The Mao Ta 36 had its roots in the Robert Perry designed Hans Christian 34, which was modified to become the Hans Christian 36 and the Union 36.

Willie Ma was working at Union Shipyards when he contacted Robert Perry to make a modification to the Union 36. Willie took the designs and started his own shipyard at Kaohsiung, Taiwan called Mao Ta Lumber and Yacht.

The design change was a keel modification sometimes referred to as the "Brewer Bite".

The construction of the hull is one-piece solid Fiberglass laminated that was hand laid. The chain plates and keel were re-enforced. The cast-iron ballast is securely molded into the keel.

Heading down the companionway you will notice the beautiful cherry trimmed interior. The bright airy atmosphere is complimented  by the butterfly hatches located mid salon. “Alborada” does not have a built-in air conditioner, but the owner has a portable unit, with the baffles and cover, that fits securely into one wing of the butterfly hatch.

The “U” shape galley, located to the port side has a double deep stainless steel sink unit, a three-burner propane stove/oven and an Adler-Barbour 12V fridge/freezer - easily powered by the solar/wind generator units.

 There are three protected sea berths for passage-making. There is space for seven people to sleep (assuming they brought nothing more than a toothbrush).

  The starboard side has the chart table with a quarter berth located behind it.

Moving forward there is a lounge bench with a pilot berth located above it. The port side has a full settee, the owner is a blue water, long distance sailor and have made modification, that when needed, will create a secure sea berth, for a peaceful rest on a long voyage.

  Heading forward towards the V berth you will pass the marine head. It has a 50-gallon holding tank.
