Fantasia 35

• By Michael Robertson
• Updated: May 22, 2013

Once you know that Bruce Bingham drew the lines of the Flicka—a full-keeled, 20-foot sprite with the interior space of boats several feet longer—it makes sense that he also penned the Fantasia 35. This capable cruiser, with its portly hull and distinctive round portlights, boasts 7 feet of headroom and a layout that owners of many 40-footers would envy.

A center cockpit in a boat this size is a rare but brilliant approach that allows for a three-cabin layout. The aft cabin has a portside double berth. It’s accessed through a stand-up passage on the starboard side that doubles as the head, while the same space on the port side contains a workshop with standing headroom and lots of storage.

In the main cabin, the galley resides along the starboard hull, and an L-shaped dinette is to port. A split V-berth and plenty of storage take up most of the forward cabin. This ambitious interior layout, a pleasing mix of comfort and practicality, works well. The woodwork and cabinetry are typical of Taiwanese boats of the era: teak bulkheads with vertical staving and arched cabin doors. For its size, the Fantasia carries astounding quantities of water and diesel. The auxiliary is beneath the cockpit and accessible on three sides.

Topside, the cozy center cockpit is perched high, elevated by the generous freeboard of the canoe-stern hull. The decks are narrow alongside the cabin, and the sail plan is pure sloop, although a staysail stay was an option. Early Fantasias had heavy wooden masts and booms, but later models were delivered with much lighter aluminum spars.

Aspects of the Fantasia’s sailing characteristics could be attributed to its history. Adventure Yachts commissioned the design from Bingham in the early 1970s. The two parties had their differences, and Bingham wasn’t pleased when he saw the prototype in 1975. Changes were made, and the first 50 boats delivered were fine offshore cruising yachts but had pronounced weather helm. Many owners lived with it, but others, to improve handling, made changes that included adding a bowsprit to shift sail area forward and the addition of a skeg aft of the rudder.

On hull number 51 onward (78 were built in total), the rudder was moved to a skeg about 4 feet aft of the full keel, and the steering was switched from hydraulic to mechanical. This Mark II, as it became known, was much better balanced when under way.

Many owners have replaced the original black-iron fuel tanks and the raw water-cooled Yanmars. Potential buyers should take note that some chainplates weren’t secured as designed. The original icebox insulation leaves a lot to be desired. Teak decks installed on a few boats may be prone to leaks.

Several of these sturdy little ships, including both Mark Is and Mark IIs, have cruised extensively. The owners of hull number 61 and hull number 71 report that the Fantasia’s best point of sail is a broad reach in 15 to 25 knots. The boat tends to yaw dead downwind and doesn’t point well. Because the Fantasia is a heavy-displacement cruising boat, prospective owners should consider a good inventory of light-air sails.

Asking prices begin at about $35,000 and rise to $65,000 for nicer examples of the Mark II. For someone looking for a lot of room in a small, robust package, the Fantasia is an affordable option.

Rig and Sails

Auxilary power, accomodations, calculations.

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.

Classic hull speed formula:

Hull Speed = 1.34 x √LWL

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

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.

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.

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.

Ballast / Displacement * 100

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.

D/L = (D ÷ 2240) ÷ (0.01 x LWL)³

• D: Displacement of the boat in pounds.
• LWL: Waterline length in feet

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.

Comfort ratio = D ÷ (.65 x (.7 LWL + .3 LOA) x Beam 1.33 )

• D: Displacement of the boat in pounds
• LOA: Length overall in feet
• Beam: Width of boat at the widest point in feet

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.

CSV = Beam ÷ ³√(D / 64)

Hello, I own a Fantasia 35 in Miami. Still stuck on land and coastal cruising when I can but hoping to go very far one day. Pictures of my boat are in my profile "Capjules" If you also own a Fantasia 35 drop me a line, let me know where you're at and what you are up to. If you are looking for a great liveaboard and/or blue water cruiser and want more info on this boat you can go to www.fantasia35.com . you are also welcome to ask me any questions. Fair Winds, Jules Robinson Miami, FL

Fantasia Looking at a Fantasia in rough shape. How do you like your boat? How does it perform in light air?  

I love it Hi, for me the Fantasia 35 by a long shot is the best use of space in a 35 ft boat. I had an Oday 39 and I am much happier space wise on the Fantasia. This boat is on the slow side but it does better than it's ratios would suggest. If speed is what you are looking for this is the wrong boat. If you want a boat that is bullet proof, that you trust in a gale and that is also very very comfortable to live on, for me there is nothing better. also note that there is the MKI model and the MKII model, there are differences in the hull and rig and also the interior. Let me know how it goes. Jules  

Irong fuel tank Also be ware of the black iron fuel tank, they can rust on the inside and the previous owner of my boat had to replace it with a 47 gal aluminum tank. he left me very detailed instructions of how he changed the tank, even a blue print of the new tank. let me know if you want a copies.  

