Tashiba 36 is a 35 ′ 11 ″ / 11 m monohull sailboat designed by Robert Perry and built by Ta Shing Yacht Building Ltd. starting in 1986.
Rig and Sails
Auxilary power, accomodations, calculations.
The theoretical maximum speed that a displacement hull can move efficiently through the water is determined by it's waterline length and displacement. It may be unable to reach this speed if the boat is underpowered or heavily loaded, though it may exceed this speed given enough power. Read more.
Classic hull speed formula:
Hull Speed = 1.34 x √LWL
Max Speed/Length ratio = 8.26 ÷ Displacement/Length ratio .311 Hull Speed = Max Speed/Length ratio x √LWL
Sail Area / Displacement Ratio
A measure of the power of the sails relative to the weight of the boat. The higher the number, the higher the performance, but the harder the boat will be to handle. This ratio is a "non-dimensional" value that facilitates comparisons between boats of different types and sizes. Read more.
SA/D = SA ÷ (D ÷ 64) 2/3
- SA : Sail area in square feet, derived by adding the mainsail area to 100% of the foretriangle area (the lateral area above the deck between the mast and the forestay).
- D : Displacement in pounds.
Ballast / Displacement Ratio
A measure of the stability of a boat's hull that suggests how well a monohull will stand up to its sails. The ballast displacement ratio indicates how much of the weight of a boat is placed for maximum stability against capsizing and is an indicator of stiffness and resistance to capsize.
Ballast / Displacement * 100
Displacement / Length Ratio
A measure of the weight of the boat relative to it's length at the waterline. The higher a boat’s D/L ratio, the more easily it will carry a load and the more comfortable its motion will be. The lower a boat's ratio is, the less power it takes to drive the boat to its nominal hull speed or beyond. Read more.
D/L = (D ÷ 2240) ÷ (0.01 x LWL)³
- D: Displacement of the boat in pounds.
- LWL: Waterline length in feet
Comfort Ratio
This ratio assess how quickly and abruptly a boat’s hull reacts to waves in a significant seaway, these being the elements of a boat’s motion most likely to cause seasickness. Read more.
Comfort ratio = D ÷ (.65 x (.7 LWL + .3 LOA) x Beam 1.33 )
- D: Displacement of the boat in pounds
- LOA: Length overall in feet
- Beam: Width of boat at the widest point in feet
Capsize Screening Formula
This formula attempts to indicate whether a given boat might be too wide and light to readily right itself after being overturned in extreme conditions. Read more.
CSV = Beam ÷ ³√(D / 64)
From BlueWaterBoats.org :
Introduced in 1986, the Tashiba 36 along with its smaller sibling the Tashiba 31 are the last of the full keel double-enders by designer Bob Perry ; he considers them his best. The boat shares many of the innovations Perry made with his Baba 40 design and evolves them further to produce a boat with traits all sailors love. They are fast, close-winded, stiff, and well balanced.
The boats were built by Ta Shing, the best of the Taiwanese boatbuilders and recognized as one of the best quality yards worldwide. Some have described the interior of the boat as a piece of fine furniture.
The Tashiba 36 heritage is intertwined with the Baba line of boats. It’s said the name “Tashiba” is probably a play of words, bringing together the name “Ta Shing” with “Baba”. These boats were the brainchild of developer Bob Berg who brought together Perry and discovered the boatyard that was to become the best in Taiwan. The three boat line-up of the Baba 30 , 35 , and 40 became a hit.
The last of these boats, the Baba 40, eventually got renamed to the Tashiba 40 when Ta Shing took over the marketing and decided to forge ahead with their own line of yachts. Two smaller boats were required to fill out the new Tashiba line.
Having designed the entire Baba line of boats, Perry was the natural choice for the two new boats that became the Tashiba 36 and the Tashiba 31 . They were designed together in California with Ta Shing’s Taiwanese representative working closely with Perry.
The Baba/Tashiba 40 having been derived off the lines of the legendary Valiant 40 performance cruiser showed such a marked improvement from Perry’s earlier full keel designs he decided to evolve the design further. Perry writes, “The turn to the bilges got even more firm for increased stability. The bows were finer”. The resulting design produced a boat that sailed incredibly well; fast and close winded enough to challenge many fin keel designs.
Construction
The boat’s hull is of hand-laminated fiberglass. The outer layers employ water and hence osmosis resisting vinylester resin. The interior of the boat is optionally lined with polyurethane insulation. Ballast is a single iron casting encapsulated in fiberglass.
The deck is in GRP and cored with end-grain balsa. In areas where through-deck fittings are bolted, marine-plywood is used as coring and stainless steel backing plates are used.
