About the Invader 36 Cc

With limited documentation available, the Invader 36 Cc represents one of the more elusive designs in the 36-foot sailboat category. This center cockpit configuration suggests a boat oriented toward comfortable cruising rather than racing performance, as the CC layout typically prioritizes interior volume and protected helm positioning over pure sailing dynamics. Center cockpit designs like the Invader 36 Cc generally excel at providing superior accommodations for extended cruising, often featuring a spacious aft cabin that appeals to couples seeking privacy and comfort aboard. The protected cockpit position offers better visibility and weather protection compared to traditional aft cockpit arrangements, making it particularly suitable for coastal and offshore passage making. Given the scarcity of detailed specifications and production information, potential buyers should approach this model with careful inspection and thorough surveys. The limited available data makes it challenging to assess build quality, construction methods, or long-term reliability patterns. Prospective owners would benefit from connecting with existing Invader 36 Cc owners or marine professionals familiar with the builder to gain insights into the boat's sailing characteristics, maintenance requirements, and overall suitability for their intended cruising goals.

Performance Ratios
SA/Displacement Sail Area to Displacement ratio measures how much sail power a boat has relative to its weight. Higher values mean more performance and speed.
Under 14 — Heavy cruiser, slow14–18 — Cruising sailboat18–22 — Cruiser/racerOver 22 — Performance racer

Comfort Ratio Ted Brewer's Comfort Ratio predicts how comfortable a boat will feel in offshore conditions. Higher values mean a steadier, more comfortable motion in a seaway.
Under 20 — Uncomfortably rough20–30 — Acceptable coastal30–40 — Good offshore comfortOver 40 — Very comfortable offshore
30.8
Capsize Screening Formula The USHS Capsize Screening Formula estimates offshore capsize risk. Lower is safer — values under 2.0 are considered acceptable for offshore sailing.
Under 2.0 — Safe for offshore2.0–2.2 — Borderline offshoreOver 2.2 — Coastal use recommended
1.67
Hull Speed Hull Speed is the theoretical maximum speed of a displacement hull, calculated from waterline length. Most cruising sailboats reach this speed in moderate conditions. 6.6
S# (Speed Number) The Speed Number (S#) is a quick performance index. Higher values indicate a faster, more powerful design relative to its size.
Under 3.0 — Slow cruiser3.0–5.0 — Average cruiser5.0–7.0 — Performance cruiserOver 7.0 — Racer
