The Express 35 is a Canadian sailboat, that was designed by Steve Killing and first built in 1984.[1][2][3]
Production
The design was built by Goman Boat Limited in Midland, Ontario Canada and later by Express Yachts in the same Midland Ontario facility, after the two companies merged. Goman Boat Limited was founded by two former C&C Yachts employees, Bill Goman and Steve Killing.[1][3][4]
Design
The Express 35 is a recreational keelboat, built predominantly of fiberglass, with wood trim. It has a masthead sloop rig, a raked stem, a reverse transom, an internally-mounted spade-type rudder controlled by a wheel and a fixed fin keel. It displaces 11,500 lb (5,216 kg) and carries 5,300 lb (2,404 kg) of ballast.[1][3]
The boat has a draft of 6.50 ft (1.98 m) with the standard keel and 5.40 ft (1.65 m) with the optional shoal draft keel. The boat is fitted with an inboard engine.[1][3][5]
A tall mast version was also produced, with a mast about 1.8 ft (0.55 m) higher than standard.[1][3][6]
The design has a hull speed of 7.22 kn (13.37 km/h).[3][7]
