Production

Design


The Columbia 38 is a recreational keelboat, built predominantly of fiberglass, with wood trim. It has a masthead sloop rig, a spooned raked stem, a raised counter transom, an internally mounted spade-type rudder and a fixed modified long keel or optional short keel with a centerboard.
The boat is fitted with a Universal Atomic 4 30 hp (22 kW) gasoline engine for docking and maneuvering. The fuel tank holds 25 U.S. gallons (95 L; 21 imp gal) and the fresh water tank also has a capacity of 25 U.S. gallons (95 L; 21 imp gal).
The galley is located at the foot of the companionway steps on the port side and features a three-burner stove. The head is located forward on the port side, just aft of the bow "V"-berth and includes a privacy door. A hanging locker is provided opposite the head on the starboard side. Additional sleeping accommodation is found in the main cabin and includes the dinette table, which can be dropped to form a double berth, a single settee berth and an aft quarter berth.
