The CS 36 Traditional
The CS36T is widely regarded as one of Raymond Wall's finest hull designs, offering a perfect balance between responsive racing performance and comfortable long-distance cruising. Her moderate draft, balanced helm, and powerful rig allow her to track beautifully in heavy seas while remaining light and nimble in mild breeze. Whether navigating the open waters of Lake Ontario or exploring secluded coves, the CS 36 delivers a smooth, confidence-inspiring ride.
On deck, the cockpit layout is optimized for short-handed sailing, featuring all lines led aft to coachtop winches and an ergonomic helm position. The spacious decks allow for safe movement forward, complemented by canvas protection including a dodger, bimini, and partial bug enclosure. Her generous beam is carried well aft, creating a secure, comfortable cockpit area ideal for entertaining or managing long offshore watches.
Belowdecks, the interior showcases classic craftsmanship paired with modern living enhancements. The warm, refinished woodwork and gleaming sole create an inviting atmosphere, elevated by updated UltraLeather upholstery. The open-concept salon features port and starboard settees, with the starboard settee converting into a double berth to easily accommodate extra guests or crew during extended passages.
Designed for true living aboard, the layout includes a private forward vee berth, a dedicated aft quarterberth, and a fully equipped navigation station. The functional galley features efficient refrigeration and propane cooking, ensuring comfort on anchor. With substantial tankage and solar power capabilities, the CS 36 Traditional stands out as an exceptional cruiser ready for new adventures.
