This 38 Lives Like a Cruiser and Works Like a Fishing Boat | BRIX 38 Full Tour

How much offshore capability can BRIX Marine fit into a 41-foot aluminum catamaran? Filmed at the 2026 Seattle Boat Show, this YachtLens walkthrough takes us aboard Anēna Marie, a custom BRIX Marine 3814-CTC-WA Offshore RecPro built for serious fishing, protected all-weather operation and extended time away from the dock. Captain Charlie Crane, BRIX Marine’s Sales & Marketing Director, walks us through the owner-selected layout, twin Yamaha XTO 450 outboards, extended fishing deck, dual fish lockers, aft control station, FCI watermaker, diesel generator, Garmin electronics, roof-mounted tender system and full walk-around pilothouse. Anēna Marie begins with a 38-foot hull and adds BRIX Marine’s Offshore extension, bringing her overall length to approximately 41 feet. The extension creates roughly 2½ additional feet of usable aft fishing deck while retaining a 14-foot beam and full walk-around access. Inside, this owner chose one large forward sleeping area rather than the divided cuddy arrangement found on some other BRIX 3814 builds. The main-cabin settee converts into another adult berth, while the full galley, enclosed head, heating, defrost system and extensive storage support multi-day operation. The 2026 build also introduces flush bonded windows, a full-height glass aft door, a large starboard pilothouse door and an improved deck-drainage system that discharges beneath the boat rather than onto the aft deck.
