Description
In the review of the Beneteau First 36.7, Practical Sailor wrote:
This dual-purpose boat (Cruising & Racing), designed by Bruce Farr, is more user-friendly than its high-performance progenitors, but will still sail fast as a one-design or in handicap fleets.
Designed by Farr Yacht Design, the Beneteau First 36.7 is one of the most successful cruiser-racers of all time, with several hundred built and many active one-design fleets around the country. The First 36.7 offers sparkling performance, plus easy live-aboard comfort. The well thought our deck plan, large ergonomic cockpit, and spacious 3-cabin layout, create the perfect cruiser-racer. New North Mainsail 2024
Pressure Drop is well maintained, continuously upgraded, has a successful race record and has been enjoyed by the owner and his wife for extensive cruising to the many anchorages, marinas and yacht clubs throughout San Francisco Bay and the Delta. The interior comfort features, Beneteau's are known for, are ever present in this boat. Accommodations include forward v-berth, two aft cabins, forward head, galley and settees. Long fin keel for added stability gives this boat an edge on the race course while at the same time increasing ease of single-handed sailing and comfortable cruising stability.
Pressure Drop is for sail now because the owner is purchasing a larger sailboat for extended long term cruising.

-Access ports are available to service critical deck hardware
HULL
-The hull is Solid Fiberglass
-FRPA structural inner molding with unidirectional fabric is bonded and laminated to the hull. Its structural role is important as it takes and absorbs the stresses at pressure points (chain plate tie rods, keel, rudder etc.) spreading these and thereby guaranteeing reduced strain on the hull. The surface to the inner hull makes cleaning easier and provides a better finish.
