Such has been the response to this design that plans for it's construction are available in steel, aluminum, FIBREGLASS and Wood Epoxy. There is also the choice of constructing the hull in either radius chine, multi chine or round bilge.

Designed as a performance cruiser, this boat has proven itself both in club racing and long distance cruising. Over 500 Roberts 370's have already been completed and several have sailed around the world.

There are several versions of this design as you will notice below. Besides giving you the choice of building this design in either an aft cockpit, center cockpit or pilot house configuration you may also chose between a cutter, sloop or ketch rig. She has proven to perform well with either sailplan. There are several shoal draft and deep keel options to choose from as well.

	ROBERTS 370 A Another view of this boat built in Turkey. We are travelling in AEGEAN Seas since three years with our boat made by the plans we bought from you I live in Turkey, my name is Ali Osman Altınkut. Thanks a lot for this pleasure. If you contact me I'd be glad to write the details.
	NEW CUSTOM FEATURE: SAFETY SKEG IS AVAILABLE ON THIS BOAT. The Roberts safety skeg is designed to take the best features from the LONG FIN / SKEG combination and add a SAFETY FACTOR. Many of you may be aware that skegs in general are vulnerable to damage so here is our answer to this problem. EMAIL Bruce to more details of this development .

	Roberts 370 E This Radius Chine, Aluminum Roberts 370 E was built in Australia
	Roberts 370 E
	This multi chine steel R370 was built in Finland and owner Petra Karklen writes: "Before the first time I sailed her I had been a bit scared about her character and performance. From the beginning it became clear that she performed well and was easily handled. The next few months and many miles of sailing proved it true
	Roberts 370 F This boat was built in Wood / Epoxy by Russ Stevenson who comments "Inkwazi (which is the name of a fish eagle in South Africa) has turned out to be everything we hoped for. She sails extremely well and seems well balanced and will in fact sail herself on all points forward of the beam."
	Roberts 370 F I have sailed on this Roberts 370 F and it is beautifully built and sails like a dream - congratulations to Russ Stevenson
