1987 O'Day 35

The Oday 35 is an excellent sailing (PHRF 144), comfortable, solidly built cruiser with superior glass and gel-coat and a built-in swim-step. Interlude has just undergone an extensive refit from top to bottom, completed in Spring 2023 to bring her into Bristol condition. Starting with a two-owner, lightly sailed New England boat in excellent condition, EVERYTHING has been replaced or refurbished and improved.
