1972–1984
The Uniflite 36 Double Cabin is a U.S.-built aft-cabin motor yacht with a solid-fiberglass hull, full-width aft master stateroom and dual helm stations. It is a conventional planing powerboat rather than a trawler, and most examples were delivered with twin gasoline inboards.

Best for
- Great Lakes and coastal buyers wanting an older aft-cabin motor yacht
- Families prioritizing two private sleeping areas
- Owners comfortable with twin gasoline machinery or documented repowers
Trade-offs
- Twin gasoline power increases fuel consumption relative to diesel trawlers
- Older examples require careful blister and laminate inspection
- Aft-cabin windage and systems age increase docking and ownership demands
Known concerns
- No model-specific concern has been promoted to B-Atlas’s evidence threshold. This does not mean the model has no age-, condition- or hull-specific risks.
Inspection focus
- Inspect hull and topsides carefully for blistering and laminate repairs
- Confirm 1984 36 II versus earlier solid-hull configuration
- Inspect fuel system, gasoline ventilation, exhaust and ignition-protection equipment
- Inspect decks, windows and flybridge penetrations
- Inspect shafts, rudders and steering
