The Sun Shine 36 is a French sailboat that was designed by Tony Castro as an International Offshore Rule One Ton class racer and first built in 1982.[1][2][3][4]

The Sunshine 36 is the production version of an original prototype one ton racer and shares a hull design with the Regatta 39 and the Sun Shine 38, which has a longer transom.[1][2][5][6][7][8]

Production

The design was built by Jeanneau in France, starting in 1982, but it is now out of production.[1][2][9][10]

Design

The Sun Shine 36 is a racing

centerboard.[1][2]

The keel equipped version displaces 11,872 lb (5,385 kg) and carries 4,850 lb (2,200 kg) of ballast, while the centerboard equipped version displaces 12,544 lb (5,690 kg).[1][2]

The keel-equipped version of the boat has a draft of 6.30 ft (1.92 m), while the centerboard-equipped version has a draft of 6.80 ft (2.07 m) with the centerboard extended and 4.10 ft (1.25 m) with it retracted, allowing operation in shallow water.[1][2]

The boat is fitted with a Japanese Yanmar diesel engine for docking and maneuvering. The fuel tank holds 22 U.S. gallons (83 L; 18 imp gal) and the fresh water tank has a capacity of 53 U.S. gallons (200 L; 44 imp gal).[1][2]

The design has sleeping accommodation for eight people, with a double

ice box and a double sink. A navigation station is opposite the galley, on the starboard side. The head is located just aft of the bow cabin on the port side.[1][2]

For sailing downwind the design may be equipped with a symmetrical spinnaker.[1][2]

The design has a hull speed of 7.42 kn (13.74 km/h).[2]

Operational history

The boat was at one time supported by an active class club that organized racing events, the One Ton class, and more recently by the Jeanneau Owners Network.[11][12][13][14]
