Allied Princess 36 Ketch
Description
The Allied Princess 36 is a classic American-built fiberglass cruising sailboat designed by naval architect Arthur H. Edmunds and produced by the Allied Boat Company in Catskill, New York, from 1972 to around 1982. Approximately 140 hulls were built, making it Allied's most successful model. It's renowned among cruisers for its rugged, overbuilt construction—thick hand-laid fiberglass hull, encapsulated lead ballast, and balsa-cored deck—prioritizing seaworthiness and simplicity over racing performance or flashy interiors. The vessel was available as either a cutter or ketch configuration, with a bowsprit added around 1980 for the MkII version to improve sail options and performance.
