The result is a forward, modern look, plumb bow and angular design with a definite nod towards innovative engineering and maximizing space so much so that this 32-footer offers two staterooms. Of course, with performance also being part of the company’s vision, the D32 Open is fully realized with single or twin 300-hp Mercury outboards. ## Test Results | RPM | MPH | Knots | GPH | MPG | NMPG | SM | NM | dBa | |---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---| | 650 | 2 | 1.7 | 1.5 | 1.3 | 1.2 | 206.4 | 179.4 | 60 | | 1000 | 3.9 | 3.4 | 2.5 | 1.6 | 1.4 | 240.5 | 209 | 64 | | 1500 | 6.2 | 5.4 | 4.3 | 1.4 | 1.3 | 223.2 | 194 | 66 | | 2000 | 7.8 | 6.8 | 6.5 | 1.2 | 1 | 185.8 | 161.4 | 68 | | 2500 | 9.3 | 8.1 | 10.3 | 0.9 | 0.8 | 139.8 | 121.5 | 71 | | 3000 | 11.3 | 9.8 | 14.6 | 0.8 | 0.7 | 119.8 | 104.1 | 74 | | 3500 | 17 | 14.8 | 19.3 | 0.9 | 0.8 | 136.4 | 118.5 | 80 | | 4000 | 25.1 | 21.8 | 20.3 | 1.2 | 1.1 | 191.4 | 166.3 | 84 | | 4500 | 34.2 | 29.7 | 24.6 | 1.4 | 1.2 | 215 | 186.9 | 87 | | 5000 | 41.1 | 35.7 | 28.4 | 1.4 | 1.3 | 223.9 | 194.5 | 84 | | 5500 | 46.8 | 40.7 | 37.4 | 1.3 | 1.1 | 194 | 168.6 | 84 | | 6000 | 53.2 | 46.2 | 46.6 | 1.1 | 1 | 176.7 | 153.6 | 84 | [View the test results in metric units](#) ![](/sites/default/files/DeAntonio-D32-mph-gph-perf-chart-11-26-24.png) ## Specifications | Length Overall | 32' 6" 9.90 m | |---|---| | Beam | 10' 6" 3.20 m | | Dry Weight | 8,598 lbs 3,900 kg | | Draft | 2' 3" 0.68 m | | Person Capacity | 10 | | Fuel Capacity | 171.7 gal 650 L | | Water Capacity | 26.4 gal 100 L | ## Acceleration Times & Conditions | Time to Plane | 7.3 sec | |---|---| | 0 to 30 | 12.5 sec | | Load | Persons & Gear = 600 lbs (272 kg); Fuel = 488 lbs (222 kg); Water = 50 lbs (23 kg); Total = 1,138 lbs (516 kg) | | Climate | 84°; 56% humidity; wind: 3-5 mph/SE; wave: flat; salt | ## ezstandalone.cmd.push(function() { ezstandalone.showAds(103); });## **Compact Performer** #### Captain's Report **De Antonio D32 Open** ### by Capt. Ken Kreisler ![De Antonio D32 Open running](/sites/default/files/De-Antonio-D32-Open-running-1-5-25.png) As with all De Antonio Yachts, the D32 Open features a modern, angular exterior, plumb bow, and maximum use of deck and interior space.## Major Features - Anchor support, anchor, chain, electric winch - Flexteak deck - Deck table - Swim ladder - Exterior galley w/fridge, sink, gas cooktop - Fusion RA60 audio system w/4 speakers - Simrad 12” nav system - Pilot bench seats - AC shore power, cable, battery charger - On-deck shower - Bow and stern cabins - Head w/electric toilet ## Notable Options - Hard top - Flexteak color deck - Stern doors - Rub rail - 3.5kW generator - 10,000 BTU air conditioning - Fusion RA670 audio system w/6 speakers - Underwater LED lights - Bow thruster - Lenco® electric trim tabs - Simrad RS 100 VHF w/antenna ## Vessel Inspection Utilizing the space on a day boat of her size means being able to augment the existing dimensions with the most inventive and creative ways possible to get the most out of her 32.480ft/9.9m length and 10.499ft/3.2m beam. To that end, the design and engineering teams at De Antonio, using all the latest computer design programs along with their own visionary sense, came up with sensible and workable layouts for both deck and the pair of cabins. ![De Antonio D32 Open deck layout](/sites/default/files/De-Antonio-D32-Open-deck-layout-1-5-25.png) Getting from bow to stern, and back again, is made safe and easy with the walkaround deck layout aboard the De Antonio D32 Open. ![De Antonio D32 Open stateroom layout](/sites/default/files/De-Antonio-D32-Open-stateroom-layout-1-5-25.png) Rarely found on a boat of this size, the De Antonio D32 Open has two staterooms and a head just in case an overnight or weekend stay is necessary.### Bow The usefulness of the bow area on a day boat cannot be underestimated and on the De Antonio D32 Open, the space is laid out to enjoy while underway, at anchor, or even taking some time in the dock after a day out on the water. ![De Antonio D32 Open bow](/sites/default/files/De-Antonio-D32-Open-bow-1-5-25.png) The first thing we noticed during our walk-through was how deep the wells are, 21” here, this for safety while relaxing or moving to and from the bow area. The large sunpad, measuring 58” x 68”, allows for several people to use it. ![De Antonio D32 Open sunpad open](/sites/default/files/De-Antonio-D32-Open-sunpad-open-1-5-25.png) The front portion of the sunpad easily opens, assisted by a pair of rams, to reveal a cavernous storage space. ![De Antonio D32 Open anchor locker](/sites/default/files/De-Antonio-D32-Open-anchor-locker-1-5-25.png) Fully