The Hunter 36 Legend is a recreational keelboat, built predominantly of fiberglass.[1][3]

The design has a fractional sloop B&R rig, a nearly-plumb stem, a walk-through reverse transom, an internally-mounted spade-type rudder controlled by a wheel and a fixed fin keel or wing keel. It displaces 14,330 lb (6,500 kg) and carries 5,132 lb (2,328 kg) of ballast.[1][3]

The boat has a draft of 6.82 ft (2.08 m) with the standard keel and 5.00 ft (1.52 m) with the optional shoal draft winged keel.[1][3]

The boat is fitted with an inboard engine. The fuel tank holds 37 U.S. gallons (140 L; 31 imp gal) and the fresh water tank has a capacity of 75 U.S. gallons (280 L; 62 imp gal).[1][3]

The design has a hull speed of 7.52 kn (13.93 km/h).[3]
