36.12' Cape Dory CD 36 Cutter

Affordable Blue Water Cruiser with newer Yanmar Diesel, Ideal for cruising the Chesapeake and beyond.

Easy cockpit layout for a couple, and a cutter rig that is simple to shorten if the wind picks up. The self tacking Staysail and Yankee combination is easy to tack without having to grind winches and the dutchman reefing on the mainsail allows simple raising and lowering of the main.

John Kretschmer recommends the CD 36 in his book, SAILBOATS FOR A SERIOUS OCEAN. It makes his top 25 list for blue water cruisers. "He said this about the Cape Dory/Robinhood 36 No list of serious sailboats would be complete without a Carl Alberg design. He designed many boats and the Cape Dory 36, which later morphed into the Robinhood 36, is a fine example of a capable bluewater cruiser. I am not a fan of full keel boats in general, however the moderate proportions of the CD 36, handsome sheer, balanced rig and stout construction easily persuaded me to include this boat in the book. Well proven and widely available, its a good choice for serious sailing".
