Used Yankee 38 Sailboats for Sale

The Yankee 38 stands as a testament to a bygone era of American yacht building, where uncompromising quality and robust construction were paramount. Conceived by the renowned naval architecture firm Sparkman & Stephens and meticulously built by Yankee Yachts Inc. between 1972 and 1975, this 38-foot monohull was designed as a versatile racer-cruiser. Its lineage traces back to the competitive world of IOR One Ton racing, specifically deriving from the 1971 racing yacht 'Lightnin'', cementing its reputation as a capable performer with comfortable offshore cruising capabilities. Yankee Yachts, though operational for a relatively short decade, left an indelible mark on the sailing community for its dedication to superior craftsmanship, a characteristic clearly embodied by the Yankee 38.
