The Omega 36 is a fast and seaworthy boat, built by a reputable Scandinavian yard who also built some Scanmar and Maxi models. Designed by Ron Holland, he has bridged the gap between racer and elegant cruiser, and can be compared to the Finngulf 36, X-342, Sigma 362 and possibly the Moody 336. She is easy to handle with her fractional rig, swept back spreaders and self-tacking jib. ?Crackertoo? is presented in good condition with many upgrades over the years and is certainly a yacht to consider if you want a family cruising yacht with ample fast sailing performance.
