The Goderich 35, also known as the Huromic 35, is a Canadian sailboat that was designed by Ted Brewer of Brewer, Walstrom and Associates, as a cruiser and first built in 1977.[1][2][3]
The design was built by Huromic Metal Industries Limited in Canada, but it is now out of production.[1][3]
Design
The Goderich 35 is a recreational keelboat, built predominantly of steel, with wood trim. It has a cutter rig sloop rig, a spooned raked stem, a plumb transom, a keel-mounted rudder controlled by a tiller and a fixed modified long keel, with a cutaway forefoot. It displaces 17,000 lb (7,711 kg) and carries 6,200 lb (2,812 kg) of ballast. The hull is made from steel, painted with urethane paint.[1][3] Some of the boats were built with 37 foot LOAs, using an extended stern overhang and some were built with ketch rigs.[4]
The boat has a draft of 4.75 ft (1.45 m) with the standard keel fitted.[1]
The cutter staysail is mounted on a boom and the design uses no bowsprit.[3]
The boat is fitted with a Swedish Volvo diesel engine of 24 hp (18 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 75 U.S. gallons (280 L; 62 imp gal).[1]
Below decks sleeping accommodation includes a bow "V"-berth, two main cabin settee berths and a pilot berth aft on the starboard side. The galley is located on the port side, at the foot of the companionway steps. It includes a three-burner stove and 14 cu ft (0.40 m3) icebox. The head is located forward and has a door for access from the main cabin and one from the forward cabin.[3]
Ventilation is provided by five opening ports and five portlights, plus a main cabin hatch.[3]
The steel hull is constructed from welded radius-rolled sheet steel used in the bilge area, in between flatter sheet steel in the sides and hull bottom.[4]
