Overview

Design and Reputation

The Mystery 35 is widely respected as a fast, capable cruising yacht with genuine pedigree. Designed to reward good sailing while remaining safe and manageable, the Mystery 35 has earned a strong following among experienced sailors. Because of this reputation, the best examples are rarely available.

Presentation and Condition

‘Francesca of Fowey’ stands out as one of the finest Mystery 35s currently afloat. She is presented in outstanding condition throughout and immediately gives the impression of a yacht that has been carefully and consistently improved. As a result, she feels far more modern than her build year would suggest.

Upgrades and Investment

Her long-term owners have invested heavily and intelligently, focusing on the areas that matter most. Recent major works include new sails, a full rigging renewal, a topsides respray, and a complete Coppercoat refresh. All of this work has been carried out by respected specialists at Mylor, which adds confidence to both quality and execution.

Sailing Capability

The Mystery 35 is known for her balance and performance, and this example fully reflects that reputation. With her updated rig, sails, and hull finish, she offers a sailing experience that feels sharp, responsive, and confidence-inspiring. This makes her equally enjoyable for coastal cruising and longer passages.

Overall Impression

Overall, ‘Francesca of Fowey’ represents a rare opportunity to acquire a top-tier Mystery 35 that has been properly upgraded rather than simply maintained. Because the major work has already been completed, she offers a straightforward and rewarding ownership proposition.
