Titan 36 ~ Highly competitive racing yacht with a lifting keel.

The Foundation 36 was designed by Bakewell-White in 1995 to create a new fleet for the inaugural World Match Racing Championships held in Perth. The original fleet is now used for the Monsoon cup in Malaysia, while the fleet in Perth has developed into a club racing fleet of some 40 boats.

The Titan 36 integrates the highly successful hull from the Foundation 36, with a re-designed deck that provides a spacious interior with accommodation.

The Titan’s were built to a very high standard by local boat builder Peter Milner. The yachts were solidly constructed to withstand the rigors of off-shore racing. Electric Tram is constructed from cold moulded Western Red Cedar and West System Epoxy. Western Red Cedar is a light dimensionally stable timber, with a very high strength-to-weight ratio. It doesn’t absorb water readily and is highly resistant to rot. This form of strip plank construction is very light and contributes significantly to the stiffness and strength of the hull, and that translates into better performance on the water!

The Titan 36 performs extremely well in a broad range of conditions and has proven to be a very competitive and successful racing yacht.

‘Electric Tram’ was commissioned with a secret weapon, a factory fitted lifting hydraulic keel with a torpedo bulb. The keel is lifted with a hydraulic ram and can be securely locked off at 1.75m, 2.18m or 2.66m. With the keel all the way down at 2.66m, the performance to windward is outstanding. With the keel all the way up at 1.75m, drag is greatly reduced and shallower anchorages become accessible.

Electric Tram has proven to be a very competitive racing yacht and recent results tell the story.

The interior has a simple and clean layout. There are four full sized adult berths. The galley features a two burner metho stove and a sink. There are two eskies that sit firmly in dedicated mounts beside the companionway steps. And with an enclosed head, Electric Tram features just enough creature comforts to spend weekends away or cruise the coast.

Propulsion is provided by a reliable 28hp Volvo Penta with a shaft drive and two blade folding prop. She has also been fitted with high quality PSS drip-less shaft seal.

Electric tram comes complete with a comprehensive suite of high quality racing sails and an additional dacron cruising mainsail. She has been very well maintained and regularly upgraded by her current owner. The mast and standing rigging were both replaced in 2011. The winches have been upgraded to Andersen self-tailing 40ST and 46ST (Over $5k spent). The engine has been professionally maintained and the antifoul was just done in March this year. She was recently surveyed on the 6/5/2022.

Electric Tram is the ideal yacht for a sailor looking for a competitive racing yacht that is capable of winning some silverware, and for a sailor that is also looking for the additional flexibility of being able to spend weekends away or cruise the coast occasionally.

At only $49k, Electric Tram represents exceptional value for money. She is currently located at Port Geographe Marina and the Pen is available, should the new owner wish to take over the lease and keep her there.
