1982 Tartan 33

The 1982 Tartan 33 is a Sparkman & Stephens design built around a fiberglass hull measuring 33 feet 6 inches in length with a 10-foot 9-inch beam. Powered by a 25-horsepower Beta Marine diesel engine, she combines the responsive sailing characteristics and seaworthiness the design is known for with practical accommodation for cruising and extended time aboard. The hull balances performance under sail across varying conditions with the strength required for offshore passage-making.

The interior features handcrafted teak joinery and practical storage throughout, with a layout designed for couples or cruising sailors who value a manageable boat with genuine offshore capability. The accommodations prioritize functionality both underway and at anchor, making efficient use of the available space.

Recent refits have focused on offshore reliability rather than cosmetic updates alone. Standing rigging was replaced in 2021, and the boat has received modernized electrical and plumbing systems, updated deck hardware and sails, and ongoing engine maintenance. The diesel engine receives regular servicing to ensure dependability. Overall, substantial work has been directed toward core systems, sailing performance, and safety to prepare the yacht for serious cruising.
