The Moorings 38 is a performanceoriented cruising yacht that occupies a unique historical position in the evolution of production sailboats. Built by Beneteau between 1990 and 1992, the model was commissioned specifically for The Moorings’ charter fleet and was designed by the acclaimed naval architect Jean Berret in collaboration with interior designer Philippe Starck. Unlike many charterspecific vessels that prioritize volume over speed, the Moorings 38 utilized the highperformance hull of the Beneteau First 38s5, blending a racing pedigree with a threecabin layout optimized for island hopping. It remains a soughtafter model on the secondary market for sailors who desire the nimble handling of the Beneteau "First" series but require the utilitarian cabin count found in the "Oceanis" line.