Light Air In light air with main and 130 genoa she will do half the wind speed beam reach to down wind, slows down a bit as you head up wind. now i have been told on cutters that up wind it's better to use the staysail and 110 jib so I am changing to that combination to gain upwind speed and in light air I will take them down and use a drifter. on other boats I have used a drifter from dead down wind to a beam reach and in very light air up to close hauled without getting out of balance. the drifter should generally improve upon the boat speed I reported above, so it's not bad for a boat this heavy. if you are ever in miami you can sail her yourself and see.  

Aft berth Hi Jules Im looking into Fantasia, could you or anyone else please tell me the length of the aft berth Cheers Gab  

Aft Berth Hi sorry have forgotten to measure. but I am 5'11" tall and I can sleep on either side of the bed with no problem the midships berth is longer than the outboard berth as the hull is curving inwards along the side of the bed but I can sleep on either side. keep in mind your feet, if you are as tall as I am, partially lie under the cabinet that houses the steering radial, outpilot drive etc... so if I lie legs flat I am fine, if I cross one foot over the other the upper foot is pressing up on the bottom of the cabinet, sometimes watching TV I do this and after a while it bothers, but I don't sleep that way so it's not a problem. I do have a custom mattress that is very thick so if the boat you get has a thinner matress you may be able to cross your feet and not come into contact with the cabinet. wider at the top and narrower at the end with the rudder stock coming up into that cabinet I spoke of, so the rudder stock would be between your feet and your partners. will try to get you the exact demension asap, Jules  

Aft Bed Dimentions OK here we go; 51" wide at the head 41' wide at the foot 76" long inboard berth 80" long outboard berth 96" diagonal go see a fantasia 35 and you will be amazed at how spacious they are inside, I was totally blown away the first time I saw one on the inside. I bought it and have never regreted it. Keep in mind there is a MKI and a MKII version, be sure to know the differences before you buy.  

Thanks a million Hi Jules Thanks a million, now I just have to sell my boat... if you know anyone on the west coast interested in a CT 34 send them my way... www.theparrotct34.com I might be going in Miami in april to ship a boat up to New York, If that's the case maybe I can buy you a beer in exchange for a tour of your baby Cheers Gab

Aloha - i'm in the market for a blue water cruiser that my husband and i will live aboard. the Fantasia 35 looks to have everything we need. It's small enough to singlehand and big enough to store our bikes and have friends visit. I've heard a few things about water and fuel tanks rusting. i also have been told to check for blistering on the bottom from osmosis. does anyone iknow if that's an issue. why aren't there that many for sale. is it cause there aren't that many or cause the owners love them so much they'd never sell? or cause they're crap and have been sailed to the sea floor? we're going to look at on next month and was looking for some advice as far as what to look for in problem areas. Any advice?  

It's a great boat. Hi, I bought my 1980 fantasia 35 one year ago and so far have never regreted it. I love it. I have the original stainless water tanks and they are fine but the previous owner replaced the black iron fuel tank back in the nineties as it did rust out. he had to remove part of the settee and floor to do it and left me the detailed instructions if you would like a copy. the original tank was about 130 gallons, and to put back the same size tank too much of the interior would have to be taken apart so he put in a 47 gal aluminum tank, which is plenty for an engine that burns 1/2 gal per hour. and that also freed up a good amount of storage space under the floor in the forward cabin for additional storage. my surveyor noted some blister repairs had been done to the hull but very little and mine has no blisters at this time in miami's warm waters. besides the hull is so thick that some blisters are nothing to worry about. take note that there is the ealier MKI model and the later MKII model, there are some very significant diferences between the two. mine is a MKII. You can see all of that on www.fantasia35.com . you can see how this boat was built rock solid with no corners cut. 29 year later I have no deck delamination. amazing. and comfort for living is second to none in a 35 footer. Let me know if you have any other questions or if I can be of further help. Good Luck, Jules  

Re: It's a great boat. i've looked at that website many times and can't find out where they show the differences between the two. i'm not sure how to know which one ours is either. Does the year determine that? The one we're looking at is at this link http://www.yachtworld.com/core/list...urrency=USD&access=Public&listing_id=2905&url = We won't be looking at it until next month and i'm curious to know which one it is and what the differneces are. can you tell me where that is on the fantasia35 website? i would love to see the plans you have for replacing the fuel tank. i was wondering if the floors or boat had to be dismantled in some way. that sounds like a HUGE job. you can send that and any other information to [email protected] thanks for your time.
