You can be onboard with two- time Rolex Yachtsman of the Year, Dave Curtis, and reigning Rolex Yachtsman, Jud Smith, as they go head-to-head in e33's to benefit Hospice of the North Shore (HNS).
Dave and Jud are both donating their time and their own crews for this exciting event. There will be four seats available per boat for guests. The seats will be available for bid at the 13th Annual HNS Auction. The match race will take place on Saturday, July 7 in Marblehead, MA. This is also the day before the Marblehead to Halifax Race. The harbor will be full of visiting yachts planning to take part in the race. We plan to race right off the lighthouse in Marblehead for good viewing.

about HSN 
| Customer Feedback I would call myself very seriously interested in the e33 for a number of reasons. Being a scientist, I generally just give lists. Ok, here we go: 1. The boat would reduce the amount of time I currently spend doing massive "overhead" and repairs on my current "daysailer" - which is nothing but maintenance at this point. Having less onboard systems is very attractive to me. 2. I like the giant 16' cockpit and I deplore cabins that are anything but places to store gear. I appreciate that a full head is installed in a manner where I will never see it. This is especially convenient for the women in my life, as it is an essential system for them. 3. The boat is much prettier than I thought it would be. The photo of the boat can't really do it complete justice. The gelcoat finish on the hull is unbelievably fair and lacks the fiberglass pattern print through and wavy surface I see on most other new boats on the market. 4. Comparing the e33 with the J100 took the shine off the J100. On the J100, I was bothered by the cockpit broken in half by the traveler. I also couldn't see over the top of the dog house all that well and I am 6' 2." The lack of winches and the hidden fine tune system on the e33 make the deck look clean and easy to manage from my perspective. 5. I think I will add a cockpit shower and some nice little touches to make it my boat. I understand that you (Keith) will be going out to Portsmouth, RI on the 21st, 22nd of April. I would like to join you there and take a test sail. Doug |

 | The Sail Maker The stock jib and main for the e33 are constructed of Pentex fiber Pentex is the newest fiber to be introduced into cruising sails. The Pentex fiber is part of the Dacron family and has good UV resistance. The strongest point of this fiber is lower stretch for a given weight producing a sail that will hold its shape better than conventional Dacron. Visit the Doyle Sails "Fiber Guide" Racing-oriented owners have opted for the Stratis™ sails Stratis™ combines Doyle’s long standing design expertise with innovative in-house fiber aligned technology. Specialized design and manufacture deliver unsurpassed shape retention and performance throughout the most demanding race conditions. More about Stratis from Doyle Visit Doyle Sails to find out
