Hake Yachts is one of the only builders in the US that produces high-quality and innovative retractable keel sailboats.  With a flip of a switch, the keel can be raised vertically from 6'6" to a mere 20" for trailering or tying up to a shallow water dock.  If a storm is approaching, no problem, just load the boat on her double axel trailer and get her out of harms way. 

Under sail, R 2 Cents is responsive and comfortable.  Her innovative use of space allows plenty of room for friends and family, all in a yacht with a high-quality fit and finish.

Highlights Include:

• Retractable Keel- 20"/ 6'3"
• Yanmar 30 With Only 498 hours 
• 9,000 BTU Reverse Cycle Air Conditioning
• Complete Raymarine Electronics Package (NEW 2013!)

The forward V-berth is roomy and comfortable and is fully air conditioned.  Above the berth is a large opening hatch for natural ventilation.  Walking aft, to port is a large head area.  The head features a separate shower stall and plenty of storage.  Moving aft there is a convertible bench seat to starboard and a large dinette to port.  The dinette can seat four, and can be converted to a double berth with the included filler cushions.  The salon is fully air conditioned.  Aft of the dinette, there is a compact nav station with pop-up seating and a double quarter berth.   To starboard is a well-equipped galley with expandable counter space, deep sink, storage and under counter refrigeration. 

The Galley is massive for a trailerable 32' sailboat.  There is plenty of space for food prep, doing dishes, and food storage.

R 2 Cents is an extremely clean and well-maintained 32RK.   She left the Seward factory with the optional cutter rig setup.  Her sail plan is easily managed in all sorts of wind conditions.  Her retractable keel and rudder open up all sorts of cruising possibilities just not possible with most sailboats.   With the keel up, she can be beached, trailered, or moored in extremely shallow water docks.  These boats are ideal for waterfront homes with shallow water dock access. 

This 32RK is about as clean as they come, and will likely not last long on the market.  Call today to make an appointment to see her in person.  You will not be disappointed!

The premise that lead us to build the first 32RK arose from our desire to have a boat that would suit the water geography of south Florida, where we have vast expanses of quietly beautiful, but extremely shallow water. Our premise became more complex when we also wanted our boat to take us comfortably and confidently across sixty or so miles of open ocean, across the Gulfstream to the Bahamas and Abacos. Once to the islands, shallow draft would again be an important plus. That thinking lead us to the 32RK. The 32RK may be the perfect boat for sailors everywhere wanting to get out of the marked channel and into quieter and less traveled waters, but at the same time, don't want to give up the stability and confidence that a deep keeled boat offers when venturing offshore.She's a wonderful fast cruiser even more compelling when you consider the possibilities offered by the variable retracting keel and rudder. Draft range is between 20" and 6' 6", making it possible to walk to shore from your boat without getting your shorts wet. And with the keel down (there's a lead ballasted torpedo-style bulb at the keel's lower tip), you can go almost anywhere. The possibilities are endless. Aside from its obvious versatility, the 32RK is a fine sailboat. She's sized perfectly for two couples, or for a family with small children. Her cockpit is large and comfortable, side decks are wide and secure and she's designed to be easily handled and sailed by one. Below decks, accommodations are comfortable and intelligently planned , whether for sleeping, sitting and reading, cooking or showering. There's room for four adults and their gear for vacation cruising. The cabin is bright and well ventilated, with eight opening ports and two deck hatches.Like all true thoroughbreds, the 32RK always has performance potential in reserve, but is never demanding. It's a performance/cruiser at its best: total exhilaration when you want it, calm and steady when you don't. Just lower the foils a bit to dial in more stability, and more upwind performance, and draw them up when you want to get off the boat and stretch your legs on a deserted beach.

Need info on Seaward 32

• Add to quote

I do not know the Seaward Eagle 32 very well but the Seawards that I know better tend to be simple boats that are price and shoal draft oriented. Build quality and sailing ability tends to be mediocre to poor, especially considering that these are comparatively recent designs. They tend to be underballasted for thier sail area and draft and so depend pretty heavily on form stability giving them a corky motion. They tend to have quirky details like a helmsman''s station where any water running along the deck will drop into the helmsmen''s lap and instruments mounted where the helmsman can either see the sails, or the instruments but not both at the same time. They tend to have somewhat primitively finished interiors, minimal storage, and simplistic engineering. Jeff  

Are you talking about the retractable keel versions? They draw from 24" to 6''6". I am a little surprised at your experience with the boats as so far my investigation of them has been very positive. The Eagle is a relatively new model for them but looking at the specs it would seem that they are using some top of the line manufacturers with details like all fittings, ports, etc being stainless steel. I appreciate your input however, it will put me on alert should I decide to go further into this boat.  

