Description

The 362 evolved the heritage and pedigree of the Sigma 36 and developed it into a more modern and comfortable cruiser-racer with timeless appeal. Her layout includes fore and aft enclosed cabins with a spacious saloon and heads aft to starboard.

Her classic lines and balanced rig deliver a great sailing experience. We've had a very good ownership experience sailing in the Solent, competing in the Round the Island Race and visiting Devon and Guernsey.

This is a 1988 (Hull # H9132) wing (delta) keel boat with a draft of only 1.45m with no compromise in upwind performance. See Practical Boat Owner feature (May 2020) if you need any proof this is the boat for you!

Builder's certificate present (Marine Projects Plymouth Ltd) and transaction receipts with a large history file including operating manuals and more receipts. Surveyed March 2025.

We've owned Skylark since September 2021, (only 3 previous owners) having acquired her from a meticulous Poole-based owner who invested in lots of significant updates, maintenance and improvements which we have continued with.
