OWNER’S COMMENTS:

‘We commissioned DSHIGIT II as a fast, safe, comfortable, and sea-kindly cruising yacht for our young family. She was built to our specifications and exhibited at the Southampton Boat Show in 2008. We first cruised on the Northumbrian and Scottish coast, then ventured further to the Orkney, Shetland, Denmark, and Germany, before bringing her to the Clyde. DSHIGIT II is exceptionally well-mannered and balanced. Her windward performance is second to none, and she is fast even in light airs. Her cockpit offers excellent protection from the elements, and despite her low topsides, she is a very dry boat. Her lines are admired wherever we go. DSHIGIT II was never raced, and has always been professionally maintained, no expense spared. We are putting her reluctantly on the market and only because we now need a proper second cabin. We hope that DSHIGIT II will bring her next owner as much happiness and adventure as she had brought us.’

PRESS REVIEW:

‘The Mystery 35 is a pleasure to look at and even more of a pleasure to sail. She is good for racing or cruising alike, but with her narrow body and considerable overhangs, she doesn’t have as much interior space as most modern boats. If you’re looking for a new boat that’s a little bit different, and looks, performance and seaworthiness are all important to you, then you really should take the Mystery out for a trial sail.’

‘Once you’ve sailed this boat you realise how much you’ve missed getting to grips with a proper cruiser. The Mystery 35 is a boat that has been designed and built to be sailed, whatever the weather. She’s snug, secure, easy to handle and has a performance to embarrass plenty of the current production cruisers, especially upwind.’
