JASON 35

About the JASON 35

Thanks to designer Ted Brewer for providing corrections and images. Owner plans available from the designers web site. A Pilot House version was also available. Miller Marine was located on Bainbridge Island, WA, USA.

Designed by Ted Brewer and built by Miller Marine Corp. in the USA, the Jason 35 is a rare, heavy-displacement cutter with only 40 hulls built in 1972. Its substantial build quality and classic lines reflect Brewer's reputation for robust offshore cruising yachts.

Best for:

This boat suits experienced coastal cruisers and bluewater adventurers who prioritize seakeeping and comfort over speed, particularly those willing to manage the maintenance demands of a 1970s classic.

Bluewater capability:

With a displacement of 16800.0 lb and a capsize ratio of 1.75, the Jason 35 is inherently stable and well-suited for offshore passages, provided critical structural and mechanical systems are maintained.

Comparables:

Comparable to other Ted Brewer designs like the Cal 3-35 or O'Day 36 from the same era, these boats share similar heavy displacement, fin keels, and cutter rigs aimed at safe offshore passage making.
