Hunter 38

The Hunter 38 is an American sailboat that was designed by Glenn Henderson as a cruiser and first built in 2004. The Hunter 38 design post-dates the 1999 Hunter 380, which is a designation sequence anomaly. The Hunter 38 was replaced in production by the Hunter 39.

The Hunter 38 is a recreational keelboat, built predominantly of fiberglass. It has a fractional sloop B&R rig, a nearly plumb stem, a walk-through reverse transom with a swimming platform and folding ladder, an internally mounted spade-type rudder controlled by a folding wheel and a fixed fin keel or optional wing keel. The boat is fitted with a Japanese Yanmar diesel engine of 29 hp (22 kW), with a 40 hp (30 kW) motor optional. The fuel tank holds 35 U.S. gallons (130 L; 29 imp gal) and the fresh water tank has a capacity of 75 U.S. gallons (280 L; 62 imp gal). The cabin headroom is 78 in (198 cm).
