Does anybody own or have experience of these boats? Build quality, sailing performance, etc.
Anybody?
Unlikely as only a tiny number sold in UK (probably the one for sale in Kent is the only one!) so doubt anybody here has any direct experience.
I have been looking at the 361 for a while. Great boat with good reviews. That was a very nice boat. The 391 is a fair bit older from design if I remember correctly. But build quality should be pretty good. Personally not fond of the scoop stern. There are a few for sale in Holland as far as I can see. There was a claim that the 391's keel construction was tested by hitting a rock at 5 knots without springing a leak. Test review of the 361 I have ranks the yard pretty high.
Is it more than 15 years old?
Yes 17 years old. 1998 boat.
CONGRATULATIONS. Looks like a lovely boat.
Now, that's what I call an upgrade!

Looks like a smashing boat that wasn't really on my radar before I saw this thread. Would be nice if you were to tell us more when you have had a chance to sail her a bit, objective comments of course rather than the owner biased stuff that is the norm. Best of luck with a very lovely new toy.

Congratulations! That's a nice boat. Judging by your pictures I see a lot of similarities with our Starlight, so that can't be bad. I hope you will enjoy her as much as we enjoy ours.

Just looked at a few Google images of the 391 - she somehow looks just right, sits beautifully in the water and I'd expect her to be very comfortable in a bit of wind, especially when in forward of the beam. I suspect she'll be keen to stretch her legs when you've finished sprucing her up - so prob time to time to fire up the PC and thinking about where to go!
Hi, The boat looks great! I have a fractional rig 391, we are in our 7th year with it and I am still very pleased with the boat! If I could work out how I would send you a picture!! You may be able to help, do you have an AVS for your boat? I have entered this years triangle race and need this for my entry. Any help will be greatly appreciated. Very best regards Chris Grey
Nice to hear from you. Probably not a good idea to show your email address on a public forum - you will get loads of spam. But I have made a note of it. You have to upload pictures to a server such as photobucket (or your own web space) and then link to them. Where are you based? We are in Portsmouth Harbour and I have noticed 2 other 391s in the Solent area one called "Arrow" and one called "Trombone" I think. Ours in number 106 and called "Sea Reach" due to her east coast background. The Triangle Race is on my wish list too. I don't have stability curves or the AVS but the boat has a Category A certificate under the RCD so somebody must have done the stability work. We have been in touch with the designer and he might be able to help. I can send you his email address if you need it.

Scanyacht 390 DS is a 39 ′ 0 ″ / 11.9 m monohull sailboat designed by Ed Dubois and built by Scanyacht AB starting in 1992.
Auxilary power, accomodations, calculations.
The theoretical maximum speed that a displacement hull can move efficiently through the water is determined by it's waterline length and displacement. It may be unable to reach this speed if the boat is underpowered or heavily loaded, though it may exceed this speed given enough power. Read more.
Classic hull speed formula:
Hull Speed = 1.34 x √LWL
Max Speed/Length ratio = 8.26 ÷ Displacement/Length ratio .311 Hull Speed = Max Speed/Length ratio x √LWL
A measure of the power of the sails relative to the weight of the boat. The higher the number, the higher the performance, but the harder the boat will be to handle. This ratio is a "non-dimensional" value that facilitates comparisons between boats of different types and sizes. Read more.
SA/D = SA ÷ (D ÷ 64) 2/3
A measure of the stability of a boat's hull that suggests how well a monohull will stand up to its sails. The ballast displacement ratio indicates how much of the weight of a boat is placed for maximum stability against capsizing and is an indicator of stiffness and resistance to capsize.
Ballast / Displacement * 100
A measure of the weight of the boat relative to it's length at the waterline. The higher a boat’s D/L ratio, the more easily it will carry a load and the more comfortable its motion will be. The lower a boat's ratio is, the less power it takes to drive the boat to its nominal hull speed or beyond. Read more.
D/L = (D ÷ 2240) ÷ (0.01 x LWL)³
This ratio assess how quickly and abruptly a boat’s hull reacts to waves in a significant seaway, these being the elements of a boat’s motion most likely to cause seasickness. Read more.
Comfort ratio = D ÷ (.65 x (.7 LWL + .3 LOA) x Beam 1.33 )
This formula attempts to indicate whether a given boat might be too wide and light to readily right itself after being overturned in extreme conditions. Read more.
CSV = Beam ÷ ³√(D / 64)

