Thirty five knots from a ten metre hull says plenty about her build.
Twin Volvo Penta D4-300 diesels come as standard, with twin Mercury 300 V8 or Yamaha F300 outboards offered as alternatives, so an owner can choose the configuration that suits how she will be used. At cruise she holds a steady 25 knots, with 570 litres of fuel giving a range of around 250 nautical miles, enough for a full day on the water and the run home. An 18.9 degree deadrise at the transom keeps her settled through a chop, and a draught of just 0.5 metres means shallow bays and skinny approaches stay open to her when larger yachts have to anchor off.
Every metre of deck on the V33 is built to be used, not admired from a distance.
Marcio Schaefer and the in-house design team drew a cockpit and bow that convert between seating and sunbathing, with an on-deck galley placed for easy entertaining. Mediterranean style shades stretch from the hardtop to cover both spaces, so guests stay out of the sun through the hottest part of the day. Bulwarks stand 68 centimetres high with padded bolsters running from bow to stern, a detail that matters as much underway as at anchor, and a bridge clearance of 3.70 metres keeps her practical for a wider range of marinas. She carries up to ten guests on deck without feeling crowded.
Below deck, the V33 trades space for comfort without apology.
A single cabin sleeps two, built around a convertible V-berth and finished to the same standard as the deck above, with headroom of 1.85 metres so moving around below feels easy rather than cramped. A private head completes the accommodation. It is a deliberately compact arrangement, suited to an owner who uses her mainly by day and wants the option of a night aboard rather than a full live aboard cruiser. Marcio Schaefer’s interior work keeps the materials consistent with the exterior, so the transition between the two never feels like stepping into a different yacht.
The V33 is built around one idea: get guests outside and keep them there.
Ten day guests can spread across the convertible bow and cockpit seating, moving easily between sun and shade as the Mediterranean style covers extend. The on-deck galley means drinks and light meals happen without anyone leaving the group, and the open sightlines from the helm to the stern keep the whole yacht feeling sociable rather than divided into separate zones. For short hops between anchorages or a full day out from a home marina, she is set up for constant movement between swimming, lounging and cruising at speed.
At an estimated 200,000 euros new, the V33 is the most accessible way into the Schaefer name.
Built in Brazil under Schaefer Yachts Engineering with naval architecture from the in-house design team, she carries a dry weight of 4,950 kilograms on a GRP hull, keeping both fuel use and handling in check. The choice between standard diesel power and outboard alternatives lets an owner tune running costs and performance to their own cruising pattern, crewed by one for day trips with family or friends. For a buyer wanting genuine Schaefer engineering, modern open styling and real performance in a compact, easily run package, the V33 is a logical first step into the range.
