Indiantown, florida1990 Contest 35SWe are very pleased to present this Contest 35S for your sailing consideration!Conyplex, builder of the Contest 35S, is an established company that was a pioneer in fiberglass boat construction. In 1958, it began work on fiberglass Flying Dutchmans and two years later introduced the Contest 25, its first cruiser. More than 5,000 boats have been built since, with about 600 of these being exported to the U.S. through Van Breems Holland Yachts of Westport, Connecticut. The Contest 35S is a new design, introduced in 1988 to replace the earlier Contest 35, more capable and more comfortable! She is quite capable and is a great off shore cruiser for the Bahamas, the Keys, Cuba and beyond.Original Standing Rigging Two 150 Watt Solar Panels A/C Inverter Swim Ladder Wind Generator Bottom Painted in 2024 Cast Iron Keel Garmin Radar and GPS Portholes replaced in 2021 AIS Single SideBand VHF Full Quarter Berth V Berth Head The boat is ready to go and is currently on the hard in storage. She is a balsa cored boat with full fiberglass decking! The mast height is 48 feet making her a great boat for Florida waters. Design All Contest sailboats are designed by Dick Zaal, who for years was Conyplex's in-house designer. Each displays certain trademarks: high freeboard, wooden rubrails, and low cabin profiles.The Contest 35S conforms to the traditional Zaal style. The molded cockpit coaming that continues the line of the cabin all the way aft is certainly distinctive. It provides very comfortable back support, though the affect on appearance is not all that attractive, creating as it does a feeling of greater mass high and aft than one is accustomed to seeing on aft cockpit boats.The hull form is powerful, with relatively full sections compared to many modern racer/cruisers. The moderate displacement-to-length ratio of 249 gives it reasonable speed for a cruising boat while retaining the ability to carry the amount of stores that are necessary for living aboard and short-term cruising.The propeller shaft exits through a solid log rather than a strut, and though this increases wetted surface area somewhat, it is strong and also marginally improves directional stability. The rudder is hung on a full skeg, a smart feature on a cruising boat, providing that the skeg is well attached to the hull.The rig is a conventional masthead sloop with double spreaders, high-aspect mainsail and the ability to carry large genoas. Construction Because Contest boats are cruisers, built without too much concern for weight, there is nothing exotic about their construction. The hull and deck structure of the 35S is built of chopped strand mat, cloth and woven roving, cored with end-grain balsa.Conyplex assembles the hull and deck before building the interior; the opposite is the usual practice. The joint is glassed over with at least seven layers of cloth and also through-bolted. This is an extremely strong hull-to-deck joint that should never leak. By raising the deck a few inches above the joint, the joint, covered by a teak rubrail and stainless steel strip, is less vulnerable to damage from collision with pilings and other boats. This is a superb configuration, though again the raised deck increases apparent freeboard.Hardwood stringers and floors are fiberglassed to the hull to increase the rigidity of the structure; in a mass production boat these might be incorporated into the fiberglass pan or liner, along with furniture foundations. Interior The layout of the Contest 35S is straightforward, with a few unexpected wrinkles.The companionway hatch slides into a nice seahood, and though a small opening offers safety offshore, the shallow depth of the hatch and the orientation of the ladder make the trip below a little tight. The forward V-berths are 6' 7" long with shelves port and starboard. The hull is covered with an upholstery fabric; given the finely crafted joiner work throughout this boat. The fabric insulates moisture and sound, is pleasant to the touch, and does save weight over wood. Headroom here is 5' 11".The saloon features a 6' 6" settee to port and an L shaped settee to starboard, both of which will make good sea berths when fitted with lee cloths. Headroom in the saloon ranges from 6' 3" aft down to 6' 1- 1/2" forward.The navigation station is the right size for this boat, with enough space to spread charts folded once. Opposite is the galley, which we thought was a bit on the small side. There isn't much counter space for food preparation and even Martinus admitted that the icebox is ...
