A quintessential pilothouse and deck saloon cruiser, Osprey presents in good order with spaces and amenities to love in comfort! At 33ft LOA, this economical cruiser features a complete sail wardrobe, a reliable main engine, spacious and light interior and fantastic enclosed cockpit space. Complete with a tender and stainless-steel davits, Osprey is a fantastic, relaxed cruising package or would make for a terrific live-aboard.
The interior is wonderfully light with excellent vision out. With a saloon on the main deck level, this space is transformed into a light and airy open-plan area with excellent seating to port for 4 in comfort around a lovely timber dinette. A large gas/electric fridge sits to starboard beneath a handy bench top, while the internal helm station is forward of that. The helm is appropriately equipped and takes advantage of excellent vision out. Featuring a Navman plotter, depth sounder and VHF, it is suited to channel cruising with ease.
Stepping forward and below is the galley, which still shares the same airspace as the saloon above, so is appropriately in touch with the seating space. To the port side is a 2-burner gas stove and oven, while the starboard side features a stainless-steel sink with hot and cold fresh water and adequate storage. A spacious accommodation area forward of the galley houses four single berths in bunk configuration, while the lower berths to each side are wider. The head is positioned in the bow with an electric marine toilet, vanity to starboard and a shower with hot and cold fresh water to port, acting as a wet head when desired.
Power comes from a single Fordson 58hp marine diesel engine with direct shaft drive. This provides reliable and relaxed cruising at 5-6 knots and has been serviced yearly in its current long-standing ownership. The addition of a mainsail and headsail provides additional drive, but also serves the purpose of stabilisation when cruising further afield.
The cockpit is a terrific additional living space, made all the more usable thanks to a set of canvas and clears to fully enclose the space when desired. With twin settees running down both sides, this space is perfect for social occasions or lounging in the sun on a warm summer's day. The transom is home to a set of stainless-steel davits that can be easily operated to launch and retrieve the tender. Deck winches are set to each side for operation of the headsail, which has been fitted to a furler for easy use. While the side decks are relatively narrow to conserve space for the saloon, there are handholds that run across the cabin top for safer movement fore and aft.
A tidy deck-saloon motorsailer with plenty of amenities for comfort and relaxed use, Osprey is excellent for channel cruising or exploration. Its light and spacious interior, combined with a large and protected cockpit mean its occupants can get the most of the water and outdoor environment no matter the prevailing conditions. Its reliable and well-maintained engine provides economical cruising, while a set of easy-to-handle sails gives stabilisation and additional power.