forward on the bow is the anchor locker housing the electric windlass and rode. There is also an extended arm roller so as not to damage her plumb bow when retrieving the anchor. ![De Antonio D32 Open wide walkways](/sites/default/files/De-Antonio-D32-Open-walkways-1-5-25.png) Wide walkways, measuring some 14” all the way around, also offer a safe, sure-footed way while onboard the De Antonio D32 Open. ![De Antonio D32 Open step down to helm area](/sites/default/files/De-Antonio-D32-Open-step-down-helm-1-5-25.png) As we move aft, there is a 7" step down leading to the helm area. Those big, rectangular fenders are nicely fit into these holders to either side.### Helm In designing the helm of the D32 Open, the De Antonio engineering team followed the dramatic, angular lines of her exterior. The result is both impressive and workable. ![De Antonio D32 Open helm](/sites/default/files/De-Antonio-D32-Open-helm-1-5-25.png) The centerline helm, with tilt steering wheel, offers a raised console with enough space for a pair of Simrad touchscreens should that be your preference. All switches and controls are within easy reach. ![De Antonio D32 Open bolstered seats](/sites/default/files/De-Antonio-D32-Open-bolstered-seats-1-5-25.png) A trio of stylish, bolstered seats adds yet another dramatic flair to the helm. The captain’s seat is adjustable.### Living Accommodations Just to port of the helm console is the sliding door entrance to the pair of cabins aboard the De Antonio D32 Open. Given her size, this is a particularly welcome addition as her day-boat profile can be extended to weekend or extended time away from home. ![De Antonio D32 Open sliding door](/sites/default/files/De-Antonio-D32-Open-sliding-door-1-5-25.png) With the sliding door wide open, it's three steps down into the living accommodations. Here, the forepeak is set up as a lounge. ![De Antonio D32 Open sofa/lounge space can become a berth](/sites/default/files/De-Antonio-D32-Open-lounge-to-berth-1-5-25.png) Adjusting the sofa/lounge and the space becomes a berth. ![De Antonio D32 Open electrical panel](/sites/default/files/De-Antonio-D32-Open-electrical-panel-1-5-25.png) To port is easy access to the electrical panel. ![De Antonio D32 Open berth underneath steps](/sites/default/files/De-Antonio-D32-Open-berth-1-5-25.png) Looking all the way aft, underneath the steps, is another berth. That zippered compartment on the port side opens to a storage space. ![De Antonio D32 Open head](/sites/default/files/De-Antonio-D32-Open-head-1-5-25.png) Also located here, and accessed through a folding door, is the head with electric toilet. The sink faucet doubles as a shower. Again, a zippered storage space is under the sink.### Cockpit No matter where one looks aboard the De Antonio D32 Open, her design takes full advantage of all usable space including here, in the cockpit area. ![De Antonio D32 Open cockpit](/sites/default/files/De-Antonio-D32-Open-cockpit-1-5-25.png) Seen here, the cockpit offers amidships seating fore and aft of a table with the hard top, supported by sturdy rails and well-placed grabs, providing shade for the area. There’s 30” of gunwale height here. ![De Antonio D32 Open wide walkways and recessed rails](/sites/default/files/De-Antonio-D32-Open-walkways-rails-1-5-25.png) For added safety while either seated here or moving about, wide walkways and recessed rails are provided. ![De Antonio D32 Open galley with sink, single burner stove which can be ordered as an optional electric cooktop, and storage cabinets below including a refrigerator](/sites/default/files/De-Antonio-D32-Open-galley-1-5-25.png) Just aft of the helm is the galley with sink, single burner stove which can be ordered as an optional electric cooktop, and storage cabinets below including a refrigerator. ![De Antonio D32 Open hardtop with electrically operated sunroof](/sites/default/files/De-Antonio-D32-Open-hardtop-sunroof-1-5-25.png) The hardtop offers an electrically operated sunroof. Note the one-piece forward windshield. ![De Antonio D32 Open bench seats with large storage space](/sites/default/files/De-Antonio-D32-Open-bench-seats-1-5-25.png) The bench seats offer large storage space beneath, assisted by a pair of rams for easy opening and closing. The aft bench offers wet storage as it connects with the machinery space. ![De Antonio D32 Open forward-facing bench](/sites/default/files/De-Antonio-D32-Open-forward-facing-bench-1-5-25.png) Flip the front seat and it becomes a forward-facing bench.