Designed by Dudley Dix and constructed by Cantiere Alto Adriatico in 2010, this unique Pilot yacht Dix 38 is built with a rugged aluminum hull for enhanced durability and safety. This used boat is distinguished by its practical dual-helm configuration, providing a traditional external cockpit position alongside an internal steering station. This internal helm offers 180-degree visibility, allowing the crew to navigate in total comfort during inclement weather conditions.
The vessel is well-equipped for extended voyaging with a 40 HP engine, a 16-meter aluminum mast, and a comprehensive sail inventory including a 67 sqm mainsail and genoa. The interior layout is designed for versatility, featuring three cabins—a master forward, one beneath the dinette, and one aft with two separate berths—plus additional sleeping space in the dinette. The living area is finished with fine woodwork and includes a functional kitchen equipped with a gas stove, oven, refrigerator, and a dedicated head with a shower.
Technically proficient, the boat includes an extensive navigation suite. The cockpit is outfitted with an autopilot, depth sounder, wind indicator, and compass, while the interior chart table area is equipped with a radar screen and VHF radio. Power management is handled by a 220V system with a galvanic transformer and a robust 12V bank consisting of 120Ah starting and 300Ah service batteries. An electric Lofran 1500W windlass with a 15kg Rocna anchor ensures reliable anchoring performance.
This Cantiere Alto Adriatico model boasts a CE category rating for high seas, with a displacement of approximately 9000 kg and a draft of 1.75 meters. It remains in excellent condition with no record of accidents or major damage. The price for this vessel has been recently reduced, offering a compelling opportunity for those seeking a proven, aluminum-built yacht capable of handling diverse marine environments.
