Description
Hunter 33.5
After 20 years under the same, meticulous ownership, this well cared for Hunter is up for sale.
These boats were highly sought after in the early years of build due to their great handling, quick turn of speed and ease of use due to the small headsail and comfortable cockpit. The design was so popular that Hunter went onto produce similar boats for the charter trade.
PUFFIN, has been in current ownership since 1999 and comes with a very extensive inventory and includes recent electronic upgrades such as Furuno radar, VHF and Raymarine instruments. She is currently on the hard, since the owners have other commitments, but is ready to launch at a moments notice, with touched up bottom paint and fresh varnish currently being applied to teak deck trim.
The boat comes with extensive logs, both sailing and maintenance, covering the last 20 years. These highlight all improvements, what/when servicing was carried out, costs etc. Very few, if any, non commercial yachts have such a meticulous record, which is an asset to this boat and its new owners.
The wing keel arrangement of this Hunter 33.5, makes her ideally suited to the shallow waters around New England and certainly doesn't detract from her performance.
This is a wonderful boat for relative newcomers to sailing or for someone who wants to downsize to an easily managed and maintained boat.
This boat is currently laid up in Portsmouth, Rhode Island and available to be seen by appointment.

Growing up in Malta, Alex was surrounded by the Mediterranean maritime industry. He built his first model boat at the age of 11 and hasn’t stopped playing with boats since. In no time, Alex learned to sail and had his offshore captain’s license by age 17 and his Ocean Master ticket by his mid 20's. Besides learning and developing skills as a seaman, he was also playing with engines and machinery of all types, including building and racing rally cars and old motorcycles.
Â
With a college background in physics, applied and pure mathematics, he studied naval architecture, which culminated in being employed at Sergio Lupoli Yacht Design in Naples for 5 years, this included design and building schedules of small custom IRC racing sailboats. While this led to work on a wide variety of projects and boats, restlessness eventually led back to sea, initially as mate on an ocean-going tug, master on a research dive vessel, running a Swan for the Japanese delegation at a G7 summit, several transatlantic passages, as well as racing yachts in the Middle Sea Race and elsewhere in the Mediterranean.
Â
More recently he was captain/engineer onboard a 30m classic motor yacht for 13 years, with an approximate 5000Nm yearly cruising schedule. Besides being responsible for the guests & crew, Alex scheduled and oversaw the extensive refit and maintenance programs required for an old classic yacht, with all the numerous little bits that go with keeping such a vessel afloat and running.
Â
In addition to his native languages of Maltese, English, and Italian, Alex is conversant in Spanish, French, and Arabic. He and his wife sailed from Malta to the US in their 33-foot gaff cutter. They now reside in Portsmouth, and in their free time explore the US countryside on their dual sport motorcycles. He is a life member of the Royal Malta Yacht Club and past president of the Rhode Island Soaring Club, where he is a prominent participant in national model sailplane contests.
Â
Alex is now on the team at Brewer Yacht Sales, and keen to utilize his decades of experience on behalf of clients, wishing to experience the fun and pleasure of yacht ownership.
