Vessel is in the water, available for trial run!
SHE IS TURNKEY READY FOR SPRING FISHING
Load the rods and ice, power up the electronics, hit start buttons and GO!!!!
This owner is serious to sell! The current owner purchased her in 2008 and has since kept her maintained to the highest standard. Her mechanical and electrical systems are professionally maintained and a highly respected yacht management company has taken care of her topside aesthetics since 2008. She is washed bi-monthly when not in use and is in a monthly rotation for topside gelcoat and metal polish and wax. She is annually hauled, serviced and hull polished and waxed.
Let's not forget the "Magician" is rigged to be fished!!! The current owner has heavy tackle fished with some of the best Captains around the world and has caught many marlin over 800lbs and bluefin tuna exceeding 1000lbs! The owner has incorporated what he has learned from how they set their boats up on the Magician. She is rigged to fish for Giant Bluefin in Maine or giant Allison tuna in the Gulf of Mexico and anything in between!

you immediately feel like you are in a much bigger boat considering the
size of the cockpit and the bridge deck because of the open floor plan.

electronics panel and Westerbeke gender control panel are at the top of
the bulkhead and there rod storage over the couch back. Forward of the
the couch is a floor to ceiling hanging locker. To port amidship is a

is a 12v/110v Norcold fridge/freezer with locking doors with stainless

running water and storage cupboards above and below. All the way forward
is a double bunk to port and rod lockers above on both sides of the
upper hull, and also rod hangers beneath. There is ample storage under
the bunk as well as under the shelf running along the starboard side.
There is plenty of overhead sectioned 12v and 110v lighting overhead
and natural light is provided by the overhead Bonar hatch and the two
side port holes.
Manufacturer Description
Henriques' 38 El Bravo boat aims to please the die-hard sports
fisherman. Her heavy weather hull, the same as on the 38 Sportfisherman,
has proven capable of taking on even the worst sea conditions. As one
owner put it, "This boat can take anything you throw at it."
Like
the other boats in Henriques' lineup, the El Bravo boasts a lot of
cockpit space - 140 square feet, to be exact. She also has two 103
gallon fish boxes, complete bait & tackle center, fresh and
saltwater washdowns, 10 stainless swivel steel rod holders, and plenty
of room for the Pompanette Unlimited Fighting Chair. A fiberglass
hardtop, flush mounted electronics console, chart table, and lockable
rod stowage are just part of the long list of standard features that
prime this 38 footer to do battle with the big ones.
But don't
think that her hardcore fishing capabilities leave this boat lacking in
accommodations. For those overnight jaunts, there is air conditioning,
genset, a fully equipped head with shower, and a galley with
refrigerator/freezer; microwave, sink, stowage, and convertible dinette.
The 38 El Bravo is truly the ultimate in quality! Everything you'd expect from the boat the pros use!
