Islander 36

The Islander 36 sloop is an inboard-powered, family cruiser and weekend racer with berths for six.

The I-36, as she is commonly referred to, is a mid-volume production, California-built, fiberglass-reinforced vessel with an early 1970s to 1984 manufacturing run of about 650 vessels. Many of these boats are still being sailed.

There is an active, California based, Islander 36 Association that offers support and technical assistance, and holds several summer regattas and cruises for this vessel. The Islander 36 Association also has many non-resident members from across the country.
