38' Freedom 38

SUMMARY
After 8 years of living aboard, we have decided to sell Her Diamond, our 1991 Freedom 38. She is a turn-key live-aboard cruiser that will take you anywhere you want to go in comfort and security. She is in excellent condition and has numerous upgrades and comfort oriented live-aboard features. She has Freedoms proven free standing carbon fiber mast and you will never have to replace standing rigging or chain plates. This Gary Mull design is fast and stable. Extras include a Dometic reverse cycle air conditioning system, a 320 watt solar panel, a Brig Hypalon RIB dinghy on Garhauer davits and a NexGen 3.5 KW built in diesel generator. Interior extras include a custom nine-inch innerspring mattress in the v-berth, composting toilet, three burner LPG burner top, Ninja Foodie air fryer/broiler/convection oven and screens on all opening ports, hatches and companion way. See below for more details.
Her Diamond is currently located on a new floating dock in our home port at BURNT STORE MARINA on Charlotte Harbor (near Punta Gorda Florida). RIGHTS TO THE SLIP COME WITH THE BOAT AND THE BUYER WILL HAVE THE FIRST RIGHT OF REFUSAL ON KEEPING IT! Burnt Store Marina currently has a lengthy waiting list.

Her Diamond was featured in a Good Old Boat Magazine review of the Freedom 38 in January/February 2014. She was again featured in an article by the owner describing the refit and conversion from day sailor/vacation cruiser to Liveaboard cruiser in September/October 2019
