The Meta 36 is a purpose-built blue-water expedition yacht manufactured by the French shipyard Meta Yachts, a builder renowned for its historical association with legendary sailor Bernard Moitessier and his iconic vessel, Joshua. As the entry-level model in Meta’s production lineup, the 36 is distinguished by its use of the patented Strongall construction method. This technique utilizes pre-stressed, thick-plate aluminum (often 10mm to 12mm for the hull) that eliminates the need for traditional internal stringers and ribs, resulting in a self-supporting shell of exceptional rigidity. Designed by Jean-Claude Michaud, the Meta 36 was conceived as a "zero-compromise" voyager for sailors who prioritize structural integrity and ease of maintenance over the high-gloss finishes of Mediterranean-style production cruisers.
