The Admiral 38 catamaran is designed by Angelo Lavranos whose trademark sleek lines and performance shine true to his motto of “Space, Pace and Grace”. Apart from sailing beautifully, this Admiral 38 has an incredible feeling of space. The roomy, open galley-up is brilliantly laid out and rivals that of a much larger catamaran. Everywhere are handy lockers. With the beautiful joinery work and wood accents there is an attractive feel of high-end design with a comfortable and functional homeliness.

The Admiral 38 came in owner and charter versions. The owner version accommodates 3 double bedrooms, 2 large bathrooms, an 8 seat dining table in the saloon with additional extensive entertainment areas on aft and fore decks. The galley is “galley up” with oven, large deep freeze, refrigerator etc. The spacious elegant saloon with 6 ft 4 inches headroom.′ It’s 23′ beam creates stability and space equal to or superior to many 40′ Cats. The charter version has 4 bedrooms, 2 heads.

The Admiral build quality is workman like and have competent joinery work, built sturdy and nice (polyurethane paint on inside instead of veneer ). It is one of those catamarans where they extended the transom on later models so they could sell it at a higher price. These boats are one of the best boats for the money, a great bargain without sacrificing quality and make great live-aboards. Consider that the bridgedeck clearance is high enough that it will suffice and isn’t a draw back. As they were often sailed on the 7,000 mile delivery from South Africa to the Caribbean, you KNOW these are fully blue water capable!
