Linjett 33, FELISIA

Broker’s Comments

With its elegant design, excellent sailing characteristics, and well-built construction, the Linjett 33 is a timeless classic. Built at the renowned Rosättra Boatyard, a family-owned business with over 100 years of boatbuilding experience, the Linjett 33 carries on a tradition of Swedish quality and craftsmanship. The model was produced between 1994 and 2010 without any design changes, a testament to its well-thought-out and balanced construction.

Rosättra Boatyard has always built its boats with an uncompromising commitment to quality. The Linjett 33 has a solid and well-built hull, constructed with hand-laid fiberglass and multiple reinforcements for maximum durability. All bulkheads and berths have been laminated directly to the hull, creating a relatively robust and torsionally rigid structure. The lead keel is fastened with sturdy bolts and supported by strong floor timbers. To ensure both precision and protection, the rudder construction features a small skeg that provides additional security in case of grounding.

The Linjett 33 appeals to both heart and mind. It combines classic lines, low freeboard, and elegant proportions with modern construction techniques and innovative solutions. It is an excellent boat for a small family but also a great choice for those who want to participate in club racing. Its sailing characteristics have led to good results in different regattas over the years.

The boat has an easily driven and well-balanced hull, maintaining its character even when fully loaded for vacation. With its narrow waterline and tall rig, it moves smoothly through the water and achieves good speed even in light winds. The self-tacking jib makes sailing both efficient and easy, perfect for navigating between rocks and islands where quick tacks are essential.

For those looking to maximize the performance, the boat is prepared for a larger genoa and features adjustable sheet tracks. The tiller is long and made of solid wood, providing a direct feel and making the boat easy to handle, even with a small crew. Many Linjett 33 sailors report that the boat is course-stable, with an initial heel that quickly stabilizes as the boat continues forward without losing speed.

Below deck, the Linjett 33 offers Scandinavian woodworking of the highest class, something increasingly rare in today’s mass-produced boats. The layout is well-planned with smart solutions. The interior is crafted from solid mahogany and teak, lacquered in multiple layers to create a refined and durable finish.

The Linjett 33 is a boat that many sailors keep for decades, thanks to its timeless design and high build quality. Owning a Linjett 33 is not just about having a boat—it is about becoming part of a Swedish boatbuilding tradition. Whether you are looking for a safe and beautiful family boat or a performance cruiser for longer voyages, the Linjett 33 is an excellent choice in its class.

Owner’s Comments

It has been a true pleasure to own this fantastic boat for ten years. The Linjett 33 is a boat to be proud of, a brilliant example of Swedish design and craftsmanship at its best.

The boat sails beautifully and is well-equipped for both archipelago cruising and longer voyages. We have mainly sailed in the archipelago, around Öland and Gotland, and it has been perfect for that purpose. The spacious teak deck provides a great feeling underfoot and adds to the enjoyable atmosphere on board.

Sail handling is smooth and safe from the cockpit. The sails are in excellent condition and feel like new. We have mostly sailed with the mainsail and self-tacking jib, occasionally hoisting the spinnaker for extra speed and excitement.

We are now selling as our family is growing, and we are moving on to a larger boat. Many previous Linjett 33 owners have told me how much they miss their boat – and I can understand why.

To the new owner, I just want to say: Good luck! You won’t regret it.
