Yesterdays assignment was at Norfolk Yacht Agency in Brundall Surveying one of their stock boats. They usually offer a part-exchange facility on all purchases and their own stock boats are pre- inspected and prepared and are usually sold with a warranty.
The accommodation is also well appointed with cabins that consist of a double forward and a cleverly designed amidships that can adapt to sleep up to three people. The dinette converts from sitting, to dining, to a large sun pad in one movement thanks to a slide-in stowage area within part of the seat base.
It should be noted that many S38’s suffered from stress cracks along the chines and spay rails, especially under the saloon settee which was a known week point. Sealine covered them all under warranty, and repairs were usually carried out by Desty marine as a subcontractor. There should be history to confirm the repairs held by the owner.

| A boat's electrical systems may not seem like the most exciting place to begin a description of a boat like the S38 but I think it's a great example of Sealine's philosophy of instinctive innovation. The lighting system is pretty amazing and the DC panel display was fascinating! |
