I'm thinking of adding a wind vane to Zenobia -- my 1983 CD33 sloop. Wondering if it is possible and/or adviseable to hunt down a used one. Any thoughts?

Is it possible/adviseable to buy a used wind vane?

Ryan,
You saw the Atom (French built) wind vane on my Frances. I have now used it in 10 to 20 knots of wind, and it is amazing how simple and effective it is. I would think a used Aires or Monitor would be a great addition to a boat that is as balanced sailing as your CD33.
