Owners comments
After the great success of the Princess 37, the newly developed 38 model was introduced. With her large owners cabin, new interior and exterior styling, the 38 model was built for many years.
Still very much a model in demand. With her twin Ford diesels she can plane and cover larger distances quite fast but can also cruise along more economically than her more powerful sisters. This is a good example of this popular large family flybridge cruiser. The usual Princess build quality made the 38 one of the most popular boats of her era, and these virtues hold good to this day.
These boats are known for their seaworthy handling and a good turn of speed. Below, there is plenty of space in two cabins and the large, bright saloon provides an additional three berths. Her large saloon/wheelhouse can be increased by opening her doors to the cockpit making her very accessible and comfortable. and comes well equipped. She makes a good live aboard
Located in Devon the owner is selling due to moving abroad. and has all the paper work and history going back to when it was built, would benefit from the soft furnishings being replaced , the head liner in the forward cabin especially, few little jobs to do but she’s is an older boat
She comes with spares, a dingy two out boards life jackets ropes fenders.
VAT understood to have been paid but not evidenced.
