About the GULFSTREAM 36 (S&S)
Available as a sloop or yawl.
The Gulfstream 36 is a classic Sparkman & Stephens design built by Robert Derecktor (USA) with production years listed as 1953. As a rare example of this specific build configuration, it represents a unique entry in the S&S lineage with a build count of ?.
- Best for:
- This vessel suits traditionalists and collectors seeking a classic full-keel sloop with a high comfort ratio of 34.38, ideal for relaxed coastal cruising rather than high-performance racing.
- Bluewater capability:
- With a displacement of 14000.0 lb, a low capsize ratio of 1.66, and a full/long keel, the boat exhibits strong inherent stability and seaworthiness for offshore passages.
- Comparables:
- Comparable to other 1950s Sparkman & Stephens full-keel designs like the Columbia 36 or early Cal 36, these boats share similar displacement-heavy hull forms and traditional rigging.
