36 foot, 2004 Beneteau 361 auxiliary sloop with Westerbeke diesel power for sale in Stamford CT now!
The Beneteau 361 is a leading example of what a 36 footer can deliver under way or at anchor. The boat has a big interior that will suit a sailing family (a double berth forward for the kids and an adult master cabin with ensuite head/shower aft) and a moderate size sail plan that won't add to stress levels on the weekend.
Under sail the feel coming through the 42 inch wheel is that of a balanced and responsive boat: visibility from the helm station is above average, and the console mounted throttle controls and bracing points for the feet are located in the right spots. The Beneteau 361 is a performance cruiser in which a touch more emphasis has been placed on cruiser.
The Lewmar 44 self tailing genoa winches are within reach of the helmsman. The mainsheet is located on the cabin top. Sail controls have been kept simple, and the anchoring set up with the Lewmar windlass functions well.
Below decks the Beneteau 361's layout excels in terms of a free flowing traffic pattern. The cook is happily removed from the main cabin thoroughfare, in a zone of his or her own. With the saloon's 6'4" headroom an adult can move freely without fear of cracking a head on the overhead. Similarly an adult can sit at the saloon table without having to scrunch around a bulkhead. The forward facing navigation table effectively adds another seat to the already large saloon area, making the main cabin a natural for entertaining. Natural light, lighting, and ventilation are superior in the saloon, as well as the forward and aft cabins.
Beneteau has invested a goodly amount of the boat's interior space in the head enclosure, with a dedicated shower stall. And they have invested even more space in the boats showpiece, a galley that is safe, secure, and offers abundant stowage (dry and refrigerated) and counter space. There is very little downsizing needed, in either the cooks ambitions or their collection of favorite food prep hardware, to make the culinary transition from house to boat.
The boat's wiring, hoses, and through hulls are clearly labeled and accessible, and the swing up companionway steps makes getting to the engine easy. The Beneteau 361 can deliver a world of cruising in just 36 feet.
This Beneteau 361 has been nicely upgraded and meticulously maintained by the current owner. She is turnkey ready to set sail for a late summer cruise .
