The Sigma 362, designed by David Thomas, has proved to be a fast, well mannered and easily handled family cruiser, a delight to sail. The spacious layout below is both practical and sea manlike, whether at sea or in harbour. "Time Flies" was originally supplied new by Clarke & Carter and has enjoyed a life of good maintenance and constant upgrading. Full list of upgrades available.
