Marketing Description VAGABOND, a Van de Stadt designed Helena 38, is a beautifully balanced performance cruiser, combining classic European design with impressive offshore capability. Renowned for her elegant lines, solid construction, and rewarding sailing characteristics, the Helena 38 appeals equally to discerning cruisers and keen sailors seeking both comfort and speed. Designed by the highly respected Dutch naval architect E.G. van de Stadt in 1996, she looks like a more traditional classic yacht. Her moderate displacement hull, fine entry, and well-proportioned rig deliver confident, responsive handling across a wide range of conditions, making her as capable on extended passages as she is enjoyable for coastal cruising. Below decks offers generous accommodation, a well-appointed galley, and a secure navigation station, making her ideal for extended cruising or liveaboard use. Whether you are planning serious offshore passages or relaxed weekends aboard, the Vagabond represents a compelling blend of performance, seaworthiness, and enduring style.Mechanical Nanni 3.100 HE 29hp inboard diesel engine (2007)Last full service in 2022Shaft drive with folding propWheel steering4 X Lewmar self tailing winches TanksFuel: 55lWater: 440lElectrical 4x 12v Domestic batteries1x 12v Engine battery1x 12v Electric anchor windlass batteryV240/12v Victron Energy inverter/charger Shore power connection and lead 2x Solar panelsSolar module charger 45w (2018)Rigging Fractional rigDeck stepped aluminium mast, installed by all sparsStanding and running rigging original from 2011Furlex headsail furlingSpinnaker poleRemovable inner forestay SailsSanders Mainsail (2010)Sanders Genoa (2010)Sanders Cruising chute (Unused)Sanders Storm jib (Unused)Navigation Standard Horizon CP300 ChartplotterSimrad AC42 AutopilotNASA Clipper speed and depthSEA-ME active radar reflectorStandard Horizon Quest X GX1500E VHF radio NavtexDeck Mooring linesFendersManson Supreme 20kg anchor and chainElectric anchor windlassSprayhoodBimini Winch coversHatch coversCockpit enclosureCockpit tableMiscellaneous Available by separate negotiation.Airmar 2.4m dinghy with Torqeedo Travel 1003CS Electric outboard (New 2018)Accommodation Forward Cabin Large double berth to portStorage cupboards and wardrobeSeat to starboard Deck hatchSaloonCherry wood interior throughoutSeating to port and starboardFolding saloon table Storage cupboardsClock and barometer TVFusion MS-AV600 radio/audio system Chart table to starboard GalleyWallas KMW87D diesel oven/hobDouble sinkBuilt in fridge boxStorage cupboards Aft CabinDouble berthStorage cupboards/wardrobeHeadsJabsco toilet Washbasin with pull out showerStorage cupboardsMirrorConstruction Spade rudderAntifouled in December 2024Documentation VAT import document The vessel was fitted by the previous owner for his use and as such there is no RCD certificate or CE plate on the boat.Disclaimer For a full, detailed specification with additional photographs and direct contact details for the listing office visit our website The Company offers the details of this vessel in good faith but cannot guarantee or warrant the accuracy of this information nor warrant the condition of the vessel.
