Allied Princess 36 Bowsprit MK-2
Description
The Allied Princess 36 MkII (also called Princess 36 MkII) is the updated version of the classic Allied Princess 36, introduced around 1980. The primary change was the addition of a bowsprit, which extends the foretriangle for larger headsails (e.g., genoas), increasing overall sail area and improving light-air performance and off-wind sailing while maintaining the boat's seaworthy character. Most MkIIs retained the popular ketch rig (some cutters), and total production of both versions combined was about 140 hulls before Allied ceased operations in 1982.
