The SHE 36 is a British sailboat that was designed by Sparkman & Stephens as an International Offshore Rule Three-Quarter Ton class racer-cruiser and first built in 1977.[1] [2] [3] [4]

The SHE 36 is a development of Sparkman & Stephens' design 2166, with the rudder moved aft, giving a longer waterline, a deep keel and other changes. The basic Sparkman & Stephens' design 2166 is also used by the Aura A35, Hughes 35 and the North Star 1500.[1] [2]

Production

The design was built by South Hants Engineering in the United Kingdom, starting in 1977, but it is now out of production.[1] [2] [5] [6]

Design

The SHE 36 is a recreational keelboat, built predominantly of glassfibre, with wood trim. It has a masthead sloop rig, a raked stem, a reverse transom, a skeg-mounted rudder controlled by a wheel and a fixed swept fin keel. It displaces 145800NaN0 and carries 54000NaN0 of lead ballast.[1] [2]

The boat has a draft of 6.3feet with the standard keel.[1] [2]

The boat is fitted with a Danish Bukh A/S diesel engine of 200NaN0 for docking and manoeuvring. The fuel tank holds and the fresh water tank has a capacity of .[1] [2]

The design has sleeping accommodation for six people, with a double "V"-berth in the bow cabin, two straight settees and a pilot berth in the main cabin and an aft cabin with a single berth on the port side. The galley is located on the starboard side at the companionway ladder. The galley is equipped with a two-burner stove and a sink. A navigation station is opposite the galley, on the port side. The head is located just aft of the bow cabin on the port side.[1] [2]

The design has a hull speed of 7.28kn.[2]

Operational history

The boat was supported by an active class club, the IOR 3/4 Ton Class, which organized racing events until its demise in 1994.[7] [8]
