The later 'cruising' version of the Sigma 36 one-design racer, this is still a fast and powerful yacht, with excellent handling, and very attractive looks. Unlike many of these Sigma 362s, this example has only ever been privately owned, and not been chartered, used for a sailing school or raced. She has been maintained in very nice condition, and is for sale now only because the present owner has just placed an order for a new, larger boat for longer distance cruising.

Keel type

Lead and iron fin keel with spade rudder

Designed by David Thomas, and sold in fairly large numbers through the 1980s, the Sigma 362 was a 'detuned' cruising version of the successful Sigma 36 racer. She was one of the first Sigmas to have a modern double aft cabin layout, and yet retains most of the performance and all of the superb handling that makes all the Sigma yachts sought after.

The Sigma 362 has a lead and iron (lead-base on an iron fin) keel with a good ballast ratio, and an easily handled masthead rig. They are strongly built, and the design quickly proved very popular with both club racers, and with sailing schools, which is why many of these boats are very well used - this particular yacht being the exception as it has only had private use throughout her life.

'Sailing Today' described the design as a modern classic, and said ".... The Sigma 362 achieves an admirable balance between creature comforts, sailing performance and good looks, which is about all that I’d ask for in my ideal cruiser."
