Design
The Southern Cross is a 1976 design by
Thomas Gilmer as a traditional, double-ended
cruising sailboat whose underbody has a fine
entry, firm midship section, and fine run aft.
The hull topside has a spoon bow, moderately
low freeboard, and a rockered sheer. It is
powered by a masthead sloop rig or a 24 hp
diesel inboard auxiliary. The deck has a trunk
cabin and aft cockpit for tiller steering. It is
typical of a type believed generally suitable
for alongshore and offshore cruising in
moderate weather with proper preparation,
adequate skills, and prudent seamanship.

Mast and Rigging
Some Items New in 2014
Mast & Standing Rigging: Masthead sloop sailplan. Wood bowsprit with
stainless cap bolted to the stemplate area. White-painted Kenyon aluminum mast
stepped on the cabin top with a teak compression post carrying the loads to the top of
the ballast. Standing rigging appears to be the original 1978 stainless steel 1x19 wire
with swaged terminals at both ends, Nav-Tec
center-stud stainless turnbuckles at the
bottom end and stainless bar stock
chainplates bolted through the hull skin for
the stays and the bulkheads and hanging
knees or accommodation liner for the
shrouds. The rigging schedule includes a
bobstay, a replacement headstay inside the
roller furling, split back stay, cap shroud
through a single spreader, and forward and
aft lower shrouds to the spreader base.
Sails & Running Rigging: White-
painted aluminum boom with fixed
gooseneck. New Doyle Sails Dacron
mainsail with 3 deep reefs, leech battens and
mainsail cover, sheeting from the traveler
spanning the seahood, with the sheet led aft
on the cabin top to a clutch and winch beside
the companionway. New ProFurl roller
furling on the headstay to fly the new Doyle
full-hoist #3 genoa with sun strip, sheeting
through adjustable toerail blocks to 2-speed
winches on the cockpit coamings. External
Dacron double-braid halyards, led to winches
with horn cleats on the mast sides.
