Mottle 33

AU $39,900

A classic Joe Adams design and build, the 1977 Mottle 33 is a solid and reliable Australian cruiser with a reputation for capable offshore performance. This well-maintained vessel offers comfortable accommodation and is ideal for coastal cruising, weekend getaways or club racing.

The layout is designed for both practicality and comfort. It sleeps up to six with a V-berth forward, convertible dinette midships (port and starboard), and a quarter berth aft—ideal for family cruising or sailing with friends.

The functional L-shaped galley includes a 2-burner metho stove with grill, a stainless steel sink with foot pump, and a 100L Isotherm 12v fridge—everything you need for simple, efficient meal prep while underway.

Powered by a 2003 Volvo Penta 28hp diesel engine, the vessel is economical to run with fuel consumption of approximately 1.2L per hour. Whether motoring or sailing, she handles confidently and is well-suited to both relaxed cruising and competitive club racing.
