The MG 335 is a British sailboat, that was designed by Tony Castro and first built in 1986. The design is out of production.[1][2][3][4]
Production
The boat was built by Northshore Yachts in the United Kingdom between 1986 and 1994.[1][4][5]
Design
The MG 335 is a small recreational keelboat, built predominantly of glassfibre. It has a fractional sloop rig, an internally-mounted spade-type rudder and a fixed fin keel. It displaces 8,900 lb (4,037 kg) and carries 3,800 lb (1,724 kg) of ballast.[1][2][4]
The boat has a draft of 6.25 ft (1.91 m) with the standard keel.[1]
The boat is fitted with a Volvo model 2002 diesel engine. The fuel tank holds 25 U.S. gallons (95 L; 21 imp gal) and the fresh water tank has a capacity of 55 U.S. gallons (210 L; 46 imp gal).[1][4]
The boat has a PHRF racing average handicap of 138 with a high of 138 and low of 138. It has a hull speed of 7.05 kn (13.06 km/h).[2][4]
The MG 335 design was developed into the CS 34 in 1989, also designed by Castro and built by CS Yachts in Canada . The CS 34 differs in that it has a taller mast with a masthead rig and higher displacement than the MG 335.[1][4][6]