### Machinery Space Usually, on a boat of this size, requiring an intricate access deck consisting of a lift mechanism to access the space, De Antonio has a much simpler solution. A single, easy-to-lift, one-sided hatch using the table without having to remove the pedestals. ![De Antonio D32 Open machinery space](/sites/default/files/De-Antonio-D32-Open-machinery-space-1-5-25.png) While by no means a stand-up space, there is ready access to all critical areas such as the generator, batteries, strainers, bilge pumps, water tank, and other items.### Aft The aft section on the De Antonio D32 Open does double duty as both a large sunpad, measuring 78” x 66”, and access to the twin Mercury outboards. Without the engines traditionally mounted off the transom, there is an added safety factor for those in the water coming aboard or going in. In addition, while underway, it’s a lot quieter. ![De Antonio D32 Open aft sunpad](/sites/default/files/De-Antonio-D32-Open-aft-sunpad-1-5-25.png) The wide-open space provided by the aft sunpad offers plenty of room to enjoy a day on the water. ![De Antonio D32 Open engine space](/sites/default/files/De-Antonio-D32-Open-engine-space-1-5-25.png) In the open position, with a pair of robust rams facilitating easy open and close operation, access to the engine space is made safe and effortless. Here, a pair of 300-hp Mercury V8’s powers this boat while twin 250-hp motors are available. ![De Antonio D32 Open wet storage space](/sites/default/files/De-Antonio-D32-Open-wet-storage-space-1-5-25.png) This close-up shows the wet storage space accessed under the aft bench seat. ## A Word About Performance Our test boat was equipped with a pair of 300-hp V8 Mercury Verado outboards. With a smooth, easy wind up from idle to 6000 rpm, we hit a WOT speed of 53.2 mph/46.2kn. Our best cruise came in at 41.2mph/35.8kn AT 5000 RPM. Our range at the speed was calculated to be 222.7 nautical miles with a 10% reserve of our 172-gallon fuel capacity. Test day saw calm conditions with no discernable sea to deal with. She handled all maneuvers, including tight turns and straight runs with a sports car feel and when slightly trimming her plumb bow, enjoyed the cornering even more. ## Observations We found the De Antonio D32 Open a well-planned and implemented day boat. With its pair of staterooms and head, it can easily function as a weekender or extended time away from your home dock. It, as with all the models in the De Antonio line up, possesses sharp, modern exterior, including a plumb bow, and contemporary interior styling. Functionality is key aboard this boat with a cockpit offering convenient bench seating, dining table, galley, and plenty of storage space. A large storage compartment is also found under the bow sunpad. She has a walk-around deck design, and a comprehensive list of both standard and premium optional features. The De Antonio D32 Open offers exciting performance with a pair of 300- or 250-hp Mercury outboards. Presenting a forward-looking exterior makes the De Antonio D32 Open a day boat meant to set her owners apart from the others. If you are in the market for a boat in this size and configuration, and one that will most certainly make a personal statement of ownership, set up a visit and sea trial. Your time will be well spent. ![De Antonio D32 Open running](/sites/default/files/De-Antonio-D32-Open-running-1-5-25%282%29.png) **Remember, life is better on a boat!** ## Sea Trial & Features Review Transcript ### Overview Tested on Biscayne Bay with the Miami skyline in the background, the De Antonio D32 features the brand's signature modern aesthetic — sharp angular styling, high freeboard, and a plumb bow. The sea trial highlighted the boat's feature-packed layout and hidden outboard design. ### Specifications - **Length overall:** 32 feet, 6 inches - **Beam:** 10 feet, 6 inches - **Empty weight:** 8,600 pounds - **Fuel capacity:** 172 gallons - **Freeboard:** 58 inches all the way around - **Gunwale height:** 21 inches (interior walkways); 30 inches (cockpit) ### Bow Features & Walkways The bow layout centers on a 58-inch wide by 68-inch long sun pad, flanked by cup holders on both sides and forward-facing audio speakers. **Anchor locker:** Houses an electric windlass and an extended arm roller engineered to project the anchor forward, preventing damage to the vertical plumb bow during deployment and retrieval. **Walkways:** 14 inches wide, with a 7-inch step down into the cockpit, keeping passengers secure behind the high 58-inch exterior freeboard. **Storage:** A large storage compartment beneath the bow sun pad — an uncommon feature for a cabin-equipped vessel of this size, enabled by the