Hans Christian 33: The Tiny Bluewater Legend Nobody Sells
Cabot 36 Used Boat Review: https://www.practical-sailor.com/sailboat-reviews/sailboats-36-40ft/cabot-36-used-boat-review/
The Hans Christian 33 is one of the most beloved older bluewater cruising sailboats ever built, and in this Practical Sailor review we take a close look at why this heavy-displacement, full-keel cutter still has such a strong following. Designed by Harwood Ives and built in the traditional offshore cruising style, the Hans Christian 33 packs a surprising amount of bluewater capability, liveaboard comfort, storage, teak joinery, and serious cruising character into a compact 33-foot hull.
If you’re shopping for an older offshore sailboat, a small liveaboard bluewater cruiser, or a traditional cruising boat with a full keel, cutter rig, bowsprit, and protected cockpit, this boat deserves a close look. We cover the Hans Christian 33’s design, construction, sailing performance, interior layout, maintenance concerns, teak decks, market prices, and what kind of sailor this classic bluewater cruiser really makes sense for.
