The Arco 33 is an American sailboat that was designed by Wirth Munroe as a cruiser and first built in 1958. The design is noted as one of the first fiberglass production sailboats of its size built.[1][2][3]
The design was built by Crystaliners Corporation (Glassco Inc.) in Miami, Florida, United States. The company completed 15 boats starting in 1958, but it is now out of production.[1][3]
The Arco 33 molds were later sold to Columbia Yachts and the design was developed into the Columbia 33 Caribbean in 1963.[1][3][4]
