Owners and testers describe the 3870 EspritfromCruisers Yachtsas responsive, quick, and surprisingly nimble for a 38-footer. Prototype trials reported a smooth, dry ride in 2–3 ft seas, straight tracking with little need for tab in crosswinds, roughly 6.5 seconds to plane, an easy 25–27 mph cruise, and top-end in the 30–36 mph range depending on engines. Low-speed manners are predictable—at idle it tends to go where you point it—making docking and tight-quarter work straightforward.
Below, the layout is a standout: two private staterooms and two heads, notable headroom (about 6'5") and an aft cabin under the cockpit with around 6' that owners consistently praise. The open salon creates a “great room” feel, with a full galley, forward island queen, and convertible seating, while topside the large cockpit and wet bar suit entertaining and day cruising. In practice, it works for family weekends and can stretch to extended coastal cruising thanks to a large fuel supply (≈300 gallons noted in listings) and common generator options.
Most boats carry MerCruiser 7.4L or 8.1L power, so routine MerCruiser service items and parts availability apply; several listings call out raw-water pump impellers being replaced on roughly two-year intervals. Access is via a cockpit hatch to a compact engine compartment, and multiple sources note that tight clearances can make some repairs more involved. Forum advice characterizes Cruisers Yachtsas a medium-quality, low-production manufacturer and urges a thorough survey—also verify fuel/EFI condition, as a prototype test once recorded a sluggish EFI on one engine.
