My experience when I sold Bright Star and started talking to brokers
about listing it was that they had no idea what a Freedom was about and
they rely heavily on owner-provided information. If you were to look at
the documentation for Glory, it’d list a 7’ draft, despite being the
5’11" wing keel.
I suspect that when a boat listing is being put together for yacht
world, the factory dimensions are looked up and that it is fairly easy
to not recognize changes in the line over time, especially when the
they are named the same as in the case of the 32 and the 30/32. Look up
the article on the manufacturing of Dolphins over the years - something
like 5 different manufacturers with slightly different dimensions…
