Hi, I'm upgrading and in the market for a 38

Ready to run boat or hull without power, just let me know

If you can find an AVS I would get one. I looked for a few years for a 36'+ stepped bottom bare hull. I'd probably still be looking for one if I hadn't got the deal I got on my 37'AT hull. It is a straight bottom and runs pretty good, but it's not a stepped hull.

I'm amazed no one has ordered a step bottom 38 with modern materials, technics and interior with the classic flat deck. I think you should just build one on spec Dan so we can drool over it. Then hopefully someone keeps it nice so I can buy it in 25 years. How would that step bottom compare to newer offerings in speed, handling etc?
