Designed by David Pedrick and built by Freedom Yachts from 1993, this distinctive 35-footer stands out with its innovative free-standing fractional sloop rig that eliminates the need for stays and shrouds. This unique mast configuration gives the boat clean lines and simplified sail handling, making it particularly appealing to short-handed sailors and those seeking reduced maintenance. The hull features a modern fin keel with spade rudder design, delivering responsive handling and good windward performance. With a displacement of 14,611 pounds and moderate beam of 12 feet, the boat strikes a balance between stability and speed, while the substantial ballast ratio provides reassuring stiffness. The relatively low comfort ratio of 26.15 suggests this design prioritizes performance over pure cruising comfort. The Freedom 35 Pedrick works well for coastal cruising and club racing, where its unique rig and solid construction shine. The free-standing mast system reduces rigging complexity and eliminates the worry of stay failure, though it requires understanding of the specialized sailing characteristics. This fiberglass yacht represents Freedom Yachts' commitment to innovative design, offering sailors an alternative approach to traditional rigged boats with practical benefits for recreational sailing.
