The 1993 Young Brothers 38 "Salty Dog" is a proven offshore performer that masterfully blends classic Downeast styling with serious fishability and modern upgrades throughout. Built on the legendary Young Brothers hull — renowned for its seakeeping ability, durability, and timeless design — this 38-footer is turnkey and ready for her next owner.
Powered by a dependable 550HP Detroit Diesel 6V92 with 2,200 hours since overhaul, the Salty Dog cruises comfortably at 18 knots and reaches a top speed of 21 knots, inspiring confidence in a wide range of offshore conditions. The cockpit is loaded with tournament-ready features including a Jack Hopewell tuna tower with steering and throttle controls, Lee outriggers, a custom aft livewell with LED lighting, tuna door, and under-gunnel rod storage — everything a serious angler could ask for. Significant recent investments include new Alexseal topside paint, all new pilothouse windows, new Glendenning controls, and all new antennas, all completed in 2024.
Below deck, the open salon and V-berth layout offers comfortable accommodations for overnight trips and extended canyon runs, highlighted by teak accents throughout, an updated enclosed head, air conditioning, a fully equipped galley, and modern dual Raymarine Axiom Pro 12" multifunction displays at the helm. Vessels of this caliber, pedigree, and condition rarely come to market — the Salty Dog is ready to fish, cruise, and explore.
