English
The Broom 33 is a well-proven stylish, practical, and spacious cruiser from the highly regarded Broom yard. Ideal for long term cruising they are well suited to coastal trips or exploring rivers and estuaries thanks to a clever planing hull design with a keel to improve handling at slower speeds. 'Blue Ice' benefits from the larger Volvo Penta TAMD41B, 200hp engines and additional internal helm, making her a truly capable sea cruiser, even on colder days! Her inventory includes a bow thruster, diesel heating, folding arch, electric windlass, chart plotter and dinghy/outboard combination on davits. Internally she is presented in extremely good condition having been reupholstered by Brooms in 2016. A great opportunity to buy a rare smaller Broom with all of the important extras.
