2018 Beneteau Oceanis 38.1 – Sea Hunt

(Marketed by Moorings as the “Moorings 38.2” – identical to Oceanis 38.1 two-cabin, two-head layout)

Broker’s Remarks – Sea Hunt

When Beneteau designed the 38.1, they focused on delivering a cruiser that was as smart inside as it is on the water. Sea Hunt features dual helms and a drop-down transom that truly open up the cockpit, creating an outdoor space rarely found on a yacht this size.

Below, the interior feels like a modern studio apartment. The forward cabin’s wide double doors bring in light, improve airflow, and make the entire saloon feel open. The large forward hull windows let you enjoy the views from bed, while the saloon windows are placed to create a deck-saloon feel without adding complexity.

With a huge aft cabin, two heads, and a separate shower, this layout is ideal for couples or hosting guests comfortably. The two-cabin version also allows for a deep cockpit locker, providing ample gear storage. Her cockpit is clean and uncluttered.

Sea Hunt has very low engine hours, no hurricane history, and was lightly used during the pandemic. She’s been well cared for and is truly turnkey. A hurricane season storage spot is already secured at Nanny Cay — just bring your bags and start sailing.
