Sea Ray Pachanga 32 Review

Hull and Top Deck

To the greatest delight of many fans, Sea Ray entered the high-performance boat market segment in 1988.

Labeled as the Pachanga (means “party” in Spanish) series, this line included the tiny but lively 19, the mid-sized 22, and the top-of-the-line 32.

In 1989 this family was expanded with the no less popular Pachanga 27.

These boats built their reputation on their excellent hull designs, high-quality features, and sporty appearance.

Intended to be the high-end model in this breed, the Pachanga 32 was built on a staked deep-V “Ray-Tech” hull with a listed centerline length of 29 feet 11 inches.

The boat had impressive dimensions including an overall length of 31 feet 7 inches and a beam of 8.5 feet, not to mention her claimed dry weight of 6,200 pounds with a standard engine package.

Filled with 160 gallons of gas and 10 gallons of fuel, the boat’s weight increased to 7,300 pounds.

Depending on its material and features, a matching tiple-axle trailer could weigh 1,700-3,000 pounds.Therefore, you could expect the gross trailering weight of the Pachanga 32 to be anywhere from 9,000 to 10,000+ pounds.

Even though the narrow beam allowed you to tow the boat in most states without permission, towing it was not easy due to its heavy weight and sizeable body.

She was engineered with a classic “Miami Vice-style” performance boat design featuring an extremely long enclosed bow section.

Through a lockable acrylic sliding door, you entered the spacious cuddy cabin, which was fitted with many convenience features.

The cozy saloon came standard with a wet bar with sink, entertainment center, bottle storage, hanging locker, and a U-shaped settee with a dinette table.

Separated by a privacy curtain from the saloon, the forward section of the cabin housed a V-berth with underneath storage and a bow rope locker.

You also had an enclosed head compartment located on the starboard side.

The sporty cockpit was also designed with a curved tinted windshield, a self-bailing fiberglass cockpit liner, and two luxurious wraparound dropout seats.

Also known as stand-up bolster seats, they had a foldable drop-out center section.

The main idea behind this versatile design was that the captain and his companion could either sit or stand while underway.

Fitted with carpeted storage beneath, a sizable fully contoured aft bench seat offered plenty of seating.

This was covered with high-quality materials, just like the upholstered sundeck pad and side bolsters, which also doubled as armrests.

The swim platform was fairly narrow compared to the size of the boat and the transom also lacked a walk-thru passage.

This was no surprise since the 32 was designed to be a high-performance sport boat rather than a family runabout.

At the helm, you had a race-inspired dashboard with an abundance of instruments, switch panels, a power tilt steering wheel, and shift/throttle levers.

Other standard features of the boat included mooring lights, stainless steel grab rails, side panel storage, cabin deck hatches, a transom shower, an ice box, and a deluxe digital stereo system.
