Sailpages Buyer's Take

The CB 365 is a fractional sloop designed by Carl Beyer and built by Nicanders Batvarv (SWE) in 1999. With a displacement of 11023.11 lb and a comfort ratio of 20.39, this vessel offers a balanced blend of performance and stability for its era.

Best for:
This boat suits coastal cruisers and weekend sailors who prioritize a comfortable motion and reliable systems over extreme bluewater endurance. Its fractional rig and 26.17 SA/D ratio make it manageable for short-handed sailing.
Bluewater capability:
With a capsize ratio of 2.0 and a D/L ratio of 139.33, the CB 365 is primarily suited for coastal and nearshore cruising rather than extended offshore passages.
Comparables:
Comparable boats include the Beneteau First 36 and the Hallberg-Rassy 36, which share similar fractional sloop rigs and late-90s production eras. These vessels offer similar beam widths and displacement characteristics for coastal cruising.
