Endeavour 35 Buyer's Guide
Shopping the brokerage market for an Endeavour 35 means looking at a Bruce Kelley design built by Endeavour Yacht Corporation from 1983 through 1987, with approximately 300 hulls completed. She is a 35-foot masthead sloop with a fin keel and skeg-hung rudder, a beamy mid-1980s cruiser whose six-berth interior and 76-gallon water capacity suit extended coastal living. Most buyers will meet her as a used boat with a history of private ownership rather than a fresh restoration.
Layouts on the Used Market
Owner three-cabin arrangements are the more common version in circulation, though two-cabin boats appear as well. Ex-charter examples are a common sight, and their higher cycle counts mean wear on salon cushions, head systems, and the 15-gallon holding tank plumbing should be expected. The standard plan sleeps six, so a family or couple with guests is well served either way; the three-cabin layout simply trades some saloon settee length for a private aft berth.
Equipment and Common Upgrades
A bimini, autopilot, and dodger are commonly fitted and should be treated as baseline cruising gear rather than upgrades. Air conditioning, solar, and a spinnaker are often seen and materially improve liveaboard comfort and power independence. Beyond those, a buyer will less commonly find a watermaker or lithium batteries—upgrades that signal an owner who invested in long-term off-grid use. A chartplotter or radar falls into the same occasional category and is worth verifying against the listed nav suite.
What to Inspect
The hull coring places closed-cell polyvinyl and plywood between fiberglass layers in the cabin top, deck, seats, and cockpit sole cored cabin top, deck, seat, and cockpit sole areas, so any soft spot underfoot or stained headliner points to a compromised core. The hull-to-deck flange is bedded in adhesive-sealant and thru-bolted, but the teak cap must be lifted or sounding-tested for hidden joint weepage. At the rudder, the stainless post passes through the hull on a stuffing box; confirm it is dry and the foam blade shows no gelcoat crazing.
Availability and Buyer's Takeaway
These boats turn up in the United States and Canada. A short inspection checklist: sound the cored deck and cockpit sole for softness, confirm the hull-deck joint and teak cap are dry, check the rudder post stuffing box for leaks, verify the autopilot and canvas are present, and assess whether solar or a watermaker has already been added for off-grid plans.
