Design

The Banner 37 is a recreational keelboat, built predominantly of fibreglass, with wood trim. It has a masthead sloop rig, a raked stem and a fixed fin keel. It displaces 13,500 lb (6,123 kg) and carries 5,500 lb (2,495 kg) of ballast.[1][2]

The boat has a draft of 5.82 ft (1.77 m) with the standard keel.[1][2]

The boat is fitted with a Swedish Volvo MD17D diesel engine for docking and manoeuvring. The fuel tank holds 30 U.S. gallons (110 L; 25 imp gal) and the fresh water tank has a capacity of 50 U.S. gallons (190 L; 42 imp gal).[1][2]

The design has a hull speed of 7.18 kn (13.30 km/h).[2]
