Design
The Cal 35 is a recreational keelboat, built predominantly of fiberglass sandwich construction, with wood trim. It has a masthead sloop rig with aluminium spars, a raked stem, a reverse transom, an internally mounted spade-type rudder controlled by a wheel and a fixed fin keel. It displaces {{convert|13000|lb|kg|0|abbr=on}} and carries {{convert|5200|lb|kg|0|abbr=on}} of ballast.
The boat has a draft of {{convert|5.00|ft|m|abbr=on}} with the standard keel and {{convert|6.00|ft|m|abbr=on}} with the optional deep draft keel.
The boat is fitted with a Universal diesel engine of {{convert|32|hp|kW|0|abbr=on}} for docking and maneuvering. The fuel tank holds {{convert|33|u.s.gal}} and the fresh water tank has a capacity of {{convert|90|u.s.gal}}.
Ventilation consists of four opening ports in the main cabin, plus two in the bow cabin. There is a dorade vent over the head. There are also four fixed ports in the main cabin, plus fixed, flush-mounted deadlights over the galley and the forward berths.
The mainsail is sheeted to a mainsheet traveler on the cabin roof. The genoa is sheeted to tracks and is controlled with two-speed winches. There are two halyard winches. The mainsail boom has a topping lift and two internal reefs, an internal outhaul and a boom vang with a 4:1 mechanical advantage.
The design has a PHRF racing average handicap of 136.
