{"id":652,"count":0,"description":"The Gozzard 36, a Ted Gozzard design, is repeatedly presented in the listings as a blue\u2011water\u2013oriented cruising yacht built to traditional standards. Multiple descriptions emphasize a conservative hull form\u2014variously described as full\u2011keel or long\u2011keel with a protected or skeg\u2011hung rudder\u2014and older examples are also reported with a modified fin\u2011keel in some listings, reflecting variation between individual boats and builds. These configurations, together with a heavy\u2011displacement hull in the advertised boats, are credited with a comfortable motion at sea and steady tracking in a range of conditions.\r\n\r\nExterior features that appear consistently include classic lines with a clipper bow, bowsprit, reverse transom and extensive teak trim. Construction is described as hand\u2011laid fiberglass with a balsa cored topside and a balsa\u2011cored deck with plywood reinforcement in high\u2011stress areas. Deck appliances and safety fittings noted in the listings include a single wheel in an aft cockpit, teak cabin\u2011top handrails, bow and stern rails with double lifelines, a dodger and bimini, and a fold\u2011over transom for easier stern access.\r\n\r\nRigging details in the listings identify the boats as cutter\u2011rigged or masthead cutter\u2011sloop configurations with a deck\u2011stepped aluminum mast, stainless standing rigging, two sets of spreaders and a single backstay. Roller furling systems for the jib and staysail are mentioned, and several boats are described as being set up for easy short\u2011handed handling with conservative sail plans and well\u2011protected cockpits.\r\n\r\nThe interior is repeatedly described as flexible and well thought\u2011out for long\u2011term cruising. Listings highlight a \u201ctransformer\u201d layout with sliding bulkheads and settees that convert into berths, a forward double berth, a convertible saloon that forms a centerline berth, and a useful aft single\/sea berth. Joinery is shown as traditional varnished teak or mahogany with cane\u2011ventilated locker doors, abundant storage, and multiple opening ports and hatches for ventilation. Galley and systems descriptions include an L\u2011shaped galley to port with a double stainless sink, three\u2011burner propane stove with oven and a top\u2011loading refrigerator\/freezer, and an enclosed head with shower.\r\n\r\nMechanical and systems notes across the listings indicate inboard propulsion with recent drivetrain work on some examples, and electrical arrangements sized to support extended periods off the grid. Overall the documentation portrays the Gozzard 36 as a traditionally styled, robustly built cruiser whose specific underbody and equipment details can vary between individual boats.","link":"https:\/\/www.yachtsite.com\/brand\/gozzard\/","name":"Gozzard","slug":"gozzard","taxonomy":"brand","parent":0,"meta":[],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.yachtsite.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/brand\/652","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.yachtsite.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/brand"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.yachtsite.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/taxonomies\/brand"}],"wp:post_type":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.yachtsite.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/reference?brand=652"},{"href":"https:\/\/www.yachtsite.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/yachts-for-sale?brand=652"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
