DescriptionThis Nauticat 38 Pilothouse is a classic example of the robust Finnish pedigree these boats are known for, offering a solid, comfortable platform for extended cruising in all weathers.

The pilothouse layout gives excellent protection and visibility, making her particularly well suited to Scottish and northern cruising, while still retaining the warm, traditional feel below.

Her long keel and substantial displacement inspire confidence at sea, and the ketch rig provides flexible and easily managed sail options, with a newer suit of sails fitted in 2020 complemented by a full set of older spares. The Selden spars and recent standing rigging add further peace of mind.

Below decks she feels warm, practical and welcoming, with generous headroom, plenty of natural light and comfortable accommodation for up to six in two cabins and the saloon. The layout works well for living aboard, with a fully equipped galley, diesel cabin heating, hot and cold pressurised water, and two heads including an electric toilet.

The Nanni 85hp engine, installed in 2007, offers strong, dependable power and is well matched to the boat, while the addition of a bow thruster makes close-quarters handling far less daunting.

On deck she is well set up for cruising with ample winches, good ground tackle with electric windlass and remote, and a comprehensive navigation and safety inventory including AIS, autopilot and liferaft.

Overall, this is a capable, well-specified cruising yacht with real character, ideal for anyone looking for a serious passage-maker that remains comfortable and manageable.