The boat was offered in a pilothouse version as well and the standard rear cockpit model. Rear cockpit models have a large stateroom forward and a quarterberth aft whereas the pilothouse has two large staterooms, one forward and the other amidship. The pilothouse has an inside steering station as well as the pedestal steering from the cockpit. Both versions feature a pressurized hot water system with a shower in the head area.
Buyers Notes
As with many of the Baba/Panda/Tashiba boats built by Ta Shing, the Tashiba 36 has black iron fuel tanks which have proven susceptible to corrosion, these tanks have been replaced in many boat but it’s worth checking out. Prices for the Tashiba 36 has remained quite high and generally not many come up on the used market. As of 2010, the asking price is in the range of: $130k-$160k USD

Review of Tashiba 36
Basic specs..
The hull is made of fibreglass. Generally, a hull made of fibreglass requires only a minimum of maintenance during the sailing season.
The boat is equipped with 378.0 liter fresh water capacity.
The Tashiba 36 is equipped with a long keel. A full keel provide a better directional stability than a similar boat with a fin keel; on the other hand, better directional stability means also that the boat is more difficult to handle in a harbour with less space.
The boat can enter most marinas as the draft is just about 1.68 - 1.78 meter (5.51 - 5.81 ft) dependent on the load. See immersion rate below.
Tashiba 36 may be equipped with an inboard Yanmar 4JHE diesel engine at 44 hp (32 kW). Calculated max speed is about 6.0 knots
The fuel tank has a capacity of 284.0 liters (75 US gallons, 62 imperial gallons).
Sailing characteristics
This section covers widely used rules of thumb to describe the sailing characteristics. Please note that even though the calculations are correct, the interpretation of the results might not be valid for extreme boats.
What is Capsize Screening Formula (CSF)?
The capsize screening value for Tashiba 36 is 1.72, indicating that this boat could - if evaluated by this formula alone - be accepted to participate in ocean races.
What is Theoretical Maximum Hull Speed?
The theoretical maximal speed of a displacement boat of this length is 7.4 knots. The term "Theoretical Maximum Hull Speed" is widely used even though a boat can sail faster. The term shall be interpreted as above the theoretical speed a great additional power is necessary for a small gain in speed.
The immersion rate is defined as the weight required to sink the boat a certain level. The immersion rate for Tashiba 36 is about 222 kg/cm, alternatively 1245 lbs/inch. Meaning: if you load 222 kg cargo on the boat then it will sink 1 cm. Alternatively, if you load 1245 lbs cargo on the boat it will sink 1 inch.

- Very capable and roomy cruising vessel. Kea has done her share of cruising in southern waters but more recently here in the Chesapeake Bay. Another great Bob Perry design. Lovely lines with her canoe stern, she has a timeless quality that will never get old. Her interior is warm and inviting with beautiful teak cabinetry and bulkheads throughout. Bronze opening ports and Butterfly hatch above add great light and natural ventilation but her reverse cycle AC/HT extends your cruising in the heat of the summer or late into winter. Her two private staterooms allow comfort and privacy for the family or two couples.
- More information will be added to the listing but in the meantime enjoy the photos and please let me know if you have any questions.
Accommodations
The Toshiba has a very warm and inviting interior. As you enter the vessel from the cockpit you are greeted by all the lovely teak bulkheads and cabinetry. Her cabin sides are white and with the bonze opening ports and the butterfly hatches there is an abundance of light. Her sole is beautiful teak and holly.
- Starting aft and working our way forward, to the port of the companionway is the Sea galley. A custom feature on this 36 is her wrap around galley similar to the ones they did in the 40 footer. To starboard is the first private stateroom with double berth, hanging locker and cabinets.
- Moving forward into the salon you will find an aft facing navigation station with electric panel, instruments, VHF radio and chart desk to starboard. Forward is an L-shaped dinette with fixed table. Outboard are lockers and bronze opening ports and above is one of the butterfly hatches. To port is a settee also with lockers outboard and several opening bronze ports.
- As we move forward there are lockers on the port side and opposite to starboard is her head with a stone vanity and separate shower stall. Access to the head is from the passageway or from the forward cabin. The second stateroom has a double berth in the forepeak, shelving outboard, hanging locker to port, drawers under the berth, opening ports and a second butterfly hatch.
- Being a canoe stern vessel, her cockpit also wraps around like her stern. Nice combings and a high bridge deck make for a dry vessel. She has a Pushpit stern rail that offers additional seating. Her decks are wide for comfort moving about forward.
Custom wrap around galley with abundant counter space as well as plenty of storage space in cabinets and drawers.
