Salona 380 Buyer's Guide
Shopping the used Salona 380s means engaging a 2016 Cossutti-designed Croatian performance cruiser that still reads as contemporary on the brokerage scene. The boat’s documented layout choices and known ergonomic quirks matter more than any market statistic, and the usual French, Croatian, and Finnish markets are where these yachts typically turn up.
Layouts on the Used Market
The standard used 380 presents a large double quarterberth to port and a starboard head with a shower stall, an adequate galley, and a tight nav station that still fits a laptop. Some boats will have been specified with the three-stateroom option that loses the separate shower stall, and a further layout drops the shower stall and third cabin entirely. The refrigerator or icebox sits outboard where the hull tapers and volume is limited regardless of layout, so inspect cold-storage practicality against your plans.
Equipment and Common Upgrades
On the used market the 380 commonly carries solar, an inverter, a code zero, spinnaker or asymmetric spinnaker, bow thruster, swim platform, cockpit shower, AIS, chartplotter, life raft, bimini, teak decks, and autopilot, with the Limited Edition package bringing many of these to step-aboard-and-go level from new. Spinnaker halyards were optional per the original specs, so verify they are present if downwind gear is fitted. The Yanmar 29-horsepower diesel and 26-gallon fuel capacity are baseline; 180-gallon water capacity frames tankage expectations.
What to Inspect
The flying bow that lengthens the waterline under sail is a mixed blessing under power, so assess motoring behavior and bow clearance. Reviewers flagged that more non-slip is needed on deck, a traction shortfall worth checking on worn gelcoat. The chart table has no stowage for books, a minor but documented omission; confirm the nav station meets your paper-or-electronic workflow. No structural defects are recorded, and the clear gelcoat beneath the waterline remains a useful inspection window for laminate condition.
Availability and Buyer's Takeaway
These yachts typically appear in France, Croatia, and Finland. For a buyer, the takeaway is straightforward: confirm which of the three interior layouts you are viewing, verify the documented deck-traction and bow-under-power points, and check that commonly fitted equipment (solar, autopilot, AIS, bow thruster) is operational rather than promised.
- Confirm layout: standard quarterberth, three-stateroom (no stall), or no-stall/no-third
- Check deck non-slip and flying-bow behavior under power
- Verify spinnaker halyards if downwind sails are fitted
- Inspect clear gelcoat below waterline for laminate faults
