Design

The Sun Odyssey 36 is a recreational keelboat, built predominantly of fiberglass, with wood trim. The Hull is made from solid polyester fiberglass, with Kevlar reinforcement, while the deck is of balsa and polyester fiberglass sandwich construction. It has a masthead sloop rig, with a deck-stepped mast, two sets of swept spreaders and aluminum spars with discontinuous stainless steel wire rigging. The hull has a raked stem, a reverse transom with steps and a swim platform, an internally mounted spade-type rudder controlled by a wheel and a fixed fin keel or optional shoal-draft keel. The fin keel model displaces 128200NaN0 and carries 42220NaN0 of cast iron ballast, while the shoal-draft version displaces 125660NaN0 and carries 39680NaN0 of cast iron ballast.[1] [2] [3] [4]

The boat has a draft of 6.67feet with the standard keel and 4.83feet with the optional shoal draft keel.[1] [2]

The boat is fitted with a Japanese Yanmar 3GM diesel engine of 300NaN0 for docking and maneuvering. 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, an open O-shaped settee around an octagonal table on the starboard side and two aft cabins, each with a double berth. The galley is located on the port side, amidships opposite the salon table. The galley is equipped with a two-burner stove, an ice box and a double sink. A navigation station is aft of the galley, on the port side. There are two heads, one each just forward of the aft cabins, plus a sink in the bow cabin. Cabin maximum headroom is 740NaN0.[1] [2] [3] [4]

For sailing downwind the design may be equipped with a symmetrical spinnaker of 1076square feet.[3] [4]

The design has a hull speed of 7.36kn.[2] [3] [4]
