The design was developed into the Schock 35 in 1984, using the same hull design, but a taller mast and deeper keel.[1][2]

Production edit

The design was built by W. D. Schock Corp in the United States, from 1978 until 1983, with 115 boats completed, but it is now out of production.[1][2][5][6][7][8]

Design edit

The Santana 35 is a recreational keelboat, built predominantly of fiberglass, with wood trim. It has a fractional sloop rig with aluminum spars, a raked stem, a reverse transom, an internally mounted spade-type rudder controlled by a tiller and a fixed fin keel. It displaces 8,500 lb (3,856 kg) and carries 3,300 lb (1,497 kg) of ballast.[1][2][9]

The boat has a draft of 6.25 ft (1.91 m) with the standard keel.[1][2]

The boat is fitted with a Swedish Volvo Penta MD7A diesel engine of 13 hp (10 kW) for docking and maneuvering. The fuel tank holds 20 U.S. gallons (76 L; 17 imp gal) and the fresh water tank also has a capacity of 20 U.S. gallons (76 L; 17 imp gal).[1][2][9]

The design has sleeping accommodation for eight people, with two straight settee berhs and two pilot berths in the main cabin and two aft cabins, each with a double berth. The galley is located on the port side at the companionway ladder. The galley is equipped with a two-burner stove, ice box and a sink. A navigation station is opposite the galley, on the starboard side. The head is located in the bow forepeak and includes a shower.[1][2]

For sailing downwind the design may be equipped with a symmetrical spinnaker of 451 sq ft (41.9 m2).[9]

The design has a hull speed of 6.9 kn (12.8 km/h).[2]
