1989 Freedom

Freedom Yachts have become famous for their unstayed carbon fiber masts and self tending sails that make short handed sailing a breeze. As Ferenc Mate states in The World's Best Sailboats, "This rig has brought more ease and fun back into sailing than nearly any other achievement to date."

"Deja Vu" is far and above the nicest Freedom 38 on the market! In addition to the high quality fit and finish typical of all Freedom yachts, she has numerous extras including reverse cycle heat/AC, Fisher Panda genset, shoal draft keel, SSB, davits, and a brand new headliner. If this isn't enough, consider the 1998 Yanmar with only 300 hours.

If you're looking for a very comfortable, great sailing, easily single-handed yacht in top condition, Deja Vu is definitely worth your consideration. She won't last long, so contact your broker or give us a call today!

Accomodations
Deja Vu has a very comfortable interior with large galley, large head, and 2 private sleeping cabins. The table folds up on the port bulkhead which opens the boat up a lot, and provides a secure storage locker behind the folded table. Interior joinery is exceptionally done in oiled teak with ash staving in the sleeping cabins. This staving brightens the cabins up and provides a very warm and comfortable feel. The teak and holly sole has been recently revarnished and the headliner is brand new. This broker inspected the boat in the pouring rain and could not find any interior leaks... a rare find!

Galley
The large galley is to port at the base of the companionway and is sure to please the seagoing cook! Double forward facing SS sinks, a gimballed propane stove/oven, a large fridge, and a built-in microwave provide the ingredients for a tasty meal. The openness of the galley in relation to the rest of the interior will allow the cook to socialize with the rest of the crew... always an important factor.
