Description

For Sale: Endurance 35 Bluewater Cruiser

Lying: Corralejo, Fuerteventura, Canary Islands

VAT Paid | Fully Rebuilt | Liveaboard Ready | Seaworthy



This Endurance 35, designed by Peter Ibold and built by Windboats Ltd. in Wroxham, England, is a well-proven bluewater ketch with an impressive pedigree. Constructed in ferro-cement and launched in 1980, she has completed two global circumnavigations, the second ending in Portugal in 2021. Since then, she has been based in the Canary Islands, serving as a well-maintained and thoughtfully adapted liveaboard.

Undergoing a major professional refit between 2015 and 2016, and receiving further technical upgrades and re-fitting in 2021, this vessel strikes an excellent balance between seaworthy capability and practical comfort. She retains the robust charm of a traditional cruising yacht, while offering modern electrical systems, improved storage, and a cozy, welcoming interior suited for long-term living.
