Rubicon is loaded with gear and unique upgrades and options! Her owners have cruised her and loved her for 19 years. During that time they have customized the boat on many levels, to make life on board more convenient and cruising safer. Every detail has been thought through before executing - from custom retractable davits, to interior lights having a white/red option; from extending the v-berth in the bow, to replacing the pesky, original vinyl hull liner, which was prone to sagging, with elegant wooden slats and so much more.
The interior of the Moorings 38 is the fabulous Beneteau 'art nouveau' styling of the late 1980's to early 1990's, with rounded cabinets and soft edges juxtaposed with simple straight lines. The M38 is unusual for a 38 foot boat in that it has 2 heads, so is ideal for a family or a 2 couples.
Designed originally as a racer-cruiser, the M38 performs well in both light air and heavy air conditions. It is easy to climb aboard from the sugar scoop transom and the cockpit is not only convivial, it has a lot of storage.