Scanyacht 390
Description.
'Omega' is an excellent example of this Ed Dubois-designed fast sailing deck saloon cruiser - one of only a few built and highly sought after. The Scanyacht 390 build specification is in excess of normal construction standards and this yacht has further benefited from a continuous programme of updating and maintenance.
This is a yacht for serious sailing - her present live-aboard owners have cruised her around the UK, Ireland and northern Europe where they have found her more than capable of handling all the conditions they have encountered.
Whilst 'Omega' has nine berths when various settees are brought into play, she has a four-cabin layout which provides civilised separation for two couples between the double forecabin, with its ensuite heads, and the double aft cabin, also with ensuite heads. Between these lies a well-appointed, comfortable, 'off-watch' dining saloon providing two sea berths (in addition to the deck saloon. The deck saloon, which contains a full-size chart table, helming/navigation area and a raised seating area, provides a good view of the outside world whilst sitting down, and the cook also enjoys the outside world because the extensive galley is also in the deck saloon.
A very special yacht well equipped to cruise in comfort and safety. Well worth viewing afloat in Dartmouth

Three-ninety seems a lucky number for Sea Ray . Few yachts in the builder’s history have been as successful as the Sea Ray 390 Express Cruiser, built from 1984 to 1991. It was one of the first big express designs, and helped blaze a trail that others would follow. It has been more than a decade of change in boating, but the Sea Ray 390 (39 feet, give or take a few inches) is still a magic number-Sea Ray’s latest Sundancer is on target.
Sea Ray builds all sorts of boats, but the Sundancer brand is perhaps the most well known. In Sea Ray-speak, the company no longer builds a 390 Express Cruiser, since the mid-cabin layout of the Sundancer line has dominated customer interest. Without splitting hairs, I would suggest that it has dominated the “express market”, as well.
Sea Ray fans will find the 390’s features familiar, and those new to the marque will likely be impressed. She is far more sophisticated than her distant sister, yet she shares proportions that have always made sense to me. Though the 390 is midsize in today’s market, she is large enough for a couple to cruise comfortably but not so large she will be a handful dockside when it comes time to clean up.
The Sea Ray 390 replaces the 380 and fits between the 360 and the 420 in Sea Ray’s Sundancer lineup. Like the 420, she displays Sea Ray’s new look, which all in the family will eventually share. Her deck lines balance her sweeping reverse sheer, which peaks amidships and drops aft, incorporating an integral swim platform. She is pleasantly free of hull graphics-her optional dark-blue hull and contrasting white deck define her lines. All are capped by a forward-raking arch or, as was the case with our test boat, an integral arch/hardtop. Both complement her slightly aggressive posture.
The Sea Ray 390’s helm design incorporates many of the features Sea Ray has developed to consolidate and simplify vessel operation. The automotive-inspired console, designed to accommodate the Sea Ray Navigator system, leaves everything within reach. The system’s 10.4-inch, sunlight-viewable touch-screen LCD conveys charting and navigation information in a user-friendly format. The 390 is also equipped with Mercury Marine’s SmartCraft electronic information system. The helm-mounted control head coordinates and displays data from a number of sources. On our test boat, data included engine vitals, fuel burn, range, navigation information, depth, and air and seawater temperature.
The 390 I tested was fitted with a pair of 370 hp MerCruiser 8.1S Horizon gas engines with ZF V-drives. This shaft-line configuration keeps weight aft, which benefits performance and maximizes interior accommodation space, making the mid-cabin layout possible. The cockpit sole lifts with the push of a button, allowing good access to the engine compartment.
Acceleration to maximum speed took 15 seconds; I recorded 30.2 knots. The SmartCraft electronics indicated 4700 rpm with a total fuel burn of 60.3 gallons per hour. At 3900 rpm, I noted a speed of 23.9 knots and a fuel burn of 39.1 gallons per hour.
The fuel-burn figures tell the story. For a boat of this size and type, gas power is fine if you don’t wander far. Diesel power would be a wise choice for more serious cruising. Sea Ray offers a Cummins package, and I inspected the first installation in the 390 diesel prototype. While data is not yet available, it seems a good match, and I would expect solid performance.
At speed, the 390 has excellent response and feel. Though the Intracoastal Waterway offered little challenge, my sense is that she will deliver the dry, comfortable ride typical of Sea Ray designs. Her 19-degree transom deadrise is appropriate for her size and service. Driving position (standing, leaning or sitting) is excellent thanks to an adjustable steering wheel and an adjustable helm seat, which has a flip-up bolster.
I toured the Merritt Island, Florida , production line where the Sea Ray 390 is built alongside the 360 and 420. I have inspected a number of Sea Ray facilities over the years, and I have always been impressed by the company’s process and people. When I asked about the fastening of the hull-deck joint, I was referred to a fellow on the line who had been handling the task for 20 years. Such tenure is rare in production boatbuilding, but it seems the norm at Sea Ray.
The hull of the Sea Ray 390 is a handlaid blend of fiberglass woven roving, stitched reinforcements and mat. Polyester resin is used for general lamination, while a vinylester skin coat reduces the chance of blistering. Longitudinal stringers are molded fiberglass, and bulkheads are plywood; all are glassed in place. Balsa coring stiffens the cockpit sole and foredeck. Exterior fit and finish are excellent, a reflection of Sea Ray’s tooling, which is produced using a five-axis mill capable of tolerances within thousandths of an inch.
The cockpit of the Sea Ray 390 follows the Sundancer theme with an open seating area aft for entertaining dockside or lounging while under way. The swim platform is steps away, as is a wet bar fitted with a sink, cooler stowage and an icemaker (a refrigerator in place of the icemaker is optional). The helm has bench-style companion seating for two. While the hardtop’s hatch and the windshield’s vent are effective, an air-conditioning duct at the helm would be useful in the South Florida summer. The side decks are easy to navigate, and the foredeck is designed to accommodate a sunpad, which is perfect for lounging.
If you haven’t inspected a Sea Ray interior lately, you might be surprised. The fabric, wood veneer and tambour finishes of the past have been replaced with a durable synthetic faux-wood finish. Edges of doors and drawers are trimmed with wood. The design is so well executed I confess that the first time I saw it I thought it was the real thing. In terms of style, the rich wood tone, high-quality soft goods, and upscale fixtures and hardware are more refined than those that have come before. Because of this, I suspect the 390’s look will have a longer shelf life.
The cabin is arranged with a settee that converts to a double berth, and a table that stows out of the way forward. An entertainment system includes a 20-inch flat-screen TV that pulls out, revealing a stowage area for media-very clever. The galley is outfitted with a microwave oven, a two-burner cooktop and an under-counter dual-voltage refrigerator and a separate freezer. The mid-cabin, abaft the entryway, serves as a seating area by day and a double berth by night. The forward cabin has a full-size berth with an innerspring mattress. A 13-inch TV/DVD player is standard. The dual-access head compartment and separate shower compartment make sense on a boat with a single head. Both areas are finished in molded fiberglass.
My bet is that Sea Ray has hit another home run. Whether you intend to spend a day coasting the waterway or a week wandering the Bahamas, the Sea Ray 390 seems a perfect fit.

