Review of Ganbare 35 Sleeper
Basic specs..
Unknown keel type
The boat can only enter major marinas as the draft is about 2.19 - 2.29 meter (7.19 - 7.49 ft) dependent on the load. See immersion rate below.
Sailing characteristics
This section covers widely used rules of thumb to describe the sailing characteristics. Please note that even though the calculations are correct, the interpretation of the results might not be valid for extreme boats.
What is Theoretical Maximum Hull Speed?
The theoretical maximal speed of a displacement boat of this length is 7.2 knots. The term "Theoretical Maximum Hull Speed" is widely used even though a boat can sail faster. The term shall be interpreted as above the theoretical speed a great additional power is necessary for a small gain in speed.
The immersion rate is defined as the weight required to sink the boat a certain level. The immersion rate for Ganbare 35 Sleeper is about 205 kg/cm, alternatively 1148 lbs/inch. Meaning: if you load 205 kg cargo on the boat then it will sink 1 cm. Alternatively, if you load 1148 lbs cargo on the boat it will sink 1 inch.

Doug Peterson
Douglas Blair Peterson (July 25, 1945 – June 26, 2017) was an American yacht designer. Beginning with the One Tonner Ganbare in 1973, Peterson’s designs have pioneered many innovations in racing and cruising yachts After nearly winning the 1973 International One Ton Cup, Doug Peterson stated in an interview: “I started putting boats down on paper when I was 10, and have never wanted to do anything else.” This was GANBARE, clearly the fastest boat in the series (though, due to some tactical errors, she didn’t actually win). Built on a shoe string budget, and a huge gamble financially for him personally, GANBARE was the boat that clearly established his reputation. Another Peterson design, ‘Gumboots’, easily won the following year, proving that no other designer had ‘caught up’. Almost immediately, Doug Peterson became the designer in demand for IOR racing sailboats, around the world, for more than a decade. His firm employed many who went on to establish their own reputations as designers of racing sailboats. Later he became involved in several Americas Cup campaigns. A tribute page to this legendary designer has been set up on Facebook. Please click on the link above to contribute content.

Contessa 35
- Add to quote
Hi all, I have been beating the bushes in the New England area for a 35 to 38 footer. I have just sold my sabre 28 that I spent the last two years restoring. I am not looking for a project boat. A little cosmetic work is O.K. (even some soft spots in the deck). My price is up to 55k. I have run the gauntlet of Tartan 37s, Bristol 35.5s, Niagara 35s and a beautifully maintained 1974 Pearson 39. I have raced on many C&Cs and fing them generic. I have been sailing for over 40 years and can not stand the new generation of suppositories with sticks !!! I will be weekending, week to two week cruising and if life works out maybe a month to go south. I enjoy the occasional race The lion share of my sailing will be in the New England area. I want a boat that is comfortable, but does well in light air. I have recently come across a Contessa 35 in great shape. She was owned by a guy who new the right way to take care of a boat. Turn Key with lots of new gear. Westerbeke diesel and a very good sail inventory. She has been set up with roller furling and all running rigging led to cockpit with self tailing winches. She has oversized self tailing primaries. My thought is, a mostly retiered one tonner that can be sailed short handed could be a great light air summer sailing boat. My problem no one seems to know anything about the 35. The Contessa 32 is world famouse for many good reasons. Any thoughts out there? Thank You and Thank God (and Al Gore) for the internet.
The Contessa 35 is a Doug Peterson design of the late'70s IOR era, not too different from the breakthrough Ganbare 35 at the time. As a Contessa I'd expect the build quality to be a cut above the other generic builders of that time, like Chaser and US yachts. These boats are not ideal passagemakers but offer lively performance despite some probable quirky behavior downwind in a breeze. That said, they can offer good value for the money. If it's the one in Stanford CT it looks pretty nice and well kept. Certainly she'll be a good performer esp upwind, but a much different vessel than more recent designs that were not trying to cheat a specific design rule. Sometimes (often) this process produced boats that "rated" well but did not necessarily have blind speed, and occasionally produced boats with real bad habits. Some of these models show their Racer/Cruiser bent (as opposed to Cruiser/Racer) with pipe berths and sail stowage over accomodation. Good luck.

