About
This Islander Freeport is such a rare combination of beauty, elegance, charm and utility that its hard to imagine who might have come up with such a design other than Bob Perry. DOTTIE SQUIBB was built by Islander Yachts in 1977. Her design was well ahead of her time and includes a deck salon, a huge T-Shaped cockpit, a raised helm seat, a walk-through transom and a mid-ships Pullman berth. She has a very favourable 2021 survey and has been lovingly and cleverly refitted and restored over the last 10 years by her current owner.
In the cockpit, her roomy comfort and practicality absolutely shine. She has a fold down swim step on the stern which doubles as a place for the helmsman to steer. Winches are double speed and self-tailing. There are 4 lazarettes with storage, one of which is a nicely done propane locker. She boasts a newer set of full electronics that interface with each other using NMEA 2000 technology. She also has a new Lofrans electric anchor windlass with remote and chain link counter. To top it all off, there is new cockpit canvas on order to be delivered in Spring 2022.
Her galley is to port when you come down the large companionway. It is extremely functional and boasts a pullout 4-burner propane stove, newer refrigeration, a microwave and relatively good counter space. To starboard is a comfortable nav station and electrical center.
The salon is an inviting place for lounging, dining, and visiting and allows for plenty of natural daylight. If you are a tall person, you probably will not bump your head or have to stoop. Settees on this boat are wide enough to be comfortable, and there is a fold-down dining table. To access the storage behind the cushions on the settees, one has to remove only the lower part of the cushion, for instance. That adds convenience that only someone who has had to haul cushions around a small cabin can appreciate.
Engine access is through the sole in the salon, and the panels easy to remove. Engine access is very good and shows off her 5-year-old Beta diesel engine.
DOTTIE SQUIBB is the popular Plan B model that offers captains quarters that most 36 foot boats only dream of having. Just ahead of the salon is the huge owners cabin with a generous double berth to port, complete with drawer storage underneath. To starboard there are double cedar lined hanging lockers, one deeper than the other due to the hull shape.
The forward area of the boat is entirely given over to the head which is huge. There is plenty of room to shower and there are two shelves to port that do make good extra storage. The counter to starboard takes the full length of this cabin and could double as a nice workshop. Fortunately there is a hatch in this space so you can let all the steam escape.
With a design provenance like Perry, you know this is a sweet sailing boat. This is a lot of boat in a 37.5 foot package and its no wonder that these are so popular. Its evident that this boat has been loved and she would be perfect for a couple looking to do some serious cruising.

This Regal 3350 Sport Cruiser is absolutely loaded with heat and air, genset, windlass, cockpit grill and large engines. If you compare with other pre-owned 3350`s on the market, there is a big difference in the details with this one - starting with the available power. The base power was the 260 hp 5.7Ls with single prop drives, up to the largest package, the 375 Hp 8.1L`s with Duo Prop drives- a $12K upgrade. With the twin 8.1Ls the 3350 is fast, nimble and a blast to drive.

Designed by Robert Perry, the Saga 35 is a serious long-range, blue water cruiser for the discerning sailor. Offering a muscular sail plan with a performance hull and appendage package, she is nonetheless robustly built with numerous thoughtful features, quality equipment, spacious living and gracious style. She is a highly desirable liveaboard vessel which is meant to go places and get there quickly, comfortably and safely. The current owner has updated her wisely - new epoxy bottom, new main and jib sails, new solar panels and more. She is clean, tidy and will be sure to impress.
Whisper II is a first generation C&C MkI. Built between 1974-1977, the 33 MkI became a popular choice for those looking for a cruiser for a small family, and could still perform in racing. Whisper II has seen many upgrades over the past few years. She is well equipped for those looking to cruise and spend time on the hook, and with her arsenal of sails can still be competitive as a club racer.