high hull profile. ### Walkways, Helm Station & Overhead Dedicated side storage along the aft walkways holds rectangular fenders. Recessed handrails are integrated along the exterior topsides, preserving the flat-sided exterior aesthetic while providing functional tie-off points and secure handholds. **Headroom under the hardtop:** 6 feet, 3 inches. The hardtop features an electrically actuated sunroof with integrated glass accents. ### Helm Configuration - **Instrumentation:** Single 12-inch Simrad multifunction display, positioned to the left of the steering wheel - **Controls:** Digital throttle controls, toggle switches, tilt-base steering wheel, centerline compass, bow thruster controls, trim tab controls, Fusion stereo head unit - **Convenience/seating:** Covered storage cubby with power for phone charging; three helm seats with flip-down bolsters, captain's chair adjustable fore and aft ### Lower Deck Accommodations & Head Three wooden steps lead down into the main living space, offering 6 feet, 3 inches of headroom and customizable multi-color LED ambient lighting. #### Main Living Area & Berths **Forward berth:** Convertible from a lounge setting into a sleeping berth, with 2 feet, 3 inches of overhead headroom. Includes a forward storage cubby, side light switches, and electrical outlets. **Aft berth:** Positioned under the entryway stairs, with 2 feet, 3 inches of headroom. **Storage/panels:** Main electrical panel to port, alongside zippered storage compartments. #### Starboard Head Compartment A wet head, featuring an electric flush toilet, a vanity sink with a faucet that doubles as a handheld shower, and lower storage. De Antonio uses a space-saving rollaway fabric door system to maximize space and preserve an open interior feel. ### Cockpit, Wet Bar & Mechanical Space #### Cockpit & Wet Bar The cockpit features hard-edged, modern styling throughout. Behind the helm seats, a wet bar includes cup holders, storage cabinets, a refrigerator below, and a choice of either a propane or electric stove. **Banquette seating (aft):** A reversible backrest allows passengers to sit facing aft around the dining table, or flip forward to face the helm while underway. Wet storage beneath the seating connects internally to the engine compartment. #### Mechanical Space Access The mechanical space hatch opens directly beneath the cockpit table, without requiring removal of the table or its pedestals. Inside, the compartment provides straightforward access to: - Sea strainers and water tank - Forward stainless steel fuel tank - Diesel generator and battery bank (positioned to port) - Bilge pumps Along the aft gunwales, dedicated recesses house the fuel, water, and generator diesel fills to starboard, with incoming shore power connections and a hot/cold transom shower to port. ### Transom & Concealed Outboard System Aft seating features a 78-inch wide by 66-inch long sun pad. Assisted by gas struts, the sun pad lifts manually to reveal the concealed engine bay. #### Engine Configuration & Propulsion Options - **Test boat configuration:** Dual 300-horsepower Mercury V8 outboards - **Alternative configuration:** Twin 250-horsepower outboards #### Swim Platform Advantages Because the engines are fully enclosed beneath the aft sun pad, the full-beam swim platform (24 inches deep by 124 inches wide) remains entirely open and clear. A pull-out swim ladder is integrated into the center, allowing swimmers full access to the water while remaining safely separated from the propellers. ### Performance Numbers Evaluated on Biscayne Bay with dual 300-horsepower Mercury V8 outboards: - **Top speed:** 53.2 mph at 6,000 RPM - **Best cruise:** 41.2 mph at 5,000 RPM - **Fuel burn at best cruise:** 28.6 gallons per hour - **Fuel economy at best cruise:** 1.4 miles per gallon - **Range:** 222.7 statute miles, retaining a 10% reserve of the 172-gallon fuel capacity ### Handling & Sea Trial Performance During evasive maneuvers and aggressive turns, Captain Shelly and Captain Jim noted that the double-stepped hull and plumb bow give the vessel distinct handling characteristics. Lightening the bow by adjusting outboard trim prevents the vertical bow from digging too deep into sharp turns, softening the entry and allowing the hull to track smoothly through corners. ezstandalone.cmd.push(function() { ezstandalone.showAds(104); }); - [Test Drive](/user/login?destination=/markdownify/node/141983) - [Dealer Contact](/user/login?destination=/markdownify/node/141983) - [Compare to other boats](/boats/compare/141983) De Antonio Express Cruisers, Outboard Cruisers, Luxury Crossovers,
