The 1978 Down East 38 is a robust, long-keeled, wheel-steered staysail schooner designed for versatility and adventure. With its two masts-an aluminum foremast deck-mounted and an aft mast keel-stepped-this boat is set up for both ocean crossings and canal cruising, thanks to its shallow 1.5-meter draft. The boat is crafted from fiberglass with a teak deck and spacious aft cockpit, offering both strength and elegance. Equipped with modern conveniences like a watermaker, autopilot, and wind instruments, the Down East 38 is designed for extended voyages. Its rigging system, featuring staysails on booms controlled from the cockpit, a furling Yankee jib, and a traveler for the main boom, provides excellent sail management, while the 402-hour Yanmar 3JH5E engine ensures reliable power when needed. Inside, the teak interior offers accommodation for up to six people, though it is more comfortable for a crew of four. The saloon is airy and bright, with four large windows and a table that can seat up to eight. The forward cabin features a double vee berth, with a generous single cabin aft and additional sleeping spaces in the saloon. There's full-standing headroom throughout, with 1.9 meters in the front cabin and 2.1 meters in the saloon. The yacht also boasts practical amenities like a gas cooker, large fridges, a sea toilet, and a shower. On deck, stainless steel davits hold solar panels, while the electric anchor windlass, bow thruster, and almost new dinghy with a Yamaha outboard enhance its functionality.

La Maruzza sta piano piano crescendo, e da un sogno personale sta diventando un piccolo punto di riferimento per molti. Quindi ho deciso di cambiare ancora una volta percorso di vita e di lasciare progressivamente il mio lavoro di filmmaker televisivo per dedicarmi solo al canale Youtube "Gli Orizzonti della Maruzza". Per farlo però ho bisogno di tutto il vostro supporto. Un immenso aiuto arriva dalle vostre iscrizioni al canale, che sono completamente gratis. Piu della metà di chi mi segue con affetto però non si è ancora iscritto e questo rende la realizzazione di questo progetto più difficile, se non impossibile. Quindi, se seguite le avventure della Maruzza, iscrivetevi ?? non costa assolutamente nulla e ci permetterà di navigare lontano. Qua sotto trovate il link per farlo. https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCmlaGilgY1Pjt9C1P8KweQg?sub_confirmation=1 Grazie davvero! ? #vivereinbarcaavela #vivereinbarca #barcaavela #viaggiopermare #navigareavela #viaggioinafrica #navigazionesicura #partoenontornopiù #mare #avventura #avventurainmare #cambiovita #maruzza #cambiotutto #barchealpa #alpadodi670 #sailaway #cruising

Have you ever wondered how we get the grain pattern on our bulkheads to match the doors? It's easy really, our doors are cut out from the bulkheads. Our bulkheads are laminated in place, they are made of two, 15mm thick marine grade plywood panels bonded together, there is also 0.9-1.2mm thick Sapele mahogany veneer on each side. This is the wood you see once the bulkhead is finished and we like it to match the door, perfectly. Before the bulkhead can be fitted, if there is a doorway, it needs to be added. This poses a few problems. Because every boat is individually built, one boat differs from the next so each yacht uses wood from the same tree, and this keeps the colour and grain pattern consistent throughout, but cutting out a door from a bulkhead would cause the bulkhead to flex. Even at over 30mm (1 1/4 in) thick a little flex could cause a problem and make it difficult to close a door once it's installed. For this reason, we cut out the door, add the laminated Sapele mahogany frame to the bulkhead and 6mm of solid Sapele mahogany around the door and then fit the door into the bulkhead and secure the two together. Only then do we fit the bulkhead into position on the yacht. Once the bulkhead is securely laminated in place, the doors are removed and labelled before varnishing. The doors and the bulkheads are varnished separately. The bulkheads remain unvarnished to allow the GRP laminate and glues that attach the bulkhead to the hull to bond fully with the wood. Once the bulkheads are laminated in place, then they can be varnished, by hand and brush to give a thick, hard-wearing finish. #wearesirius #SiriusWerft #Sirius #siriusyachts #Yacht #Yachting #Sailing #Sailboat #Decksaloon #decksalon #BluewaterCruiser #OffshoreCruiser #LiftingKeel #Twinkeel #BilgeKeel #Handbuilt #Sailingyacht #Sailingboat #BlueWaterSailing #GoAnywhereCruiser #Swingkeel #OceanSailing #Circumnavigation #DreamYacht #Segeln #SailingLife #SailingLifeStyle #LiveABoard #SailingInstagram #YachtingWorld
