Designed by renowned naval architect Ed Dubois and built by Westerly Marine between 1988 and 1992, this 35-footer represents a compelling blend of performance and cruising capability. With only 70 hulls produced during its four-year run, the Riviera 35 has become a sought-after example of late 1980s British yacht design excellence. The boat's fin keel with rudder on skeg configuration, combined with a masthead sloop rig carrying 580 square feet of sail area, delivers spirited sailing performance while maintaining good directional stability. Her SA/Displacement ratio of 15.17 indicates moderate performance potential, making her suitable for both coastal cruising and club racing. The comfortable 28.21 comfort ratio suggests she's well-suited for extended passages and offshore work. At 34.58 feet overall with a waterline length of 27.50 feet, she offers generous interior volume within her 12.25-foot beam. The substantial displacement of 15,212 pounds, with 5,291 pounds of ballast, provides excellent stability and seaworthiness. Her theoretical hull speed of 7.03 knots and favorable capsize screening ratio of 1.98 make her a confident choice for serious coastal and offshore cruising, backed by Westerly's reputation for solid fiberglass construction.
