OWNER’S COMMENTS:
I bought CHULITA in 2010. After purchase, I kept her in Scandinavia, enjoying annual summer cruises to Sweden and Norway. We also participated in the ORC Worlds in Kiel in 2014 - our first big race and we ended in the top third of the fleet, which was much better than we expected. We have absolutely no problem racing against X-37s and similar boats and matching their speed.
Following our time in Scandinavia, we moved CHULITA to the Mediterranean where we have enjoyed her since. She has been continually updated and refitted to keep her in fantastic condition and also to make her even better suited to ‘off-grid’ longer term cruising. The recent addition of solar panels and Lithium service batteries allows us to stay anchored for 5-6 days without needing to generate further power from the engine.
MANUFACTURER’S COMMENTS:
In 1993 the ultimate racer was born. The X-362 was an exceptionally stiff yacht and appealed to more conservative sailors who demanded high levels of comfort.
Based on the success of the original X-362, a Sports version was added in 1998. She had a deeper, lighter keel, fractional rig, enlarged wheel and mahogany interior.
In the design process of the X-362, the attention to winning potential was of secondary priority. The first priority was the demand for a timeless, comfortable, safe and easily handled yet perfect sailing 36-footer with adequate room and facility for a "normal family" - but of course by giving her the "standard" X-Yachts attention to smooth and fast sailing, enabling her to also please the performance-orientated sailor.
The new Sports design with more sail area made a big enough difference to beat the little sister X-332 which won more regattas than any earlier X-Yachts, including the IMS European Championship - suddenly it was the X-362 Sport which in 1999 was unbeatable, winning in both IMS (European IMS C/R winner) and IRC. 2000 results including UK IRC Nationals, Cord Cork Week - and Frühjahrswoche in Germany.
