Owner Experience Review

Owners treat the 38 SbyWAJERas a true luxury dayboat and superyacht tender: it’s a favorite for family cruising, Riviera day charters, and chase‑boat duty. The platform launched in 2015 and has been refreshed through 2020–2024 with newer‑generation options, including a later foil‑assist that owners and press say smooths the ride with less slamming. Its tow eye and generous gear stowage make watersports days easy, swallowing Seabobs, wakeboards, and SUPs without eating into guest space.

On the water, independent tests describe a confident, dry ride that stays controllable in chop and tight turns. Typical cruising is around 25–30 knots (many report ~28 knots), with top speeds from roughly 40 knots into the mid‑40s+ depending on power and whether the boat runs IPS or higher‑output/outboard packages. The center‑console layout frees up social space around a big foredeck sunpad and U‑shaped aft seating, while the helm’s suspended Stidd chairs and ergonomic dashboard keep long days easy. A compact toilet and fridge in the console plus options like Seakeeper, air‑conditioning, generator, and high‑end audio make day use genuinely comfortable, though accommodation remains minimal—realistically an overnight for one or two at most.

Upkeep is a strong point: one independent write‑up called the boat “virtually maintenance‑free” thanks to modern materials and the tender/dayboat focus. WAJERsupports ownership with Wajer Care service hubs, and many pre‑owned examples carry a factory service trail. Where fitted, Volvo Penta IPS pods deliver performance but do require specialist servicing compared with simple outboards. The engine room is neatly installed with good service access and still leaves generous volume for toy stowage, underlining the model’s practical tender DNA.

Pros and Cons

  • Confident, dry ride with precise handling in chop and tight turns.
  • Thoughtful day‑boat layout with a big foredeck sunpad, U‑shaped seating, center‑console flow, and ample toy stowage.
  • Foil‑assist upgrade smooths the ride with less slamming, and options like Seakeeper, A/C, and a generator enhance day comfort.
  • Minimal overnight accommodation; best suited to day use rather than extended cruising.
  • Many examples use IPS pods that require specialist servicing and add maintenance complexity versus simple outboards.
  • Real‑world performance and top speed vary by engine configuration, so expectations must match the chosen specification.
