2023 Cruisers Yachts 38 GLS OB

Overview 

The signature starboard Beach Door folds down electronically to convert into a full water-level platform, setting the 38 GLS apart from every direct competitor.

The cockpit is built for entertaining: U-shaped aft lounge that converts to a sun pad, Corian wet bar with Isotherm refrigerator, electric grill, ice maker below the helm seat, retractable dining table seating six, Mocha SeaDek decking throughout, and a power SureShade foredeck canopy. Helm features dual Simrad 12-inch MFDs with radar, Mercury VesselView, and a Fusion Apollo stereo with lighted speakers. Bow lounge converts to a full sun pad with filler cushion. Below, Ebony Oak cabinetry, a mid-berth, a Dometic head with shower, and a 28-inch salon TV.

Annual services completed across all three Mercury outboards and the generator.

Cockpit and Entertainment Deck

The cockpit of the 38 GLS is designed as a large open entertaining space with approximately 120 square feet dedicated to relaxation and social gatherings.

A spacious U-shaped aft lounge finished in Ochre Sunbrella marine upholstery provides seating for multiple guests and converts into a large sun pad. The seating layout offers excellent views of the water and easy access to the swim platform.

The starboard side Beach Door folds down electronically to create a beach style platform that connects the cockpit with the swim platform. When deployed, the door significantly expands the entertainment area and creates an ideal location for swimming, boarding, or relaxing at anchor. Safety systems prevent operation while the engines are running. 

Opposite the seating area is a full cockpit wet bar featuring a Corian countertop, sink, refrigerator, and dedicated storage. A black electric cockpit grill and ice maker located below the helm seat add convenience when entertaining guests.

A retractable cockpit table rises from the centerline and comfortably seats six for outdoor dining. Mocha colored SeaDek decking runs throughout the cockpit and swim platform, providing both style and secure footing.
