Specifications
The Van de Stadt 33 Noordzee is a classic sailing yacht designed by the renowned Dutch yacht designer E.G. van de Stadt. This particular example, built in 1968 at the De Delta (VD Torre) shipyard, is a steel S-frame with a full keel and a through-hull rudder. The ship has a length of 9.85 meters, a width of 2.85 meters, and a draft of 1.75 meters. The air draft is 14.20 meters, making the ship suitable for both inland waters and coastal and sea navigation.
Construction and Design
The hull is made of steel, contributing to the ship's robustness and stability. The S-frame hull shape is known for its seaworthiness and comfortable sailing characteristics, especially on longer voyages in open water. Steering is done via a tiller in the open cockpit. The cockpit is self-draining and equipped with a sprayhood, pulpit and pushpit seats, and a guardrail for extra safety on deck.
Interior and Accommodation
Inside, the ship offers a headroom of 1.90 meters, providing a spacious feel in the cabin. The current layout includes two fixed berths along the length of the main cabin, which can easily be converted into a double bed across the width. Additionally, there are two extra berths available.
The onboard facilities include a manual toilet with direct discharge to open water, an alcohol stove (gimballed), a sink with a foot pump, and a water tank with a capacity of 110 liters. Heating is not present.
Sailing Equipment
The sail plan consists of five sails: a mainsail, furling genoa, drifter (balloon jib), spinnaker, and storm jib. The foresails are equipped with a furling system. The mast is made of aluminum, and the ship has one mast. The condition of the sails is described as reasonable. This equipment makes the ship suitable for various wind conditions and longer sailing trips.
Engine and Technology
The engine is a Yanmar 3YM30 inboard diesel engine with a power of 30 hp, installed in 2004. The engine has approximately 1000 operating hours and is started electrically. The fuel tank has a capacity of 110 liters. The cruising speed is around 10 km/h. Onboard instruments include an oil pressure gauge, temperature gauge, and tachometer.
The electrical system operates on 12V and is supported by a 30-watt solar panel. There is one battery onboard with a capacity of 100 Ah.
Navigation and Safety
In terms of navigation, the ship is equipped with a depth sounder, GPS, compass (Sestrel Moore), and a Sailor VHF radio. Additionally, there is a lifebuoy, a manual bilge pump, and a self-draining cockpit. A Plastimo 6-person life raft is included, but the last inspection was in 2018. This raft needs to be re-inspected before use.
Maintenance and Condition
The ship is currently on the hard. The underside is primed, and the current owner will apply antifouling upon sale. Maintenance is needed above deck. The last time the ship was taken out of the water for maintenance was in 2025, as well as the last antifouling treatment.
History and Use
The current owner has had the ship for 30 years and used it for pleasure sailing, vacations, and trips on inland waters, seas, and to destinations such as Helgoland, the German Wadden Sea, the Baltic Sea, and southern England.
Additional Equipment
Included in the sale are a loose swim ladder, fenders and lines, an anchor with chain and line, and the aforementioned life raft.
The Van de Stadt 33 Noordzee is a classic steel sailing yacht with a rich history and a design that has proven itself on both inland waters and open sea. With its characteristic lines, functional equipment, and solid construction, this ship offers opportunities for sailors looking for a traditional yacht with potential for further personalization and use.
