Summary
The Hunter 38 is a performance cruiser that blends a lively Glenn Henderson hull with the comfort and volume that made Hunter a market leader in midsize cruising yachts. A fine entry, near-plumb bow, and fractional rig with a powerful mainsail deliver responsive handling and speed.
Accommodations

Accommodations are built around generous volume and comfort, with 6'6" headroom in a bright main saloon featuring smoothly finished teak joinery, solid wood handrails, low‑maintenance sole, and U‑shaped settees that seat six around a teak table. The L‑shaped galley to starboard offers Corian countertops, dual stainless sinks, a two‑burner stove/oven, optional refrigerator, slide‑out storage, and ample cabinetry plus a microwave niche, while the nav station to port includes a proper chart table and easy access to the electrical panel. Sleeping arrangements center on a remarkably commodious owner’s aft stateroom with a large berth, abundant storage, and seating, complemented by a forward cabin with another large berth and cedar‑lined hanging lockers. A single, well‑designed head serves both cabins and the saloon, divided into two compartments with 6'2" headroom, a practical separate shower and dual access doors that allow simultaneous use without feeling cramped.

Galley

The L-shaped galley is designed for serious cruising, combining secure ergonomics with ample work and storage space. Located to starboard at the foot of the companionway, it features Hunter’s signature 60" x 20" Corian countertop, dual stainless-steel sinks, and a gimbaled two‑burner stove/oven positioned between an optional aft refrigerator and a forward slide‑out storage rack. Outboard lockers provide generous room for dishes and provisions, along with a dedicated microwave niche, while a sturdy stainless grab rail at the front of the galley gives the cook a solid handhold underway. Overall, the layout and equipment make it easy to prepare meals for a crew of six without feeling confined or short on stowage.

Cons

Weight: Being a cruiser with a focus on comfort, the boat is somewhat heavier compared to performance-oriented sailboats, which can affect speed in light wind conditions.

Limited Upwind Performance: While adequate for cruising, the Hunter 38 may not point as high or sail as efficiently upwind as some other boats in its class.

Tank Capacities: Freshwater and fuel tank sizes are modest, which may require more frequent resupply on longer voyages.

Interior Finishes: Although functional and comfortable, some owners feel the interior finish quality is more utilitarian compared to higher-end yachts.
