Rodgers 33 Fractional Rig

Rodgers 33 Fractional Rig

Description

The Rodgers 33 FR (often listed as Rodgers 33 with "FR" denoting a specific variant or fractional rig configuration in some databases) is a classic American performance-oriented cruising/racing sailboat designed by O. H. Rodgers (the same Tampa-based naval architect behind the Rodgers 24 and 26 you asked about earlier). Built in limited numbers around 1980, it's part of Rodgers' series of MORC/IOR-inspired designs—emphasizing speed, handling, and club racing capability with enough accommodations for coastal or weekend cruising.
