The Ocean Alexander 38 is a handsome, trawler-style cruiser made notable in the mid 1980s for her quality construction and traditional, all-teak interior. She rides on a solid fiberglass, semi-displacement hull with hard aft chines and a shallow keel for directional stability. The interior accommodations are typical of most double-cabin trawlers with private staterooms fore and aft and the galley forward in the salon. The aft stateroom is arranged with a centerline queen bed, a cockpit access door (very useful), and a split head with the stall shower to port and the sink and toilet compartment to starboard. A lower helm was standard in the salon, and port and starboard doors provide easy access to the walkaround decks. As it is in most Asian yachts, the teak joinery is very well crafted. Outside, raised bulwarks offer protection for the walkaround decks, and the flybridge has seating for four. There’s space on the aft cabin roof for a dinghy, and a radar mast and swim platform were standard. Unlike many other trawler-style yachts, the Ocean 38 is relatively free of exterior teak trim. Twin 135hp Lehman diesels cruise at 7–8 knots.

A good looking yacht with traditional teak interior, combined classic trawler styling with solid construction, and economical operation. The well-finished interior boasts roomy salon with lower helm, two salon doors, and generous storage. The layout of this boat is complimented by its beautiful finish and quality construction that is expected on all Ocean Alexander Yachts.
