The Hunter 36-2 is an American sailboat, that was designed by Glenn Henderson and first built in 2008.[1][2][3]

The Hunter 36-2 is a development of the slightly smaller 2000 model Hunter 356.[1][3]

The design was sold as the Hunter 36 but is now usually referred to as the 36-2 to differentiate it from the unrelated 1980 Hunter 36. It can also be confused with the 1990 Hunter 36 Vision and the 2001 Hunter 36 Legend, all sailboats with similar names by the same builder.[4]

Production

[edit]

The boat was built by Hunter Marine in the United States, but it is now out of production.[1][3]

Design

[edit]
Hunter 36-2

The Hunter 36-2 is a small recreational keelboat, built predominantly of fiberglass. It has a B&R rig, an internally-mounted spade-type rudder, a reverse transom, mast-furling mainsail and a fixed fin keel. It displaces 13,900 lb (6,305 kg) and carries 5,023 lb (2,278 kg) of ballast.[1][3]

The boat has a draft of 6.42 ft (1.96 m) with the standard keel and 4.92 ft (1.50 m) with the optional shoal draft keel.[1][3]

The boat is fitted with a Japanese Yanmar diesel engine of 29 hp (22 kW). The fuel tank holds 38 U.S. gallons (140 L; 32 imp gal) and the fresh water tank has a capacity of 75 U.S. gallons (280 L; 62 imp gal).[1][3]

The design has a hull speed of 7.49 kn (13.87 km/h).[3]
