2001 Dufour Gib Sea 33, Varattu

The Dufour Gib Sea 33 (2001) is a well-maintained cruising yacht that offers an ideal balance of comfort, performance, and reliability. Designed with two cabins and one head, she provides a practical interior layout, perfect for family sailing or extended trips with friends.

Her sailing setup is modernized with new sails (2022/2023), a 15 kg Rocna anchor with 75 m chain, and a Lofrans anchor winch, ensuring easy handling and secure anchoring. On deck, a new bimini (2025) adds protection and comfort, while the 600 W solar array delivers ample energy for off-grid cruising.

For navigation and safety, she is equipped with a Garmin chart plotter and sounder, Garmin wind instruments, Raymarine 4000 wheel autopilot, and a fully integrated NMEA 2000 system.

Mechanically, the yacht has undergone significant recent upgrades, making her a dependable choice for worry-free sailing. She is powered by a Yanmar 3GM30 engine with a new gearbox and several key replacements in 2025, including the starter motor, engine mounts, propeller, stern gland, cutlass bearing, and flexible shaft coupling.

Onboard comfort is enhanced with a hot water boiler, a high-efficiency seawater-cooled fridge, and a gas cooker with oven. With a 90 L fuel tank, two main water tanks plus reserve, and an 800 W inverter supported by three new batteries (2023) and a Renogy battery monitor (2025), she is well-prepared for extended cruising.

Extras such as an inflatable dinghy with Johnson 4 hp outboard, eight fenders, and various additional equipment complete this turnkey package, making her a ready-to-sail yacht for her next adventure.
