Carter 33
Description
The Carter 33 is a classic cruiser-racer sailboat designed by renowned American naval architect Dick Carter (Richard "Dick" Carter), continuing the performance lineage from models like the Carter 30 and Carter 2 Ton. Introduced in 1971 (as a scaled-up evolution of the Carter 30), it became one of Carter's most popular "series-built" designs—marketed through his company Carter Offshore and produced in good numbers for the era.
