3rd Owner: (1997-1999)Your Sailing Experience:
We have previously sailed in Georgian Bay and the Great Lakes on a Northern 25 and then a Mirage 35. Our most extensive trip was from Georgian Bay through three of the great lakes and the Welland Canal to Lake Ontario.Boat Review:
We have only just bought our boat but did a lot of research prior to the purchase. We were looking for something other than a production boat that was well built, roomy, sailed well but could hold its own in heavy weather. I think that is what we found with the E38. So far we are very impressed with how it sails. We were also surprised at how easily it handled when backing up. The quality of the workmanship is evident inside and out (enhanced by being well-maintained over the years), great ventilation with 15 opening ports and 6 hatches and conveniences throughout. We have the aft cockpit model which has nice lines in the water.
