2014 Essence 33

The Essence 33 is a 36-foot fiberglass sailing yacht built in 2014, combining traditional design lines with modern construction and materials. Its hull features a raked stern with a vertical bow, paired with a compact, squared-off deckhouse and carbon-fiber mast. The boat has been stored indoors in a shipyard throughout its life and used only sparingly.

Performance comes from a highly efficient sail plan of approximately 70 square meters of white sails with minimal overlap jib and a 90 square-meter gennaker set on a bowsprit. The yacht is designed to be single-handed or managed with minimal crew, making it accessible to experienced sailors seeking simplicity as well as those new to sailing. At under 3 tonnes displacement, the boat can be loaded onto a trailer, eliminating long sea transfers and allowing launch at any location with basic marina crane facilities.

Below deck, the interior is pared to essentials with two berths, a saloon bench, a refrigerator, and a marine head. The yacht is powered by a single electric engine rated at 26.82 horsepower. This combination of responsive handling, manageable size, and straightforward accommodations makes the Essence 33 equally suited to day sailing near a home port or longer cruises for owners who value direct engagement with their boat.
