Seller's Description

The owner bought this boat in 1996

Standard features

Snow Bird is a prime example of a 1989 Schock 35 billed as The Premier Offshore One Design at it’s inception. This 35 is clean and dry throughout, her brightwork below can use some minor servicing, her cushions are plush and have years of use left in them. She is well outfitted for racing with newer Ullman sails and has a very good electronics package, functional galley, large Nav desk, enclosed head, and large aft quarter berths. Truly a versatile vessel, the Schock 35 is ready to race or cruise today.

Snow Bird has been used primarily as a weekend, Wednesday night casual fun racing sailboat in the PHRF Rating system. In the ECSA sailing region, her PHRF rating is 78. In the 2018 Offshore Circuit, Snow Bird was the overall winner. She is well outfitted for racing with newer Ullman carbon sails. Snow Bird has a complete electronics package, functional galley, large Nav desk, enclosed head, and large aft quarter berths (Sleep up to 8). Truly a versatile vessel.

Accommodation Description: Beginning the bow behind the enclosed chain locker Snow Bird has a large open forepeak, forming a clean and open sail storage area. Next aft to Port is the vanity with a single basin stainless sink, currently disconnected. Cabinet storage is outboard behind the mirrored sliding doors with a large storage hold below the counter. To Starboard is the Porta Potti situated behind a swinging door that either hides the toilet when not in use or swings around to close off the area from the main boat for a large private area to change or use the head. Aft of the head is the large open and bright main Salon. With its 6’ 3” headroom, white painted inside of coach roof. Plush maroon cushions line both sides of the boat with pilot berths above and storage throughout. Her mast is keel stepped through the center of the salon and at its base. Next aft to Starboard is the large navigation area with a comfortable forward-facing seat, top lifting nav desk with storage below. Against the hull are her electrical panels and battery switch amongst more storage areas above and below. Mounted to the desk you’ll find an upgraded Raymarine Chart Plotter GPS with repeaters on each side of the exterior bulkhead and an Ockam wind/boat speed repeater. To Port is the functional galley area with newer propane a minimal 2 burner gimbaled cooktop, single basin stainless sink, and the top-loading icebox. Plenty of storage outboard against the hull. Next aft, split by the fully enclosed fresh water-cooled Yanmar diesel, is the large aft quarter berths with plush maroon cushions. Next aft is the outside only accessible lazarette storage to make it easy to store and grab you docking gear from the cockpit and keep it out of the interior of your boat. The navigation, galley and motor cover has been re-varnished spring 2020.

Calculations

Hull Speed
9.0 kn
Classic: 7.28 kn

Hull Speed

The theoretical maximum speed that a displacement hull can move efficiently through the water is determined by it's waterline length and displacement. It may be unable to reach this speed if the boat is underpowered or heavily loaded, though it may exceed this speed given enough power. Read more.

Formula

Classic hull speed formula:

Hull Speed = 1.34 x √LWL

A more accurate formula devised by Dave Gerr in The Propeller Handbook replaces the Speed/Length ratio constant of 1.34 with a calculation based on the Displacement/Length ratio.

Max Speed/Length ratio = 8.26 ÷ Displacement/Length ratio.311
Hull Speed = Max Speed/Length ratio x √LWL

9.02 knots
Classic formula: 7.28 knots
Sail Area/Displacement
22.0
>20: high performance

Sail Area / Displacement Ratio

A measure of the power of the sails relative to the weight of the boat. The higher the number, the higher the performance, but the harder the boat will be to handle. This ratio is a "non-dimensional" value that facilitates comparisons between boats of different types and sizes. Read more.

Formula

SA/D = SA ÷ (D ÷ 64)2/3

  • SA: Sail area in square feet, derived by adding the mainsail area to 100% of the foretriangle area (the lateral area above the deck between the mast and the forestay).
  • D: Displacement in pounds.
22.03
<16: under powered
16-20: good performance
>20: high performance
Ballast/Displacement
45.0
>40: stiffer, more powerful

Ballast / Displacement Ratio

A measure of the stability of a boat's hull that suggests how well a monohull will stand up to its sails. The ballast displacement ratio indicates how much of the weight of a boat is placed for maximum stability against capsizing and is an indicator of stiffness and resistance to capsize.

Formula

Ballast / Displacement * 100

45.0
<40: less stiff, less powerful
>40: stiffer, more powerful
Displacement/Length
174.0
100-200: light

Displacement / Length Ratio

A measure of the weight of the boat relative to it's length at the waterline. The higher a boat’s D/L ratio, the more easily it will carry a load and the more comfortable its motion will be. The lower a boat's ratio is, the less power it takes to drive the boat to its nominal hull speed or beyond. Read more.

Formula

D/L = (D ÷ 2240) ÷ (0.01 x LWL)³

  • D: Displacement of the boat in pounds.
  • LWL: Waterline length in feet
173.99
<100: ultralight
100-200: light
200-300: moderate
300-400: heavy
>400: very heavy
Comfort Ratio
18.5
<20: lightweight racing boat

Comfort Ratio

This ratio assess how quickly and abruptly a boat’s hull reacts to waves in a significant seaway, these being the elements of a boat’s motion most likely to cause seasickness. Read more.

Formula

Comfort ratio = D ÷ (.65 x (.7 LWL + .3 LOA) x Beam1.33)

  • D: Displacement of the boat in pounds
  • LWL: Waterline length in feet
  • LOA: Length overall in feet
  • Beam: Width of boat at the widest point in feet
18.52
<20: lightweight racing boat
20-30: coastal cruiser
30-40: moderate bluewater cruising boat
40-50: heavy bluewater boat
>50: extremely heavy bluewater boat
Capsize Screening
2.2
>2.0: better suited for coastal cruising

Capsize Screening Formula

This formula attempts to indicate whether a given boat might be too wide and light to readily right itself after being overturned in extreme conditions. Read more.

Formula

CSV = Beam ÷ ³√(D / 64)

  • Beam: Width of boat at the widest point in feet
  • D: Displacement of the boat in pounds
2.18
<2: better suited for ocean passages
>2: better suited for coastal cruising

Notes

Based on earlier SANTANA 35 (1978), with deeper keel and taller (masthead) rig.
An updated model was being built as of 2011.
