Gaia Class Hull #33 - SarniaThe Swan 36 is very well known in sailing circles and bears the same design number as this class of boats. This Gaia Class was built by the famous Italian builder Benello. 19 boats were built to this design by Benello. Their production run began 2 years prior to the Swan 36 run that started in 1965.
Additional boats were also built to this design with slight variations, such as the Sigma 36 Class (built by Cheoy Lee), the one-off Cybele, Rumbuster and many more in both wood and fiberglass. In all I believe 60 boats were built to this design with slight variations, without counting the Swan 36s. All were based on a previous design Hestia, design #1478, a very successful RORC-rule racing yacht.
The Benello boats had a distinctive raised portion of the deckhouse aft, which is absent in the Swan model. Here are the plans.