Hmmm Jeff ??? you are talkig about the same Seawards built by Hake Yachts ? I somewhat like the lines of them, although I would never buy one ( too slow, bad upwind etc ) However, they do have some respectable hardware on board, almost money no object stuff, and they are real expensive, even used ones sell fast and for mega bucks. All the stainless stuff on these boats is indeed nice. We have 3 in our marina !2 x 25 and one 26 ( which is for sale ! the owner asks 42000 bucks !!!! ) Thorsten  

I have to say I am very impressed with Hake Yachts and the Seaward Eagle with retracting keel. I was in Florida 2 yrs ago and drove up to Stuart, Fl where they manufacture the Seaward line and met the ower, Nick Hake, in person. I''ve checked out the 32, and although a little small for a liveaboard for 2, its very easy to singlehand and great as a liveaboard for one. You can''t beat the price and there is some good quality equipment on them. They now have a video you can order on this specific model that I have. I think it was $8-$12 but worth it if you are seriously considering buying a Seward. The newer models from 2002 onward have far less issues than in the past, and Nick Hake stands behind his work. If I was still a single guy, this would be the perfect boat for me to cruise the east coast and explore the keys. Good luck! Tim  

The newer seawards seem to be a much better quality than the older models. This is one boat that really holds it value. what i'm not liking is the retractable keel. The keel AND the rudder come straight up, they do not swing . If you hit something , its like hitting it with a regular keel. The reason people buy this boat is to explore skinny water, but not having the swing keel makes it a bit harder. The next thing i don't like is an almost useless little seat on the forward starboard side. seems like wasted space to me, I could never picture me sitting there. Now when you compare the 25 against a mcgregor , you can see that the hake is a much better built and much better finished boat. Would I buy one? If I just wanted to explore and spend weekends on the boat then I would highly recommend one. AS for the 32 rk I'd buy one today if I could find one that I could afford.  

The Eagle 32 with retracting keel is even more compelling when one considers the possibilities of variable keel. With the keel fully retracted, can stomach in an isolated sand bank and landed without shorts wet, or bottom of the keel and going abroad. With the keel fully extended, draft 6'6". Not only is a boat with his stiff lower in the ballast bulb at the end of the keel, but it is a remarkable artist in all points of sail.  

As I understand it, Seaward had been sold to a group of 'investors' and that during that time quality suffered. Hake bought the company back and quality is now back as a top priority. I plan to visit the factory and take a test sail of the 32RK soon.  

OS2Dude I'd be interested in your thoughts about the Hake after your visit to the Hake factory.  

Nice.  

This one keel you don't EVER want to hit something with!  

Just how many keels DO you want to hit anything with? The way it is made it can take some hits, as it is braced inside the trunk so even when it is down it still has something in the trunk to brace it. Nothing can be ALL THINGS to ALL PEOPLE, you have to make some tradeoffs to get the characteristics your are trying to achieve. I wouldn't want to hit any rock outcrop with any boat. Being retractable you can raise it to get over shoal obstacles. GPS & even charts do not mean you always know where EVERYTHING is. You still need to sail with an eye to your environment, even with a fixed keel. I've been to the factory and took a short test sail with Rob on a 32RK earlier this year. It is a very nice boat. In fact it is still the front runner for our next boat. (They were working on a 46RK for an upcoming boat show, and WOW that is a nice boat!)  

Like I don't know, Dude  

DeniseO30, Thanks for the link. Chuck  

Chuck, his boats are amazing! I can't imagine a boat better suited for the Chesapeake. I could maybe afford an anchor for such a boat LOL or the islands where they can walk to shore with the keel up.

Seaward 32RK (Raised Keel) - Keel winch upgrade

lindsaytodd

I have a 2002 Hake Seaward 32RK and am looking to replace the keep winch and install a new remote switch in the cockpit to replace the original pull-strings. Appears that the original model (Rule T20S) has been discontinued. Does anyone out there have experience with replacing the Keel winch on a Hake Seaward 32RK? Thanks in advance... Lindsay  

@lindsaytodd , I'm not lucky enough to have a 32RK (great boat, by the way). But eTrailers.com recommends the Hawse Fairlead - 2,500 as the replacement for that model, on a trailer. Might be worth looking at. Harbor Freight also has a good selection of winches.  

Thanks Tedd, I will take a look at this one. I see it has the synthetic rope so I will need to check if it will run in the same pulley system for raising the keel. Will also check the size as space is tight as you can see in the attached picture. I recently bought a Harbor Freight 2500 winch for raising the mast and it works great and comes with a wired remote and wireless remote. I've thought about using it but would rather find a "marine grade" unit. I'm also looking at a Marine grade Endurance EMD2000SS ($367 at Northern Tool). It looks good, but will need to purchase a separate remote system. Sounds like I'm on the right trail... Many thanks for the suggestion!

Thanks for the photo and diagram of the winch system. I'm quite keen on the Seawards, especially the keel system, so it's nice to see some detail on how it works. The 26RK is on my short list. The only thing I'm not thrilled about is the interior space and headroom, which are just a bit less than I want. The 32RK would be perfect in that regard, but it's outside my price range and also a little too big, I think, for regular towing and launching.  

