Rival 36

First launched in 1980 the Rival 36 was the last of the Rival designs to be drawn by Peter Brett, the man responsible for creating the Rival brand and its iconic reputation as a robust reliable cruiser. Originally built by Southern Boatbuilding Company before the merging of the Rival and Bowman brands, there was reportedly a total of 78 hulls produced in the class before production ceased in the mid 1990’s.

In the ownership of a retired ships captain for the last 20 years the Rival 36 RAGNA has been based in Stromness from where her owner has enjoyed crusing her short handed. RAGNA is now reluctantly offered as her owner swallows the anchor.

Her inventory highlights include: Original gelcoat finish to hull and decks Bukh DV24 marine diesel engine (2000) Adverc smart alternator controller Rutland wind generator Lewmar tunnel-mounted Gen 2, 4kw bow thruster (2019) Raymarine EVO autopilot system with additional remote control (2018) Raymarine Axiom chart plotter (2022) Raymarine AIS (2022) Stainless steel custom-made water tank fitted 2017 Origio 2 burner spirit stove, gimbal-mounted Eberspacher diesel-fired blown air heating system Masthead cutter rig with roller reefing systems on forestay and inner forestay Lewmar electric windlass Lying in Stromness Marina, Orkney the Rival 36 RAGNA is available to view by appointment.
