Ta Chiao Fantasia 35 Sailboats for Sale

The Fantasia 35, designed by the legendary Bruce Bingham and built primarily by the Ta Chiao Yacht Building Co. in Taiwan, stands as a quintessential example of the "Taiwan Ferry" era of heavydisplacement, doubleended cruisers. Conceived in the early 1970s as a vessel capable of circumnavigation with a small crew, the Fantasia 35 prioritizes seakindliness and interior volume over raw speed. Its distinctive canoe stern, high freeboard, and cutter rig evoke a traditional aesthetic that remains popular among offshore traditionalists. While many were produced between 1974 and the mid1980s, the boat is best understood as a "pocket" bluewater voyager that punches well above its 35foot length in terms of storage capacity and structural robustness.
