Overview

The Ribco Seafarer 36 X is an impressive 10.97-meter center console boat that blends high performance with modern luxury. Its sleek fiberglass/GRP hull carries a shallow draft of just 0.70 meters, slipping confidently into lagoons and close-in bays while remaining poised offshore. Powered to reach speeds of up to 60 knots, the hull-and-power pairing delivers a thrilling ride with exemplary stability and precise control. CE certified (Class B) for offshore use, it meets stringent safety standards and is capable of covering up to 200 miles of coastline. Designed to host up to 10 passengers, the Seafarer 36 X artfully balances space and sophistication: two cleverly concealed cabins create private, restful retreats at sea; two expansive sundecks invite languid sunbathing; and two rows of deeply cushioned seating ensure guests travel in comfort, while a separate bathroom elevates convenience on longer passages. More than a day boat, it is an inspired platform for multi-day, glamping-style escapes, with accommodations for four people overnight across two cozy berths. Whether indulging in high-energy daytime exploration or easing into a serene night on the water, the Seafarer 36 X elevates every maritime moment. Key features include very low hours, a Carbon Fiber T-top with solar panels, elegant teak decks, two hidden cabins accommodating up to four people, a broad swim platform, and an upgraded engine package that underscores the boat’s sporting intent.

Walkthrough

At the bow, a small and elegant hard nose forms a surefooted step for boarding and disembarking, while recessed cleats are perfectly positioned to minimize snagging and eliminate injury risk. The bow sundeck is generously sized for indulgent lounging and sunbathing. Forward, a compact hatch gives access to the windlass compartment and anchor chain, with the chain exiting through the stem and settling precisely on its stainless-steel base. A larger hatch, raised by an electro-hydraulic mechanism, unveils a spacious forward double berth comfortably suited to two adults. The T-top is perhaps the defining feature of the Seafarer 36 X: crafted entirely from carbon fiber, it is at least 100 kg lighter than a conventional structure and keeps the center of gravity lower, harmonizing beautifully with the boat’s overall layout. Two independent, modular backrests—long a hallmark of the brand—pivot forward to transform the cockpit into a vast aft sunbed capable of hosting several guests. The stern sofa easily seats four adults and leaves a practical central passageway for smooth movement toward the engines. Beneath the aft sunbed, a large storage compartment converts quickly into a berth for two adults, extending the boat’s overnight capability. Aftmost, the swim platform remains blissfully free of obstacles, granting unencumbered movement for swimming, docking, and effortless boarding.

Navigation and instruments

Deck and cockpit

The carbon T-top integrates a fixed windscreen with wiper to shield the helm, while the console hosts a marine toilet with a sink for added privacy and comfort.

Practicality is assured by a deck wash system offering both saltwater and freshwater, keeping the decks spotless throughout the day.

Electric equipment
