Bayfield 36 – A Cheap Bluewater Sailboat

The Bayfield 36 is one of the most distinctive Bayfield sailboats ever built. Designed and constructed in Canada, the Bayfield 36 combines traditional styling, a clipper bow, cutter rig, long keel, protected rudder and a surprisingly spacious cruising interior.

In this complete Bayfield 36 sailboat review, we examine the boat’s history, construction, sailing performance, deck layout, interior accommodations, engine, rig and important inspection points for anyone considering buying a used Bayfield. We also look at how the Bayfield 36 compares with the smaller Bayfield 32 and why this heavy-displacement Canadian cruising sailboat still attracts sailors decades after production ended.

Is the Bayfield 36 a capable bluewater cruising boat, a comfortable liveaboard or simply a beautiful classic with a great deal of teak to maintain? Watch as we explore everything you need to know about the
Bayfield 36, including its strengths, weaknesses and the ownership costs buyers should consider before purchasing one.
