Hi all

I sail a careel 18
will be moving to a keel boat in the future.

Will be pottering around Moreton bay and surrounds and further afield eventually.

Stumbled upon The Arends 33 ... really taken with these boats.

any opinions on them?

Cheers
Byrds

Great boat. Can be pricey, because they are good.

Great boat
Crewed Melbourne to Launceston a couple of years ago and was impressed.
the predicted gale on bass strait weakened, but we had 25/30 knots from north and we only just put in one reef
accommodation good,nice fitout
lots to like

The interior of an Arends 33 is the envy of many a 40 footer.

Old mate Keith Thiel (May He RIP) had one he called Spitfire due to he being the pilot of one during WW II. He also interestingly was the original developer of the Spit Marina on the way to Manly.

I'm looking into this boat as well. Is Arends 33 a sold fiberglass hull boat?
