Blackfin 38 Convertible 1989

Introducing a formidable fishing vessel designed for the dedicated angler. The Blackfin 38 Convertible, an elegant yacht that was once the epitome of luxury for discerning buyers, evolved from its predecessor, the Blackfin 36 Convertible, which debuted in 1986. By 1988, this model was lengthened to 38 feet, enhancing its impressive profile and performance. Setting a benchmark for flybridge fishing boats under 40 feet, this yacht boasts a spacious cockpit and a thoughtfully designed flybridge that offers excellent visibility for the captain and ample seating for guests. Inside, you'll find a generous salon and an upward galley, alongside two comfortable staterooms: the master berth in the bow features a pedestal bed, while the port-side stateroom is fitted with twin bunks, all finished in elegant teak. The bridge is equipped for an array of advanced electronics. Powered by twin QSM11 Cummins diesel engines, these robust 10.8-liter inline-six engines are celebrated for their outstanding power-to-weight ratio, quiet operation, and fuel efficiency. With features like replaceable wet cylinder liners, these engines are built to last, with some commercial users achieving over 50,000 hours before major overhauls. Recent upgrades include a repower in 2014 with Cummins QSM11 engines (currently under 2000 hours), new shafts and props, and the conversion to digital control levers. A new 8kw generator has also been installed in 2025 and has only been used once. Electronics include a FLIR camera, Raymarine ST 70 autopilot, Standard Horizon Quantum Gx233OS VHF, VLH3000 hailer, ACR RCL100 searchlight, three Raymarine displays, and one Garmin for GPS and chartplotting, complemented by radar, a FLIR infrared camera, and a depth sounder. Additional features comprise a single side-band radio and an Azimuth 1000 digital compass, along with a closed-circuit camera system. For fishing enthusiasts, this yacht is equipped with two aluminum Rupp outriggers, a cockpit fighting chair, a live bait well with a built-in drain, a fish box with a chiller plate, multiple rod holders, and tackle storage, plus ice storage boxes with chillers and drains. Raw and fresh water washdown systems complete the offering. In summary, this Blackfin 38 Convertible is a well-equipped fishing machine, featuring a new generator and two of the best diesel engines available for commercial use.
