Elan 362 – 2002 - £49,950
The Elan 362 is a fast and powerful 6 berth performance cruiser. Designed by Rob
Humphreys, known for his performance designs for Oyster yachts and the BT Global Challenge 70’ fleet, amongst many other award-winning yachts.
This Elan 362 is one of the sought after ‘owner’s version’ of the Elan 36 model, the 362 features a more indulgent use of space with an L-shaped galley to port with a single aft double cabin, and a roomier aft heads compartment with a much larger cockpit storage locker. This is a nice example, only on her second ownership from new, and benefiting from a number of important upgrades under the current ownership including all new cockpit ‘Permateek’ sheathing fitted this winter.

The designer, Rob Humphreys, describes the boat as follows:
'It is a good size to sail short-handed, by a couple for example, and yet is big enough to accommodate a family or up to six with ease.......the 362 is a well-proportioned boat with a comfortable cockpit and plenty of easily worked deck space. She has a deep cockpit locker to starboard which will easily take spare sails, fenders, dinghy, outboard and have room for more.
The 362 is an updated version of the 36 and more of an owner’s model with a traditional interior layout and an L-shaped galley.'
