1990 Saturna 33

The Saturna 33 Pilothouse is a heavy-displacement offshore cruising sailboat built in British Columbia and designed for northern waters. Featuring a distinctive raised pilothouse with an inside steering station, the boat offers protection from wind, rain, and cold weather—a key advantage for cruising the Pacific Northwest and Canadian coasts. The fiberglass hull sits on a fin keel with a skeg-hung rudder, providing strong directional stability and rudder protection in rough seas. The canoe-style stern and relatively narrow 10.67-foot beam contribute to a smooth, comfortable motion underway.

Powered by a 30 hp Universal diesel engine, the boat is equipped for self-sufficient cruising rather than speed. The design dates to the early 1980s and reflects the naval architecture of William Garden, with proven seaworthiness demonstrated across decades of operation on the Pacific coast and beyond.
