Caribbean 35
Caribbean 35 2017 model
The Caribbean 35 needs no introduction in Australia or any other part of the world. It has for close to 50 years been the choice of both family’s and fisherman alike with its simple but functional layout, huge open cockpit and sea keeping ability that has made it almost legendary in Australian waters.
Every now and then we step on board a boat that has been so well maintained and loved we are lost for words; this is one of those boats. To say it presents as new is an understatement, its better. The current owner has spared no expense or time in keeping this 2017 Caribbean 35 as new from the day it was delivered.
Powered by twin 6.7L Cummins diesels with only 760 hours it has never missed a service with its last one carried out in February this year. The boat was also antifouled, prop speed and polished in July this year. The 7.5KVA Onan generator has only 152 hours use and was also just recently serviced.
The saloon and cabins are like the rest of the boat, as new. Stepping into the saloon you are met with an open a bright area with polished teak finishes adding that feel of luxury. The port side dinette has ample seating for the whole family while opposite on the starboard side the large lounge converts to bunks for extra accommodation. Forward is the galley containing two burner cooktop, Microwave oven, Engle fridge, sink with hot and cold water and an abundance of storage.
Stepping down into the forward cabin are there are twin bunks on the port side with the bathroom complete with separate shower on the starboard. The main cabin contains an offset double bed with hanging robe, draws and additional storage.
The cockpit area is one of largest available in a 35ft flybridge boat. Sitting center is the Reelax bait prep station while all cockpit coamings are padded. The twin tanks in the transom act as storage as well as a plumbed-up bait tank with window.
Up in the flybridge there are dual Navigator helm chairs, fwd and side lounges with a large dash housing engine display’s, Furuno sounder, Raymarine chart plotter, auto pilot, stereo remote and bilge alarm panel.
