Kingfisher 36
Designed by Sam Devlin
A 36 ft 6 in displacement power cruiser by Sam Devlin that extends the range and capability of his Kingfisher 32, intended for stitch and glue construction. It matches the size of Inside Passage salmon trollers but with less draft and more beam. A second stateroom and head are entered from aft of the pilothouse. Beam is 12 ft 4 in, draft 42 in, with a 110 to 300 hp inboard diesel.
It is available as study plans and as a custom build from the Devlin shop, so construction drawings must be arranged with the designer. An experienced builder is assumed. As a rule of thumb, expect 6,000 to 9,000 hours. The medians below come from builders who logged this boat here.
What building a Kingfisher 36 actually takes
Medians from the build logs kept on this site, not the designer’s estimate. Nobody has logged this boat here yet, so they are empty until the first builder does.
Those medians firm up as more people log this boat.
