The 38C is a flybridge boat from American builder Viking Yachts. The 38C is a yacht built from fibreglass, featuring a hull design.

From The Manufacturer

Viking's in-house design team started by giving the 38' plenty of beam: six to ten inches more than comparable yachts. Their plan also called for maximum beam to be carried well forward. After all, the 38' had to provide the generous master stateroom that Viking owners have grown accustomed to.

The 38' also had to offer two other spacious areas- the salon and the cockpit. The salon was made huge by a galley just one step down- handy but unobtrusive (and unavailable on competitors' boats). This yachts' layout also features an exclusive perk for buyers:n a choice of two different arrangements below deck.

Which ever floorplan you select, a yacht is only as good as the hull underneath. Here, the 38' delivers in spades with a technically advanced hull shape, combining a clean-tracking forefoot with a fry ride. Viking's aft-planing fairbody delivers efficient, high speed, while reverse-radiused chines enhance sea-tracking ability.

For rigidity, this yacht's deck and superstructure is all one piece from bow pulpit to cockpit liner. No seams, no creaks, no groans.

The bright head to port has two-way entry, with a private door to the forward master stateroom. This stateroom features a walk-around double bed including Viking's signature teak appointments, rich decor and cedar-lined stowage.

From bow pulpit to transom, the Viking 38' Convertible is proof positive that the measure of a yacht is quality, not size.
