1984 Baltic 38DP

New Haven is a very well maintained 1984 Baltic 38 DP. The 38DP has a reputation as one of the great Baltic builds as Doug Peterson was in his prime when he designed her.  Boats of this era are great upwind and make for fast offshore sailors or just sailing anywhere. A well maintained Baltic is worth the money when compared to ones that aren’t. New Haven has had major upgrades for offshore cruising and racing.

From 2020 she has had new rod rigging, full mast inspection, wire backstay, solent stay and forestay, new electronics with originals as backups, new fridge and freezer with separate compressors, efoy 12v charging along with 3 solar panels ( with new spare panels) Lithium batteries for house being replaced 7/24. Wiring has been updated for a lot of the systems. Carbon race sails and full cruising sails, wind vane plus autopilot and the list goes on.  If you haven’t sailed this vintage of boat upwind in a chop and pressure you have missed one of life’s great joys. These boats are so well balanced they are a thrill to drive. If you are looking for a high quality, well maintained, capable sailing yacht under 40’ this is a must see. Offshore or local this is truly a wonderful boat to do either or both!
