The result was the Targa 32, which was presented to the public this autumn.

The proven, seaworthy hull design and the general room layout did not have to be changed much, but there is still more space in two key areas: in the forward cabin and in the wet room of the aft cabin.

In addition to the steering position and a comfortable seating area, the deckhouse of the 10.78 metre long boat has a second wet room. The large area of glazing typical of a targa ensures the best all-round visibility at sea and when manoeuvring in confined spaces. Another feature is the fully enclosed bulwark with attached railing and handrails for additional safety.

The approximately 6300 kg boat is powered by Volvo Penta diesels: the options range from the most economical version with 1 x 370 hp to a powerful 740 hp when two D6-370s are installed. The top speed is between 33 and 34 knots, depending on the engine, and the cruising speed is between 28 and 36 knots.
