Northshore 33 – 1989 – “The Usual Suspects”
Northshore 33 yachts are a superb example of the ideal family cruiser-racer, and this 1989 example is without doubt one of the best we have seen.
Built in Australia by the highly respected Northshore Yachts, the 33 quickly became one of their most popular models. Northshore earned a reputation for producing high-quality, seaworthy yachts, combining traditional boatbuilding expertise with modern GRP construction techniques — and the 33 showcases this beautifully.
Exclusively for sale with DBY Boat Sales, The Usual Suspects presents in excellent condition and is ready to sail away. She is a very fine example of her marque, well maintained and set up to provide many more years of enjoyable cruising and competitive club racing.
Below deck, the Northshore 33 offers a clean, airy interior with generous 6’3” headroom through most of the yacht — a standout feature in a boat of this size. On the water, she performs impressively, whether competing in twilight or club racing, while remaining comfortable and capable for coastal cruising.
This vessel features the desirable factory “champagne” cockpit seats, which open up the cockpit space and make sailing both comfortable and social. The cockpit is well protected with a framed bimini and spray dodger. The sail wardrobe is extensive, including a boom-furling battened mainsail, three headsails, and two spinnakers — ensuring she is well equipped for a variety of conditions.
Inspection will impress.
