Prima 38
951 / 7320 - score 26%
The Prima 38 is a 38.06ft fractional sloop designed by Stephen Jones and built in fiberglass by Seaquest Yachts since 1998.
25 units have been built.
The Prima 38 is a light sailboat which is a very high performer. It is very stable / stiff and has a low righting capability if capsized. It is best suited as a fast cruiser. The fuel capacity is originally very small. There is a short water supply range.
Despite its low score, this boat is ranked in the top quarter. It seems difficult to do much better. It is one of the best possible tradeoffs for this request.
