The 1983 Soverel 33 is a seminal design by Mark Soverel that epitomized the shift toward ultra-light displacement boats (ULDB) in the American racing scene. Born from a family legacy of performance-oriented construction in North Palm Beach, Florida, this iteration of the 33 was a radical departure from the heavier 1968 model of the same name. It was specifically engineered to dominate the International Measurement System (IMS) and PHRF circuits, offering a level of speed that frequently allowed it to compete with—and beat—vessels ten feet longer. While Soverel Marine produced the initial 69 hulls using advanced foam-coring techniques, the design's commercial success led to a secondary production run of approximately 20 units by Tartan Marine between 1986 and 1988. These later hulls are often distinguished by a more refined interior finish, though they maintain the original's uncompromising hull form.
