Design 2333 Obsession


Not to be confused with the larger Obsession built in 1986 for the same owner, this I.O.R. racing yacht was built in 1978 by the Minneford Yacht Yard of City Island, New York. She was constructed of welded aluminum.

Heres an article that tells the story. Please double click for zoom.


The boat was extremely competitive. For example her first season ended with 8 class victories, 7 seconds and 4 third place finishes. Notable victories include: 1st in her first race at Larchmont Race Week, 1st in class Edgartown Race Week, 1st in the 250 mile Stamford-Vineyard Race and 1st in the O.R.C. of Americas Fall Series.

Here are the plans.
