Cobra 33

This 2018 Cobra 33 offers a rare opportunity to acquire a vessel specifically optimized for competitive regatta racing while maintaining cruising capabilities. Measuring 9.96 meters overall with a 3.33-meter beam, the boat has undergone significant weight-saving measures and structural optimizations to improve its rating. Notable technical enhancements include a 13.50-meter oversized mast, a refined rudder blade with a steel shaft, and a secondary carbon fiber racing rudder with a dedicated shaft. The cockpit and interior have been lightened using carbon fiber seat covers, flooring, and lightweight polyethylene foam doors, with all original fiberglass and teak components retained for conversion. Propulsion is provided by a 29 HP Yanmar engine with 800 recorded hours, paired with a Varifold folding three-blade propeller. The rigging setup is highly sophisticated, featuring German-style mainsail sheeting with Harken blocks, a cockpit-mounted mainsheet traveler, and a multi-purchase composite vang. Deck hardware is equipped for high-performance handling, including dyneema halyards and sheets replaced three years ago. The sail inventory is extensive and categorized by usage. The regatta-specific set by Doyle (2018) includes a full-batten mainsail on 2023 Rostan cars, various jibs, asymmetrical spinnakers, a Code 0, and storm sails, all maintained through light usage. A dedicated cruising set is also provided, consisting of a 2023 Rostan-equipped mainsail, a 2020 Millennium mainsail, and a 2018 North Sail genoa. The vessel is configured to accommodate up to 8 people with 2 cabins and 1 bath. This Cobra 33 is located in Sicilia and is managed by the agency in Messina. Comprehensive technical documentation and the measurement certificate are available for serious buyers. Please contact the agency at Via F.
