Defender 35
12 / 48 - score 59%
The Defender 35 is a 35.27ft masthead sloop designed by Eva M. Hollman and built in fiberglass by Dekker & Sons (Jachtwerf F. Dekker en Zonen) between 1978 and 1985.
9 units have been built.
The Defender 35 is a light sailboat which is a good performer. It is very stable / stiff and has a low righting capability if capsized. It is best suited as a day-boat. The fuel capacity is originally small. There is a very short water supply range.
This boat has an average score but ranks in the top quarter. It seems difficult to do much better. It is one of the best possible tradeoff for this request.
