This is one of those boats which everyone should get the opportunity to experience in their lives!
From the original brochure - which is currently onboard and can be viewed: “A Perfect Balance of Beauty and Function – Gracefully Formed and Well Proportioned – Properly Installed and Tastefully Done … A unique blend of Asian craftsmanship and new world technology to produce the finest cruising yacht you can acquire.”
As is evident from the photos and videos, his showpiece of a vessel has been well-loved, well maintained and is in exceptional condition for her age and usage.
This 1979 Union 36’ Cutter is a TRUE BEAUTY! She is a blue water cruiser with lots of character which will also make a wonderful liveaboard!
Based on a Hans Christian design by Robert H. Perry, this vessel was built in Taiwan with custom master craftsman throughout.
The most recent haul-out and professional inspection was in 2017. At this time, a complete bottom job was carried out and new cutlass bearings installed. Since then the bottom has been professionally cleaned and checked every two months. Ongoing preventative maintenance (oil change, new belt, etc.) was recently completed.
In 2012, a new Yanmar 50HP diesel was installed which still has very low hours. There is no documentation on the engine replacement. Please see the video of the engine starting and running. It’s shiny and purrs! There is no hour meter hooked up to the newer engine but the hours are estimated to be between 150-200.
She can comfortably sleep seven people in a private v-berth cabin, jumbo double quarter berth, dinette conversion and single salon bunk.
The unique enclosed head room has a new Jabsco marine toilet, 11-gallon hot water heater for the shower, sink and mirror. The door configuration allows for the shower room to be separated from the salon and cabin, extending into the gangway and doubling in size.
Recent Upgrades Include:
-Fuel & tank cleaned/polished in 2019 -Brand new head installed with new hoses -New batteries and ProMariner battery tender/charger
All teak above and below deck is in beautiful condition and has been very well cared for.
Both teak and fiberglass parts of the deck appear to be solid with no soft spots.
She is sailed regularly around the windward side of Oahu. Sails are reported to be in average condition. Sail covers appear to be in good to above average condition.
This is a USCG registered vessel.
There is no transferable slip with this boat. It is currently on the Marine Corp Base in Kaneohe.
The theoretical maximum speed that a displacement hull can move efficiently through the water is determined by it's waterline length and displacement. It may be unable to reach this speed if the boat is underpowered or heavily loaded, though it may exceed this speed given enough power. Read more.
Classic hull speed formula:
Hull Speed = 1.34 x √LWL
A more accurate formula devised by Dave Gerr in The Propeller Handbook replaces the Speed/Length ratio constant of 1.34 with a calculation based on the Displacement/Length ratio.
Max Speed/Length ratio = 8.26 ÷ Displacement/Length ratio.311
Hull Speed = Max Speed/Length ratio x √LWL
A measure of the power of the sails relative to the weight of the boat. The higher the number, the higher the performance, but the harder the boat will be to handle. This ratio is a "non-dimensional" value that facilitates comparisons between boats of different types and sizes. Read more.
SA/D = SA ÷ (D ÷ 64)2/3
A measure of the stability of a boat's hull that suggests how well a monohull will stand up to its sails. The ballast displacement ratio indicates how much of the weight of a boat is placed for maximum stability against capsizing and is an indicator of stiffness and resistance to capsize.
Ballast / Displacement * 100
A measure of the weight of the boat relative to it's length at the waterline. The higher a boat’s D/L ratio, the more easily it will carry a load and the more comfortable its motion will be. The lower a boat's ratio is, the less power it takes to drive the boat to its nominal hull speed or beyond. Read more.
D/L = (D ÷ 2240) ÷ (0.01 x LWL)³
This ratio assess how quickly and abruptly a boat’s hull reacts to waves in a significant seaway, these being the elements of a boat’s motion most likely to cause seasickness. Read more.
Comfort ratio = D ÷ (.65 x (.7 LWL + .3 LOA) x Beam1.33)
This formula attempts to indicate whether a given boat might be too wide and light to readily right itself after being overturned in extreme conditions. Read more.
CSV = Beam ÷ ³√(D / 64)
According to designer, Robert Perry, the HANS CHRISTIAN 36, MARINER POLARIS, UNION POLARIS 36, and EO 36 are all nearly the same, which, in turn, are lengthened versions of the HANS CHRISTIAN 34, the boat he was originally commissioned to design but, of which, few were built.
(previously listed here as UNION POLARIS 36).
