2026 Schaefer 380

The Schaefer 380 is a 40-foot express cruiser built on an aggressive fiberglass hull with triple Mercury Verado 400 outboards delivering 1,200 hp combined. The design merges open-air performance with thoughtful accommodations, featuring a power-actuated hardtop that transforms the cockpit from sun-drenched gathering space to shaded lounge, flanking folding terraces that expand the social area, and a wide aft sunpad overlooking the swim platform. A retractable sunroof opens overhead, and the helm is positioned for visibility through a wraparound windshield with ergonomic seating and joystick control.

Below, the single cabin features a convertible dinette berth forward, a private stateroom aft, and a full galley with natural light throughout. The full head includes a separate shower compartment. The cockpit connects to the swim platform via a direct passageway, reinforcing the boat's transition between entertaining and water engagement.

Performance-driven by its outboard configuration, the 380 cruises comfortably at 26 knots and reaches a maximum speed of 32 knots. The triple-engine setup provides responsive acceleration and the handling characteristics typical of outboard-powered designs, making it capable for both weekend cruising and day-running along coastal waters.
