2001 Mast & Mallet 38 Picnic Boat

This 38-foot Mast & Mallet downeast cruiser was built in 2001 by Mast & Mallet Boat Works to a design by Kaufman Design. The fiberglass hull combines the practical lines of New England lobster boats with Chesapeake Bay workboat heritage, resulting in a capable single-engine cruiser suited equally to fishing, picnicking, or extended cruising. The boat's shallow draft and efficient hull design make it well-suited to bay and coastal waters.

The single Yammer 300-horsepower diesel engine delivers a cruising speed of 15 knots and a top speed of 19 knots, with documented engine hours at 736. Trim tabs improve handling and fuel efficiency. The boat carries Raymarine electronics, a bow thruster for close-quarters maneuvering, and a Lofrans windlass for ground tackle work.

The interior features a V-berth cabin with sleeping accommodation for two and notable wood detailing and cabinetry throughout. A galley and a separate head with shower provide the core necessities for overnight passage and weekend trips. The cabin layout emphasizes practicality without sacrificing comfort.
