2002 • Beneteau 361

This Beneteau 361 has the classic Beneteau interior with beautiful rich cherry wood finish. She is a 2-cabin version with conversion option to make the dinette into a double berth and settee to port (sleeps 7) which is perfect for entertaining your friends and family.

You'll find every needed amenity as you prepare for evening guests in one of the most seaworthy galleys afloat - complete with a large front-loading refrigerator and adjacent ice box. There are double stainless-steel sinks, a two-burner propane stove with oven, cupboards, and plenty of workspace. And the new Beneteau 361 is designed for both serious cruisers and those who enjoy entertaining on-board. You'll find plenty of storage space to stow all your cooking gear and supplies. Entertaining in the salon is a delight. The large dining table and U-shaped settee converts to a berth for overnight guests. The well-lighted interior boasts 6' 4" headroom and features a large deck hatch, halogen reading lights and overhead lights. A strong point for the navigator is the chart table facing forward with plenty of working room, an outboard electrical panel and general instrument mounting surface.

The Beneteau 361 has been designed so that it can be easily sailed singlehanded. Her bulb/fin keel and low center of gravity give you maximum stability and efficiency on all points of sail. The standard roller furling genoa provide true ease of handling. Only the highest quality hardware is installed on her well laid-out deck. And the winches are within an arm's reach of the helm.