Welcome to the forum. ... As with any 25+ year old boat, it is important to consider the current condition and past maintenance. The engine is worth close inspection as the 2003T originally fitted is not one of Volvo's best efforts.

Review of Scanyacht 390. Basic specs. The Scanyacht 390 is a sailboat designed by the French maritime architect Edward George Dubois. The Scanyacht 390 is built by the British yard Scanyacht. Here we would have liked to show you nice photos of the Scanyacht 390.
LENGTH: Traditionally, LOA (length over all) equaled hull length. Today, many builders use LOA to include rail overhangs, bowsprits, etc. and LOD (length on deck) for hull length. That said, LOA may still mean LOD if the builder is being honest and using accepted industry standards developed by groups like the ABYC (American Boat and Yacht Council).
SCANYACHT 390 I'm searching in vain for details of this Ed Dubois design.

The 390 was one of the last designs from Axel Mohnhaupt before the change to J&J.

Keel. The Scanner 391 is equipped with a fin keel. A boat with a fin keel is more manoeuvrable but has less directional stability than a similar boat with a long keel. The keel is made of lead. Compared with iron, lead has the advantage of being 44% heavier, which allows a smaller keel and hence less water resistance and higher speed.

One week it must be blue with two loos, the next red with a fin and skeg. It's a battle between heart and head and even more complicated as a couple.
