Seller's Description
Seller wants sold! Bring all offers!
This 1977 Islander located in Pensacola, Florida has been owned by the current seller for five years. It was a liveaboard when wet slipped but is now on the hard. The seller learned how to sail on this boat and states it’s a “fast and easy to sail boat”.
Five years ago the bottom was sanded down to fiberglass, sandblasted, any voids were filled with high-density fiberglass, then sealed, 2 coats of Seahawk barrier coat added, primed, and then Ablative bottom paint added.
Engine power: Kubota Fusion 28 HP diesel engine with low hours, single-lever throttle, forward and reverse with a 32-gallon fuel tank. It has a full instrument panel in the cockpit.
Battery power: Five Optima 12V batteries and 2000 watt inverter; (4) 100w hard solar panels; (1)130w flexible panel.
Tank capacities: Two 30-gallon fresh water plastic tanks; One 20-gallon grey water plastic tank.
Electronics: Recently installed depth sounder, SIMMS autopilot HD and VHF radio.
The seller has replaced all port lights and they all now have rain visors.
Recent Lafranz Windlass - Has all the switches but needs to be hooked up.
Two sets of sails - (2) jibs and (2) mains with a spinnaker. Age of sails is unkown. They were sent to a sail loft to be checked and reinforced in 2017. 12’ Whisker pole.
Lights all work on deck: Mast light, tri-lights and navigation lights.
New depth sounder onboard.
New prop - Bruton 16” 2-blade folding.
Interior: Galley has a 2-burner stove with oven. Single sink, 3cf refrigerator with an ice plate (counter top door over freezer). No hot water heater.
The main saloon itself is quite comfortable. The settees on either side are long enough to be comfortable berths. The starboard settee folds out into a double berth. The V-Berth sleeps two and has sail lockers.
Aft of the nav station on the port side, there is a quarterberth tucked completely beneath the cockpit. There is a wet head with sink, shower and toilet.

Calculations

7.7 kn
Classic: 7.12 kn
Hull Speed
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.
Formula
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
- Sail Area/Displacement
-
16.3
Sail Area / Displacement Ratio
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.
Formula
SA/D = SA ÷ (D ÷ 64)2/3
- SA: Sail area in square feet, derived by adding the mainsail area to 100% of the foretriangle area (the lateral area above the deck between the mast and the forestay).
- D: Displacement in pounds.
- Ballast/Displacement
-
43.3
>40: stiffer, more powerful
Ballast / Displacement Ratio
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.
Formula
Ballast / Displacement * 100
- Displacement/Length
-
266.4
200-300: moderate
Displacement / Length Ratio
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.
Formula
D/L = (D ÷ 2240) ÷ (0.01 x LWL)³
- D: Displacement of the boat in pounds.
- LWL: Waterline length in feet
- Comfort Ratio
-
27.2
20-30: coastal cruiser
Comfort Ratio
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.
Formula
Comfort ratio = D ÷ (.65 x (.7 LWL + .3 LOA) x Beam1.33)
- D: Displacement of the boat in pounds
- LWL: Waterline length in feet
- LOA: Length overall in feet
- Beam: Width of boat at the widest point in feet
- Capsize Screening
-
1.9
<2.0: better suited for ocean passages
Capsize Screening Formula
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.
Formula
CSV = Beam ÷ ³√(D / 64)
- Beam: Width of boat at the widest point in feet
- D: Displacement of the boat in pounds
Notes
With nearly 800 boats built this was one of the most successful models from Islander Yachts.
During it’’s production history the ISLANDER 36 was delivered with the following engines (in a an approximate cronological order):
Universal Atomic 4 -Gas
Palmer P-60 - Gas
Perkins 4-108 - Diesel
Westerbeke L-25 - Diesel
Pathfinder - Diesel
Yanmar - Diesel
It is said that the molds for the ISLANDER 36 were purchased by Newport Offshore Yachts of CA, USA in 1986. But it is not known if any other boats were built after this date.
