EVERY EFFORT is a one-owner vessel built and optioned per company founder Tom Morris's mantra "it's all about sailing!" Sailed by a very experienced yachtsman who optioned her for simplicity, classic elegance and exhilarating performance. With her modern fin keel and carbon fiber spade rudder, "Masquerade" is very competitive on the racecourse yet easily handled by one! Adorned with just enough high gloss varnished teak, she is easy to maintain and still turns heads in every harbor. In boom mainsail furling along with herself tacking jib make the M36 a joy to sail alone or in tight harbors. With all control lines running below decks and directly to the helm, the skipper can easily raise the main, roll out the jib, adjust the vang and backstay and trim both sails right from the helm! Clearly a "home run" design by Sparkman & Stephens, this M36 is a joy in every way.

The M36, designed by Sparkman & Stephens, is a 36' traditional, classic styled boat intended for short or singlehanded sailing. Whether you are going for a day sail or a weekend, this S&S design produced with Morris Yachts quality and the latest in engineering materials will deliver performance sailing that is fun, comfortable, and simple. It is a classically designed yacht of moderate proportions, timeless sheer and long, graceful overhangs. A modest cabin is incorporated into the design which contains a day head, a galley with galley with sink, refrigerator and storage space for provisions. The port and starboard settees are carefully designed for lounging or sleeping. Generous storage can be found in the forepeak. An alternative layout converts the forepeak space into a v berth.
Below deck, EVERY EFFORT is finished in Herreshoff-style with Mahogany trim and white bulkheads. A small galley to starboard offers a stainless-steel sink with fresh water, a 12v refrigerator and lots of dry storage behind sliding doors. To port is an enclosed head with manual Raritan toilet (connected to a gravity holding tank), Corian countertop with fresh water and more storage in two drawers and sliders outboard of stainless bowl. Amid ship are two opposing seatees with seating for 6. A removable tapered pedestal fits into the teak and holy cabin sole socket to mount the high gloss-varnished teak dining table. A second socket is mounted in the teak cockpit sole if the table is desired there. When not in use, the table can be stored in its custom canvas bag and stowed. Two high gloss Mahogany louvered doors close off the space between the main salon and large storage area under the foredeck. This area is great for storing additional sails/gear or could be finished with a v-berth and cushions if one desired to use the boat for cruising.
