About this boat
From the selling broker.
The Najad 361 was a development of the earlier, very popular Najad 36. The new hull featured a longer waterline and an extended aft overhang. The NACA wing-section keel and semi-balanced rudder updated her underwater profile. On deck, the rig configuration was updated, with the shrouds coming inboard to improve sheeting angles. This hull development improved windward sailing performance and comfort on board while at sea.
Below decks, the layout was updated to provide comfortable accommodation for 4 in two cabins, with a further two occasional berths in the saloon. Purchased in 2016, JAGEN is with her second owner since leaving the Najad factory. A lightly used example she has been based in Ardfern for the last 10 years and used only for local coastal cruising, wintering ashore under a full boat cover normally.
Her inventory highlights include: Original gelcoat finish to hull and deck Ballast keel blasted and epoxy coated in 2021 Volvo Penta MD22 marine diesel engine Darglow Maxprop 3-blade, feathering propeller Spurs rope cutter Zinc Saver II Galvanic Isolator Adverc smart battery management system with alternator controller Merlin Poweramp Battery Charger B&G V7 chartplotter Raymarine ST60 navigation instruments Sailor DSC VHF Force 10 Marine galley range cooker Eberspächer diesel-fired blown-air heating system Jabsco manual marine toilet with holding tank Full standing rigging replacement in 2017 Mainsail and Genoa in Hydranet, Owen Sails (2017) Cruising chute Lewmar VX vertical windlass Full boat winter cover Lying afloat the Najad 361 is available for immediate viewing on her mooring in Ardfern, Argyll, Scotland.
