## Brief Summary

Founded on a legacy of advanced marine engineering, MJM Yachts builds high-performance, epoxy-composite express yachts at their state-of-the-art facility in North Carolina. Famous for lightweight C5® vacuum-infused hulls and exceptional fuel efficiency, MJM engineered the 38V as the flagship of its new V-Series. The 38V is purpose-built as an open-air luxury day yacht designed to blend high-speed coastal cruising with all-weather versatility—allowing families and couples to entertain comfortably, escape afternoon chop, and extend their boating season.

The main deck prioritizes seamless connection, featuring expansive forward lounge seating, an extended aft cockpit, a hullside boarding door, and an entertaining bar with a stone countertop, drawer refrigerator, and available wine chiller. The protected pilothouse boasts electric opening windshields and sliding side glass for instant multi-season climate transition. Below deck, thoughtful accommodations expand day-use convenience, including a private starboard cuddy cabin for changing or resting, an enclosed head with a stone vanity and hot water shower, and ample dry storage. Notable options include twin Mercury V10 425 HP outboards, a Seakeeper 3 gyroscopic stabilizer, and two tailored interior design directions (Crème or Pebble) featuring hand-selected ebony wood accents.

**KEY FEATURES:**

- **All-Weather Open Pilothouse**: Electrically opening forward windshields and sliding glass offer complete weather protection when needed or an open-air breeze on warm days.
- **Integrated Social &amp; Cooking Zones**: Multi-zone seating spanning bow to stern includes an outdoor galley equipped with a stone countertop, drawer refrigerator, and sink.
- **Functional Below-Deck Amenities**: Features a private enclosed head with a vanity shower, plus a starboard private cuddy cabin for resting, changing, or secure storage.
- **Responsive Offshore Hull**: Advanced vacuum-infused epoxy composite construction delivers a dry, smooth ride with top speeds exceeding 50 mph and confident low-speed planing.
- **Stress-Free Docking &amp; Control**: Equipped with Mercury Joystick Piloting, Skyhook virtual anchoring, and integrated Garmin ultrawide displays for intuitive, low-stress maneuvering.
