Hunter 36-2

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

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

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.

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

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 13900 lb and carries 5023 lb of ballast.

The boat has a draft of 6.42 ft with the standard keel and 4.92 ft with the optional shoal draft keel.
