Cs 36

Designed by Raymond Wall and built by Canadian Sailcraft from 1978 to 1987, this 36-footer represents a well-balanced approach to coastal cruising and club racing. With 400 hulls produced over nearly a decade, the CS 36 earned a solid reputation among sailors seeking a versatile performer that could handle weekend races and extended cruising with equal competence. The design features a fin keel with rudder mounted on a partial skeg, providing good directional stability while maintaining responsive handling characteristics. At 15,500 pounds displacement with 6,500 pounds of ballast, she offers reassuring stability for coastal passages while remaining lively enough for spirited sailing. The fiberglass hull with balsa-cored deck construction delivers strength without excessive weight. Her masthead sloop rig carries 822 square feet of sail area, giving her adequate power in light to moderate conditions. The moderate comfort ratio of 29.47 suggests reasonable motion at sea, while the capsize screening value of 1.85 indicates good stability for coastal work. With a hull speed of 7.25 knots, she'll keep pace with similar-sized cruiser-racers. This Canadian-built yacht appeals to sailors wanting a capable coastal cruiser that won't embarrass itself at the yacht club's Wednesday night races, offering the versatility many sailors seek in a mid-sized sailboat.
