Helmsman Trawlers 38E Pilothouse 2026

Helmsman Trawlers are renowned for their robust construction, exceptional craftsmanship, and high-quality materials, all complemented by modern, wide-beam hull designs. The Helmsman 38 Pilothouse is an innovative fast trawler featuring a spacious 'low rise' pilothouse that seamlessly connects to the salon, avoiding the separation found in many other pilothouse designs. The full-beam main salon is both expansive and inviting, with a rich nautical atmosphere. A rare addition for a vessel of this size is the second day head, a highly practical feature for accommodating guests. The dinette and day head can be enclosed to create a private suite for visitors, with an option for a layout that includes a dedicated second stateroom. Safety and practicality are enhanced by a commanding flybridge, a high bow, a covered aft deck, deep side-deck footwells, and wide access stairs to the flybridge, ensuring comfort in all weather conditions. The updated Helmsman 38 Pilothouse, now known as the 38E Pilothouse, boasts several modifications including an extended cockpit cover, improved rain drip control around the pilothouse roof, and a refined forward window shape that elevates the vessel's overall appearance. The 38E also features enhanced engine noise control thanks to additional soundproofing materials integrated into its multi-layered interior floors. The quality of construction is evident through thick deck sections, a durable gel coat, robust rails, premium hardware, abundant interior teak, and exceptional fit and finish. Designed for those seeking comfortable and economical cruising, the Helmsman 38 Pilothouse provides the spaciousness of a larger vessel while easily fitting into a 40' slip, all wrapped in beautifully crafted hardwood joinery and fine materials. Standard propulsion includes a Cummins QSB 6.7-liter 380 hp electronically-controlled common rail engine, with options available for higher horsepower ratings (up to 550 hp) and various engine brands. The vessel's minimal exterior maintenance and reliable, economical propulsion systems enable owners to focus more on cruising. A broad range of customization options and configurations are available, and we would love to discuss your ideas with you! The base price includes shipping, delivery, commissioning, and training in Seattle or Charleston, with taxes and duties not included. Adjustments to shipping prices may apply for other destinations or countries. Sistership photos are available.
