Maxus 35 Buyer's Guide
Shopping the brokerage market for a Maxus 35 means looking at a category-A ocean cruiser introduced in 2022, built by Northman Shipyard and designed by the D&S Yacht Design office. The boats on offer are young, and the documented differences between them are driven less by age than by the layout and keel choices the builder made available from the start.
Layouts on the Used Market
The Maxus 35 appears in two or three cabin configurations. The two-cabin version places the toilet at the foot of the starboard companionway, separate from the shower, with a dedicated shower cabin and a hatch from the shower giving access to a large hold; the aft locker is separated from that hold by an opening panel. The three-cabin version trades some of that separation for additional berths. Both share a spacious saloon with good headroom, a lighted mess, and a minimalist chart table raised to leave space for a bed. The interior is bathed in natural light and entirely covered with LED lighting. A fully functional kitchenette with induction hob, refrigerator, sink, and ample storage is standard across layouts.
Equipment and Common Upgrades
On the used market, boats are commonly fitted with inverter, freezer, hot water, autopilot, chartplotter, and life raft. The Northman Prestige Collection offers fabric and color options, so interior trim varies by original owner taste rather than as a retrofit indicator. The standard 29 horsepower diesel is installed in either shaft line or saildrive, and the steering wheel and rudder assembly is a Jefa unit with a very deep rudder blade. Keel configuration is a factory choice: long or short L-shape, or alternative chine keels for dry berthing, with immersions of 1.95 and 1.50 meters and a twin keel version that remained under study at launch and is not expected in early brokerage stock.
What to Inspect
The documented record shows no reported structural defects or safety-relevant known issues for the Maxus 35. Verify the as-built keel type, since long and short L-shape immersions differ. Confirm which engine installation is present — shaft line or saildrive — as that affects service access. Check the concealed rigging beneath the double canopy and the two-spreader mast with shrouds affixed directly to the hull exterior for signs of wear at the hull penetrations.
Availability and Buyer's Takeaway
Typical markets for the Maxus 35 are Spain, Croatia, and the Netherlands. Given the young fleet, buyers should expect category-A cruisers with modern glazing, separable shower and toilet in the two-cabin layout, and hand-built GRP construction.
- Confirm keel type and immersion for intended cruising ground
- Verify shaft line vs saildrive engine installation
- Inspect hull-exterior shroud attachments and concealed rigging