Some good boats to look at are located here , including the CS 36T JRP mentions.
Thanks for the input. I missed the cs 36 as a possible choice. She's no light weight, but the feedback seems to indicate a good sailing boat.
FWIW I think the CS 36T would be a much better, more versatile and offshore capable boat than the Contessa 35 - they have a solid rep and I know of several that are on the Mexico/Pacific cruise path. Owners are enthusiastic supporters....

sailingdog said: Maine Sail- Isn't it about time you upgraded to a bigger boat... Click to expand...
Hi to all who took the time to respond to my cry for help. I think the recommendation for the CS36 is a very good one. I will be looking at an older one in R.I. that is priced right, but probably needs some updating. I know the Contessa is an unknown, but for the price with the gear and if she surveys well it will be hard to pass up. I think it is hard to separate yourself from the boats you have owned, love and would love to own someday. I think if I where going to opt for a Canadian boat in my price range it would be the Niagara 35 in Maine. My boat partner saw her a few weeks ago. What a sweat heart. I would give up a little performance for the beauty and condition of this boat. To “Maine Sail” I must say you have a beauty that I know you are rightly proud of. I am a old grad of MMA in Castine and have been spoiled by the collection of great boats in Maine and the lavish attention they receive and deserve. The T37 is still my #1 choice, but they have such a range of condition and history. Most in my price range are looking at a re power in the near future. My front runner T37 has a w50 and I have not heard very many good things about this engine. If you read the re power article at tartan37.com it will curl your toes. Thanks again for the time and thoughts pkilty p.s. do we all own the same moister meter. It must be keeping Canada’s economy going…
As revealed on another thread, I would axe-murder my grandma for a Contessa 35. It's not as roomy as many boats, but it will go anywhere and Jemmy Rogers built em right.
Hi. I am the co-owner of a Contessa 35 which we sail out of Kingston on Lake Ontario. We have had her for 5 years and are slowly fixing, upgrading and replacing things as well as sailing her as much as our short summers permit. She is a joy to sail -muscular(if you can use that adjective to describe a boat), balanced, solid and fast. A real thoroughbred. I'm not sure about singlehanding though, if that's in your plans. Possible maybe but neither one of us have ever tried it. The self tailing winches on the boat you are looking at are a huge plus -we don't have them and wish we did but can't afford the substantial cost in replacing our original equipment. Good luck in your search.
Do you still own the Contessa 35 and are you interested in selling?
contessa no go Cs36t maybe Hi, I have found a Cs 36t pretty cheap. Maybe too cheap. Can you tell me what areas of your boat may have needed attention? Is the v drive reliable? The boat I am going to look at was built in 1983 and has been on the hard for two years with out a cover. I am not expecting her to cosmetically look like much, but she has a good inventory and the broker says she was put away by the yard so I am hoping no freezing problems. I know the hulls are solid glass, but like most boats the deck is balsa core. Did you find any areas on your boat that surprised you with moisture? I know I will have a long way to go to get this boat as "Bristol" as Maine Sails. I don't mind some elbow grease, but I'm not looking for a project boat. The Contessa is a great boat, but not comfy enough for the woman in my life. Thanks, Pat Kilty

SD, Thanks for the reply. I have read your informative post and have a the ct33 moisture meter. I have looked at a lot of boats in my life and think I have a pretty good eye for problems. The Canadian Sailcraft 36t although a great success is a new boat to me. I have found that even the finest boats with the best reputations have some issue that seems to show up over time. I was wondering if any current or past Cs36t owners have found any "what where they thinking" problems with thier boats. I recently have driven many miles to look at some boats that the brokers and or owners are just bold faced lying about. There sure is a lot of junk out there, but I know in this economy a cash buyer can do pretty well. So my search goes on. pkilty

It takes into consideration "reported" sail area, displacement and length at waterline. The higher the number the faster speed prediction for the boat. A cat with a number 0.6 is likely to sail 6kts in 10kts wind, a cat with a number of 0.7 is likely to sail at 7kts in 10kts wind. KSP = (Lwl*SA÷D)^0.5*0.5