HI again Tedd, looks like you are between boats just now? What have you had? What are you looking for? I also see you are in Vancouver... I have not sailed in your area but have chartered many boats out of Anacortes up into the Gulf Islands and Sunshine Coast. It is beautiful up there! Maybe I can get back up there sometime if this Covid thing ever goes away. I am fortunate to find a 32RK that I could afford. Some History: I purchased my first sailboat, a 1972 Catalina 27 in 1995, got 2-foot-itis and in 2003 moved up to a 1978 C&C 36KCB (Keel-Centerboard). Sailed it from Tacoma, WA down the coast and up the Columbia River thru 4 dams (9-day trip) to Port Kelley, WA. I put many $$$ into it over the first 10 years and got lots of enjoyment on her. Everytime she needed bottom paint and maintainance, it was a 4-5 day trip down to Portland, OR (each way). Last year she was needing more $$$ than I cared to put into her so I sold her cheap and started looking for a smaller boat, possibly trailerable, that is easier to handle solo. I have a friend that has a 1995 Seaward 25 that I was pretty impressed with, so started my research. I came to the same conclusions you did on interior size. It was going to be pretty hard downsizing from a 36' to 25'/26/ Seaward. Then I found there were two Seaward 32's on the market in the NW. I test sailed a 2013 Seaward 32RK in Seattle and was really impressed. It feels like it has the same room as my old C&C 36 (with less storage) and she handled really nice. I could handle all the sails myself from the cockpit. Only issue was price... So I drove to look at a 2002 Seaward 32RK in the middle of Farm country in Oregon. This boat was older, but has been stored in a shop since 2007, so she looks brand new... and was $50K less $$. So we made a deal and now she is at the boat yard getting prepped for this summer in the San Juan Islands.  

Hi @lindsaytodd , I started sailing a Bombardier 3.8 as a kid, self taught, and then a sailboard. But I didn't sail at all from my mid twenties until nearly sixty. Busy doing other things. In 2017 we bought a Macgregor 26S classic. I probably would have bought something a little bigger--maybe a Hunter 260--but my wife wasn't at all sure she was going to like sailing, so we bought something cheap that I could be happy sailing on my own if it turned out she didn't like it. As it turns out, she does like sailing, so w've sold the Mac and are looking for something more comfortable. I'm retired now so we can do some longer trips. There are only two things keeping me out of a Seaward 32RK. One is price, but I could actually stretch to that price level if everything else was perfect. But I also feel that the 32RK is just a bit too big for the kind of trailer sailing we do. We keep the boat at home and tow and launch it every time we sail. We do generally go for multiple days at a time, so the time spend launching and rigging the boat is "amortized" over several days of sailing. But, even so, my sense is that the 32RK is just a bit too big and heavy for that kind of operation. And, as I said before, the 26RK is just a bit too small. Again, if it were just me, then the 26RK would be fine. But it feels a bit small inside for two people to spend, say, a couple of weeks on. For a long time the boat at the top of my short list was the Hunter 260. But I've recently decided to up my budget so I'm now looking at some other boats that I had previously rejected as being too expensive. I'm looking very closely at a couple of models from TES, in Poland. TES has a Canadian distributor and I've talked to a couple of TES owners here who are very happy with their boats. TES makes a range of trailerable boats from about 24' up to 28' that are all cruising oriented, with galleys, heads (and marine toilets), good headroom (more than 5'8" even on the smallest boats), and European-style A-frame mast-raising systems. I still think the Hunter is a great boat but the TES boats have a couple of features I really like that the Hunter lacks, including "walk arounds," which I've decided is something I really want. I was advised by the TES 28 owner I talked to that the 28 is probably too big for regular towing and launching. Not so much the boat itself, which he says launches fairly easily. But the mast is heavy enough that it's a chore to rig and stow, even with the excellent mast-raising system. But I'm looking very closely at the other models.

Hey, thanks for the response. The new winch is getting installed with deck foot switches at the mast and a toggle switch at the helm. Also just found that the fuel tank had several minor leaks... ... so putting ordering a new tank. Even though this boat was stored inside most its life, condensate sat in the bottom of the tank and corroded the aluminum. BTW... your 32RK looks beatiful!  

Thank you! Are you going to replace with the standard 20 gal tank or enlarge capacity? or a 2 cell system. I really wish we had a larger fuel cell so no on deck jerry cans are needed. We have so many 32RK mods here and if you want we can share them with you. As ours is stored at our home so I'm tinkering with projects between trips. Next project starting solar arch with davits & mast crutch support so we can remove the aft pole support.. You can contact any time as we 32RK owners need to collaborate. Jeff 602-571-6750

We also have a plan to sail the San Jauns but in a few years, as we are getting prepared to cruise the Sea Of Cortes in October. We will look forward to hearing your story's. I had the companion way doors as we have such extreme temp swing here in the desert and nates come summer so we go from screen to lexan. As weather permits the doors lift off and store in the V-birth. we can still utilize the drop boards if needed. The dorade guards we made here out of some scrap tubing given to us (buddies with lots of 316). We still need the bungee so the jib sheets don't get caught on the keel stem as we often sail with only 1/2 the keel in the water. Enjoy you new to you craft! Fair winds Jeff [email protected]
