WISSAHICKON is the most well-kept Intrepid 35’ available and possibly the best anywhere to be seen. Specifically built for ease of access and repair in mind, her systems are simple and purpose-built. However, she is also a true, proven bluewater cruiser. Her designer, James McCurdy of McCurdy & Rhodes, was her first owner and sailed her as far as the Azores with his family. All three of her owners have lavished her with care – especially the current one.

Living space is a luxury you can afford on WISSAHICKON. A boat is, after all, your home for a weekend, every weekend, for your vacation and every minute that you are aboard. Your boat should have room for people, the gear they want (and need) to be comfortable and for those personal touches that mark your boat as an extension of your personality.
WISSAHICKON has the room for active sailing and active living. From cockpit to cabin sole, you'll find that the Intrepid 35 was designed and built with real, full-sized people in mind. There is standing headroom for six-footers throughout the main cabin. Five adults can sleep comfortably on deep, secure berths that are all at least 6' long. There is privacy between the main and forward cabin. The cockpit is large, with a bridge deck that makes a great cocktail table. There are numerous lockers, traps and alcoves for stowage of clothing, linens, gear, cameras and everything else you need to enjoy life aboard.
The design features a fin keel for low wetted surface and excellent upwind performance. A spade rudder is hung well aft and is protected by a skeg. This gives excellent steering response under sail or power, while the skeg contributes to steering stability. It also guards the rudder from bumps, bangs and foulings.
The main cabin area encompasses main salon, galley area, navigation station and port aft quarter berth. The main bulkhead, interior cabin sides and principle joinery are teak. Storage areas outboard of settee are faced with white Formica laminate and trimmed with teak. Where exposed, interior hull sides are sheathed using ash battens. Cabin overhead is white FRP liner. Lighting is by overhead dome lights, (6) in the main salon, nav station and galley. Ventilation is provided by a dorade vent located in the passageway leading to the forward cabin, (4) opening ports and Bowmar opening hatch in overhead.
The main salon has settee seating/berthing port and starboard. Port settee slides out to create a double berth. Poly water tanks are located under the settees. A fold-down table/book case of white Formica laminate with teak trim is mounted to the port forward bulkhead.
The galley is aft of the main salon to starboard of the companionway. Galley equipment includes: stove with oven, large icebox located under the galley counter and manually-supplied fresh water to stainless steel sink basin. Generous storage is provided outboard of the galley counter in cabinets.
The navigation station/quarter berth is located aft of the main cabin to port of the companionway. Navigation station is sit-down and forward-facing. Seating for the nav desk is at the forward end of the quarter berth. The quarter berth extends aft under the starboard cockpit seat locker, providing sleeping space for one.
Head area is aft of forward cabin portside of centerline. The area to starboard of centerline is a passageway between the forward and main cabins with a large hanging locker furthest outboard to starboard. Head features a stainless steel sink basin supplied with fresh water by means of foot pump. Cabinetry and counter for sink basin is white Formica laminate with teak trim. Teak towel rack. Manually operated head, ventilation supplied by opening port and dorade vent. 12 volt lighting.
Deck, cockpit and cabin exterior surfaces are of Gelcoat on both smooth and non-skid areas. Exterior teak features include toe rails, cockpit coamings (optional), hand/grab rails, cabin eyebrow, dorade boxes and companionway trim. A shallow anchor well at the bow is covered by a teak hatch. There are (3) storage/sail lockers located in the cockpit. Starboard and aft lockers are deep lockers with ample storage capacity. The port locker is shallow for storage of winch handles etc. Stainless steel bow rail, stern rail and lifeline stanchions. Coated wire lifelines with openings at stern rail, both port and starboard. Stainless steel stemhead fitting, backstay tang and chainplates. Bowmar opening hatches in main and forward cabin overheads. (8) opening ports.
The hull is fabricated using conventional fiberglass (shingle-skin E glass mat/roving) construction. Ballast is externally mounted to a fin keel. The rudder is skeg mounted. Hull to deck joint is an inward turning hull flange bedded and bolted to the deck, capped by a thru-bolted teak toe rail.
