The Baltic 38 DP represents a pivotal era for the Finnish shipyard, marking a transition from the design influence of C&C Design to the performance-oriented philosophy of Doug Peterson. Introduced in 1982 and produced until 1989, the 38 DP was conceived as a high-performance cruiser-racer that could excel under the IOR (International Offshore Rule) while maintaining the luxury and offshore durability expected of a Baltic. With 55 hulls launched, the model became one of the builder's more successful mid-sized production runs, blending a high-ballast ratio with the advanced composite construction techniques for which the Bosund yard is famous. According to the Baltic 38 DP Official Page, the vessel was specifically designed to be easy to handle for a small crew without sacrificing the "thoroughbred" feel of a racing yacht.
