1989 Bruce Roberts Offshore 38

The 1989 Bruce Roberts Offshore 38 is a steel-hulled cruising yacht built to proven bluewater standards. Her hull design incorporates a wing keel and full skeg for stability and sailing performance. The steel construction is robust, and the deck and interior fittings include timber salvaged from historic vessels, giving the boat distinctive character throughout.

Power comes from a single BMW diesel engine rated at 35 horsepower. The yacht has demonstrated capability for extended offshore passages, with sailing experience across the East Coast of Australia, Indonesian waters, Malaysia, Thailand, and the Andaman Islands.

The boat underwent substantial refitting in 2011, which included full sandblasting back to bare steel and repainting with AWLGRIP. New deck hatches, portlights, and a modern anchor windlass were installed at that time. The yacht has been maintained in lay-up since 2017 and is ready for her next chapter.
