Beautiful and elegant Stephen Jones ‘Spirit-of-Tradition’ daysailer/weekender with fantastic specification including carbon mast, Raymarine instruments, furling A-sails and road trailer.


FURTHER BROKER’S COMMENTS:


FLUTE is a very nicely presented and well-equipped example of the Stephen Jones-designed Rustler 33 daysailer/weekender from Rustler Yachts in Falmouth. Delivered to her first owner in 2013 as hull No.7, and kept locally near Falmouth until her sale to her second and current owner in 2015. Since then, she has been based in St Peter Port, Guernsey where she has been used for club racing in Guernsey as well as cruising with the owner's family locally. Additionally, she has crossed the channel several times to compete in a number of Cowes Weeks, winning the Cointreau Cup.


FLUTE’s specification highlights include:-

    Stephen Jones design

    Vacuum-infused GRP construction

    1.67m draft lead fin keel

    Selden carbon fibre mast – installed 2021

    Harken deck gear

    Comprehensive sail wardrobe include furling A2, A4 and Code Zero

    Raymarine navigation instruments with GPS plotter, AIS and autopilot

    Nanni 14hp engine with Saildrive gearbox and 2-bladed propeller

    4-berth interior layout finished in satin varnished teak and white eggshell

    Alcantara upholstery

    Gas stove and sink

    Separate heads with holding tank

Guernsey-registered, and UK VAT paid, FLUTE can be viewed in St.Peter Port, Guernsey and delivered at sale back to the UK if required to maintain UK VAT paid status. 


MANUFACTURER’S COMMENTS:


The new Rustler 33 is beautiful. Designed to be really easy to live with, simple to sail, and offer cosy accommodation for a weekend away; she is the perfect antidote to yachts whose designers have forgotten what pleasure there is to be had in simple aesthetic beauty. 


As a larger stable-mate of the hugely successful Rustler 24 dayboat, the new Rustler 33 is an all new design, with grace, and classic well-judged overhangs she really will turn heads wherever she is seen. A lead fin keel, fully balanced rudder and large easily handled rig offer first class performance without drama, and a small inboard diesel will always get you home if the wind dies! 


Whether day sailing, anchoring off a beach for a swim and a picnic, staying on board for a night, or indeed racing around the bay, the new Rustler 33 will surprise and delight you.


YACHTING PRESS REVIEWS:


“The Rustler 33 is part of the modern tradition for fast, retro-styled day-sailers that are a charm to sail, painless to own and give enough accommodation for weekending…


In appearance, the Rustler 33 is an unusual beast, clothed in a motley collection from the dressing-up box of yacht design history. Whereas every other SoT yacht is inspired by the inter-war years, the R33 owes its origins to post-war Metre yachts. So she has a retroussé counter instead of the standard sawn-off counter, square-oval portlights instead of round, a gentler sheer and a tall mast with double-spreader, 7/8ths fractional rig. Combined with the narrowish beam and pleasing cockpit coamings that run back from the cabinsides in a single, hard-stepped line, this rare costume makes for one of the prettiest SoT boats around, with an authentic marriage of form and material…


The feeling is not of a race-bred lightweight or a tank but something in between: a fairly seaworthy boat in the growing dayboat/luxury weekender niche... Our test sail was in a short weather window and without instruments for quantitative data but we hear the R33 is fast – very fast. They regularly sail into double figures and sometimes more. This is far beyond theoretical hull speed, thanks to the minimal wetted surface area, and has helped one R33 achieve six firsts out of six starts under IRC in a season. The ability to go really fast, easily and comfortably, in something this pretty, is intoxicating…


The Rustler 33 is a boat to race and a boat for family picnics. She is also a boat for coastal cruising, hopping port to port and sleeping in the cabin or under the stars in the cockpit. That’s a good thing, as once you set out, you won’t want to stop… And being so easy to chuck around, go faster and point higher, it makes you look good. It makes you feel good, too.”
