Production

The design was initially built by Henderson himself and he completed about two examples starting in 1992. The design and tooling was then sold to the Canadian company C&C Yachts, who built about six more. Only eight boats were completed in total.{{cite web|url =https://sailboatdata.com/builder/cc-yachts|title =C&C Yachts |accessdate = 3 April 2022|last= McArthur| first = Bruce |work = sailboatdata.com|year = 2022|archive-url= https://archive.today/20201015222748/https://sailboatdata.com/builder/cc-yachts|archive-date= 15 October 2020|url-status= live}}

Design

The SR 33 is a small racing keelboat, built predominantly of fibreglass. It has a fractional sloop rig, a nearly plumb stem, a reverse transom, an internally-mounted spade-type rudder controlled by a tiller and a lifting fin keel. It displaces {{convert|5372|lb|kg|0|abbr=on}}.

The boat has a draft of {{convert|7.00|ft|m|abbr=on}} with the lifting keel extended and {{convert|3.90|ft|m|abbr=on}} with it retracted.

The boat may be optionally fitted with an inboard motor for docking and maneuvering. The fresh water tank has a capacity of {{convert|26|u.s.gal}}.

The design has a PHRF racing average handicap of 75 with a high of 81 and low of 69. It has a hull speed of {{convert|7.05|kn|km/h|2|abbr=on}}.{{cite web|url = http://www.sailingjoy.com/sailboat_specs/sailboat_specs/view/2656/sr-33|title = Sailboat Specifications for SR 33|accessdate = 2 October 2018|work = Sailing Joy|author = InterVisionSoft LLC|year = 2018}}{{Dead link|date=July 2020 |bot=InternetArchiveBot |fix-attempted=yes }}
