Rustler 36

The Rustler 36 is a cruising yacht produced by Rustler Yachts of Falmouth. First produced in the early 1980s by Orion Marine,[1] the yacht is of modern GRP construction, but retains the well ballasted long keel and strong construction of the traditional British sailing yacht.[2] The high standard of construction and traditional highly seaworthy profile differentiate it from cheaper, more lightly built mass production yachts such as the Beneteau range.[3]
