1981 Nantucket Island 33, designed by Peter Cole for unparalleled comfort and performance, Sailing Magazine praises it as a cruising gem. ‘Aurora’ is intelligently designed and skilfully crafted to provide deck space, living accommodation and stowage capacity comparable with a 40’ yacht, at a fraction of the marina fees.
Upgraded with new rigging, sails, and modern electronics (2022/23), Aurora is primed for her next expedition. With its easy to handle Bermudan Sloop rig and new re-caulked, sanded and sealed teak deck (2023), she exudes classic charm. While her new navigational inventory (2022) ensures effortless and smooth sailing on all of your expeditions.
The combination of her Power Survivor Watermaker and 2 x 40-watt solar panels ensure self-sufficiency, enabling extended voyages and secluded anchoring. With a new Rocna anchor (2022) and Lofrans electric windlass, she is ideal for exploring remote destinations and enjoying prolonged stays off-grid.
Below deck, discover handcrafted hardwood interiors offering spacious accommodations. Her forward cabin has ample storage, and her ‘L’ shaped galley boasts a new aluminium sink. The generous aft double cabin comes with a 6ft length double bunk, and a small curved sofa with plenty of storage options. She has also been fitted with new LED lighting (2023) throughout the interior.
This modernized classic-styled cruiser awaits its next adventure, currently lying in Sicily and ready for viewing.
