The 2001 Beneteau 361 is a 36-foot fiberglass cruising sailboat built for comfortable passagemaking and family use. It features a spacious interior with good headroom, a forward-facing navigation station, a large head with separate shower, and a well-appointed galley with ample counter space. The main salon is expansive and designed for livable cruising. The boat handles responsibly under both sail and power, with responsive helm characteristics and manageable proportions in tight spaces.
The layout prioritizes comfort and functionality below decks while maintaining good sightlines from the helm and generous cockpit room. The single Westerbeke diesel engine of 25 horsepower provides reliable auxiliary power. The boat's construction and design emphasize stability and safety, making it well-suited to extended cruising.
Recent maintenance includes a raw water intake impeller replacement in 2024 and a new hot water heater in the same year. Spring 2022 saw replacement motor mounts installed, along with a new bimini top and refreshed dodger glass. The bottom was scraped, sanded, and painted with two coats in spring 2021. The mainsail was replaced by Evolution/Latrell that same season, and the genoa telltales were renewed. An oil change and fuel filter replacement were also completed in 2021.
