The Owner s wants the boat gone!!! Make an offer.

True Bluewater cruiser for sail. Beautiful Southern Cross 35 for sale. This boat has been totally reworked for all intent and purpose this boat is NEW. Look at the pictures and then realize that she looks even better in person. She is a true Bluewater cruiser with her cutter rig and wind vane steering. Cast off from shore and head for those faraway anchorages. A cutter sail plan along with the spinnaker allows for expanded sail options to keep her balanced. The wind vane steering keeps you on course without burning up battery resources. If you want to sail for distant ports take a look at Dayspring she can make it happen.

Accommodations

Note: All interior surfaces have been stripped and refinished with Epifanes varnish and all gray Formica replaced with White Sand color laminate - much brighter now! The vinyl overhead has been replaced with white laminate - much easier to clean.

Forward stateroom

Starting at the bow, there is access to the anchor locker forward. Ash ceiling strips line the hull sides between the deck and the berth. Shelving along each side runs the length of the berth, with gorgeous radius form and solid teak fiddles. The berth is 6’4” long, 7’4” wide at the shoulders with a custom mattress and has drawer storage beneath it. To starboard there is a cedar lined hanging locker with a changing seat in front of it. The cabin has 6’1” headroom and has an overhead screened hatch and a screened port light for ventilation; additional lighting comes from an overhead LED white/red light and a pair of LED reading lights.

Head

The head compartment is just aft of the forward cabin to port, with the head itself to the right and aft facing. A molded liner helps make for easy cleaning. The sink and counter unit was custom made in Corian with an integral fiddle ensuring that any spills are contained; there is a pull-out/retractable shower wand. Below the countertop there are two cabinets with shelves. Above the counter are shelves, with tinted acrylic sliding doors to close them off and keep things tidy. There is a teak framed oval mirror and a hatch and opening port for ventilation. The business side of things is taken care of with an Airhead toilet.

Saloon

The spacious saloon features lots of richly finished white oak with teak trim. The headroom is 6’1” and there is plenty of ventilation and light, with six opening ports, an overhead hatch and two dorade vents. In addition, there are four LED white/red overhead lights and four LED reading lights.

Just aft of the forward stateroom on starboard is a stack of drawers with a bureau type fiddled countertop above them. Behind that is another cedar lined locker, set back further. Continuing aft into the rest of the saloon, a teak centerline drop-leaf table is the focal point of the space. There is a storage bin in the top of the table containing a kitchen knife block with space for napkins, silverware or whatever.

On either side are opposing 6’4” long settees. Each is radiused at the forward end, has a lee cloth and ample storage behind the seat backs. Above them are shelving units, with Southern Cross’ signature tambour doors that will close them off completely to secure the contents when sailing. The port settee can slide out to convert to a larger berth if desired.

Nav station

Aft of the port settee is a deep cedar lined hanging locker, with a large fiddled countertop above. This separates the aft-facing nav station from the rest of the space. Ash ceiling strips line the hull side and there is a long, deep open shelf along the hull for mounting equipment. A large cubby is located at the back of the hanging locker and behind your right elbow when seated. There is storage beneath the nav seat and an unusually large chart table (47” wide and 30” deep) with chart storage within and shelves beneath. Electrical panels are above and within easy reach.

Galley

The galley is located at the base of the companionway on starboard and is U-shaped. The deep custom Corian double sinks are oriented facing forward and have storage directly beneath them and a unique swing-out pantry cabinet on the end of the peninsula. A three burner stove is oriented along the hull and has shelf storage with sliding doors and dish organizer shelving above that. Back along the aft end is a large top-access Seafrost 12v refrigerated

ice box with refrigeration and propane controls above. Above and behind the ice box is a three compartment fiddled dish rack. Overall, there’s a quite generous amount of counter space and your spacing is such that you can either clip in or brace easily - this is designed as a true seagoing galley.
