San Juan 36
Description
"San Juan 36" commonly refers to the Sharpie 36 San Juan Islands, a custom sharpie design by Pete Leinweber (built by Parker Marine Enterprises or individuals since the 1990s). This gaff-rigged or schooner-rigged sharpie is tailored for shallow-draft cruising in the Pacific Northwest's San Juan Islands, emphasizing simplicity, stability, and gunkholing over speed. Around 10–20 have been built or kits completed, making it rare and semi-custom.
