The Allied Princess 36 is a rugged bluewater cruising ketch designed by Arthur Edmunds and built by Allied Boat Works in the United States during the 1970s. She features a full keel with attached skeg rudder, heavy fiberglass construction, and a ketch rig that makes sail handling manageable for short-handed offshore crews. The Princess 36 was aimed at serious long-distance cruisers and earned a reputation for seaworthiness and durability, with many examples completing circumnavigations. Her conservative design, ample tankage, and traditional layout below decks have kept her popular among the bluewater cruising community decades after production ended.
