This 1984 Golden Star 38 Trawler is a fiberglass trawler powered by twin Perkins diesel engines producing 270 hp combined. The boat measures 38 feet in length with a 12-foot beam, offering comfortable proportions for extended cruising. The twin diesels have logged approximately 3,700 hours and are maintained regularly.
The interior includes two staterooms and two heads arranged for comfortable living. The master stateroom features an island queen bed, vanity, and a private head with shower. The galley is positioned below decks and includes full kitchen facilities. The main cabin is generously proportioned, and the boat provides nearly 7 feet of headroom throughout.
Recent upgrades enhance both comfort and functionality. A 6.5 kW Northern Lights generator was installed in 2020. The electrical system includes newer AGM batteries, a 3,000-watt inverter, and a Starlink system with modem. Navigation equipment comprises Simrad GPS and Radar units (9" and 12" screens) with a Halo 20+ range, an AIS receiver, all networked via NEMA 2000. Two new Raritan Sea Era toilets with new waste lines service a 45-gallon stainless steel holding tank. Climate control comes from two newer AC and heat units. All cabin lights have been converted to LEDs, and the galley includes a newer water heater.
The exterior has been freshly painted topsides and non-skid surfaces. The hull has received fresh bottom anti-foul paint and all new zincs. The boat features minimal teak, simplifying maintenance.
