need a whole lot more information (payload, boat weight, sail area, use, hull shape, prismatic, etc etc) before I would recommend anything. But 22" on 32' is 17:1 l/b, so if everything else was good, it would get along pretty quickly.
What do you think Rob, anyone? 22'' keel width to wide for a 32' hull?
Maybe do a 20' foot long hull with a 14''wide keel depending on how much weight I decide to carry over on windward hull!?

Looks like the no rocker flat bottom does alright. But I suspect in light airs not well powered up things could be come abit unpleasant. Really quick acceleration in roll and pitch. seasick for sure me....
