Description
The Vancouver 38 Classic was built in 1998 by Northshore. "Guillemette" is build # 1 of 3 of the Vancouver 38C. It features two double cabins with two heads, providing a more spacious feel than the more numerous Pilot saloon version. This model is an improved 36, sharing the same hull as the 38 pilot but with a different deck configuration - a cutter rigged masthead sloop. Many extras include electric winches, bow thruster, and Hydrovane, as well as a conventional Autohelm autopilot. The hull is blue. Designed by Robert B Harris and Andrew Dandridge.
