Description

1974 Giles 38 – Meticulously Maintained Classic Bluewater Cutter. A rare opportunity to own a superb Giles 38 for sale, designed by Laurent Giles and launched in 1982. This elegant long-keel cutter blends timeless lines with proven bluewater performance. Carefully maintained by experienced owners, she stands out as one of the finest examples of her class. Her freshly repainted black GRP hull (2023) and teak-laid decks give her a striking, classic appearance. In addition, the skeg-hung rudder and deep, balanced hull deliver superb handling and control offshore. A reliable 52hp Yanmar 4JH2E diesel engine with only 1,414 hours powers her smoothly at around 7 knots. As a result, she offers quiet, dependable cruising. She has always been winterised and stored ashore under cover, which helps preserve her excellent condition.
