Accommodations
Stepping below into the 1986 Young Sun 35, one is immediately struck by the warmth and richness of a bygone era. This is not the sterile, minimalist interior of a modern vessel; it is a true ship’s cabin, featuring incredible, high-quality teak joinery, detailed latticework, and a solid, traditional feel that immediately imparts a sense of safety and comfort for long-distance cruising. With 6’4” standing headroom in key areas, the interior feels unexpectedly spacious for a 35-foot vessel.Salon
The salon is designed for comfort and security at sea. It features a large, U-shaped dinette to port that seats six in comfort, with a beautifully varnished dining table that is adjustable for height. A straight settee sits opposite to starboard, offering an excellent sea berth. Storage is abundant, with cabinets and shelves flanking the hull above and behind the settees. The entire area is accented by a varnished teak and holly sole, contrasting with a white headliner to create a bright yet cozy atmosphere.Galley
The U-shaped galley, located to port at the base of the companionway, is designed for efficient, safe food preparation while underway. Features typically include:
To starboard, opposite the galley, lies a dedicated, large sit-down navigation station. It is perfectly sized for serious chart work, featuring a spacious table with storage for navigation instruments and charts underneath. The electrical panel is conveniently located above the chart table.Forward Stateroom
The forward cabin offers a private retreat with a generous V-berth, complete with a filler cushion to create a full double, providing over 6'4" of sleeping space. Excellent ventilation is provided by a large overhead opening hatch. The area features extensive storage with drawers, shelves, and a large hanging locker.Head & Quarter Berth
Situated between the salon and the forward cabin to port, the head is exceptionally well-designed for a boat of this size, featuring a marine toilet, sink basin in the countertop, and a shower. Aft of the nav station is a large quarter berth, which provides an additional cozy, secure sleeping area or excellent storage for extended voyages.Summary
The 1986 Young Sun 35 is a true, heavy-displacement cruiser that feels like a home, offering superior teak woodwork and a functional layout that is, quite simply, "incredibly roomy inside".
