1988 Mediterranean 38 Convertible

Cosmetically, this is one of the cleanest, Mediterranean 38's of this age that I have ever seen, Gorgeous!! This boat has a new, custom interior designed by an artist, she is very well equipped and shows pride of ownership throughout!!

The 38 Mediterranean is a high quality Convertible built in California on a semi-V hull ideal for fishing, diving or family cruising. Featuring a single stateroom layout with down galley provides expansive interior accommodations that are normally reserved for much larger vessels.  

   Fishing, cruising, or enjoying a day at the docks, this Mediterranean 38 offers the best of the boating worlds.  NEW custom interior and quality craftsmanship provide passengers with a comfortable and safe escape from the daily grind of modern life. Whether your diving at Catalina or Fishing at the Coronados this Med 38 will take you there safely with confidence and style!!!

The Mediterranean 38 Convertible is as much at home hunting for bill fish as it is cruising with the family or entertaining dockside. Her deep-V hull smooths out the ride on offshore waters and provides the safety, sea keeping ability, and performance demanded by the knowledgeable yachtsman and serious sport fisherman.

Engine, Mechanical and Ships systems

Engine room Manufacturer Provided Description

The engine room of the Mediterranean 38 is a testament to attention to detail. The compartment is a mirror-smooth fiberglass engineered structure that incorporates fiberglass drip pans under the engines, fiberglass battery boxes with lock-down hinged vented covers, engine stringers, elevated floor boards, and a molded-in sump for the bilge pumps. The standard soundproofing is superior, featuring a special mylar-faced barrier material applied in layers to the main salon sole. Special attention has been given to vibration-borne noise dampening. This, coupled with large water-lift mufflers makes the Mediterranean 38 one of the quietest and smoothest vessels of her size afloat. All of the engine room machinery is easily accessible for maintenance while the engines, equipment, wiring, and plumbing installations are among the best in the industry. Comparing this engine room to others will demonstrate just how well engineered and well-built the Mediterranean 38 really is.
