The Quest line is also actively racing and cruising in the Great
Lakes, Maine, and Annapolis. Holby Marine’s first Quest 33S,
currently under construction, is going to Seattle this fall. She
will have a keel-stepped mast and a non-overlapping 105% jib.We do not know of
any other 33 foot sailboat that can be offshore capable, be able to
win around the buoys and yet have the cruising amenities to cruise
in comfort for weeks at a time. If you are looking for a boat like
this, look no further and call us for a test sail.

"The Quest 33 is the most sailing fun per foot you can have in a
racer/cruiser. It's an easy boat to get around a race course, and is
perfect cruising for a couple or a family. It has the reaching speed of
most 40-foot cruising boats but goes upwind and downwind a lot faster.
And with auto pilot, I can single hand and even fly a chute, so it lets
me do a lot more sailing. To top it all off, It's easy to maintain and
keep looking pristine."
- Bart Rapaport, "OOPS" Hull #1

- Simple and complete

Quest 33 Interior Plan |

The Quest 33 is as remarkable for its interior as it is for its sailing
abilities; comfortable, well ventilated, and especially roomy for a boat
this size. The cabin aft is large enough to sleep north, south, east or
west. At the base of the companionway there is a galley to port with a
2-burner stove, icebox and sink, with stowage outboard. To starboard
there is a fully equipped, enclosed head with ample headroom. Further
forward on the starboard side, the navigation area is served from the
salon seat. The main cabin has comfortable full-sized settee berths
6'6" long, each with seat backs and an optional drop leaf table.
It's a perfect area for dining or socializing, and a great off-watch
area while sailing.
