The Express 37 is a light displacement sloop designed by Carl Schumacher.[1] It was built by Terry Alsberg at the Alsberg Brothers Boatworks in Santa Cruz, California from 1984 to 1988. The Express 37 finished first, second and third in its debut at the 1985 Transpac.[2]

The later Mk II version has a taller rig, an updated keel and rudder and a more cruising oriented interior.[3] The Express 37 one design class association races the original Mk I rig.
