The design can be confused with the 1980 Hunter 36, 2008 Hunter 36-2 (sold as the Hunter 36) and the 2001 Hunter 36 Legend, all sailboats with similar names by the same builder.[2]

Production

The design was built by Hunter Marine in the United States between 1990 and 1995, but it is now out of production.[1][2]

Design

The Hunter 36 Vision is a recreational keelboat, built predominantly of fiberglass, with wood trim. It has a free-standing fractional sloop rig, with a fully battened mainsail, a raked stem, a reverse transom, an internally mounted spade-type rudder controlled by a wheel and a fixed wing keel. It displaces 15,500 lb (7,031 kg) and carries 5,900 lb (2,676 kg) of ballast.[1]

The boat has a draft of 4.67 ft (1.42 m) with the standard keel fitted.[1]

The boat is fitted with a Japanese Yanmar diesel engine. The fuel tank holds 35 U.S. gallons (130 L; 29 imp gal) and the fresh water tank has a capacity of 75 U.S. gallons (280 L; 62 imp gal).[1]

The design has a PHRF racing average handicap of 144 with a high of 150 and low of 135. It has a hull speed of 7.46 kn (13.82 km/h).[3]

gollark: I suppose they also have more mathy software - my calculator can do stuff like automatic equation solving and whatnot which I can't easily do on my computer - but I'm sure there's something for that.
gollark: I'm aware. But it's kind of weird that they cost so much still.
gollark: It can plot graphs nicely using several different web applications.
gollark: Graphing ones cost something like £100. My *phone*, which has a very fast (comparatively...) processor, 32GB of storage, a 5" touchscreen and wireless networking, cost less than that.
gollark: Calculators seem weirdly expensive for what you get. Fancier ones anyway.
