From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Southern Cross 35 is a recreational keelboat, built predominantly of fiberglass with an Airtex core in the hull and a balsa core for the deck, and also with wooden trim. It has a cutter rig, a raked stem, a canoe style transom, a skeg-mounted rudder controlled by a wheel and a fixed raked fin keel with a cutaway forefoot. It displaces 17,700 lb (8,029 kg) and carries 5,750 lb (2,608 kg) of lead ballast.

The boat has a draft of 4.92 ft (1.50 m) with the standard keel fitted.

The boat is fitted with either a Universal or Yanmar diesel engine of 30 hp (22 kW) for docking and maneuvering. The fuel tank holds 35 U.S. gallons (130 L; 29 imp gal) and the fresh water tank has a capacity of 90 U.S. gallons (340 L; 75 imp gal).

The below deck accommodation includes a bow "V"-berth and a double settee berth to port in the main cabin. The galley is aft, at the foot of the companionway steps to starboard and includes a three-burner propane stove and oven, foot-pumped water and an icebox with 4 in (10 cm) of insulation. Then main cabin drop-leaf table mounts to the mast. The main cabin has a teak grate sole and teak and white oak woodwork. The head is forward on the port side and includes a shower, with a fiberglass pan floor and a teak grate. There is a wet locker and navigation station opposite the head.

Ventilation includes an opening hatch above the galley, plus an opening galley port. The main cabin has an opening hatch and eight opening ports.

The boat was factory supplied with a complete suite of sails, including several genoas, jibs, storm jibs and jib-topsails. The staysail is boom-mounted and self-tending. There is an anchor well on the bow and an anchor rode locker.

The mainsheet traveler is cockpit mounted, just forward of the helm position for easy access while sailing. There are halyard winches on the cabin roof and two genoa winches on the curved cockpit coaming. The genoa sheets route through a track that allows close sheeting of the sail. The mainsail has jiffy reefing and has a topping lift supplied. The standing rigging is of steel rod construction.
