FIVE 38-FOOT USED BOATS FOR YOUR CRUISE

A CHAMPION OF COMFORT – BAVARIA 38

Comfortable benches and wide passages to the bow make the deck of this Bavaria, which also features a built-in electric swim platform, livable. The interior is airy, thanks to three large skylights in the center of the deckhouse. The saloon offers a dinette with fold-down table and opposing sofas, a galley, and a chart table. For the night you can choose between two cabins or three double cabins, served by one bathroom. In this case, the model, 11.75 long and 3.9 wide, is the 2-cabin master version and a large toilet.

THE GLOBETROTTER BOAT – HALLBERG-RASSY 38

The second of the used boats for sale on our marketplace will appeal to many. We are talking about a 1984 Hallberg-Rassy 38 (length 11.75 m, max. beam 3.48 m), designed by Olle Enderlein in 1977 (and remained in production until 1986). The boat, with the central, well-protected cockpit that is its trademark, is perfect for those who want to sail for a long time even in less hospitable waters than the Mediterranean. The model can be seen in Chiavari (Genoa) and is powered by Yanmar 75 hp (1,200 hours). Osmosis treatment to the hull and overhaul were done in 2020: it is sold fully equipped, with tender and 7 sails.
