The Pardo 38 is a day boat done properly, modern, comfortable and thoughtfully laid out for exactly the kind of day people actually want. Two generous sunbathing areas sit at the bow and stern, and the aft sunbed transforms neatly into a dining table, so six to eight guests can share a relaxed meal without ever leaving the deck.
Comfort runs through the detail. Shaded areas at both ends keep the sun manageable through the day, a high-quality Fusion sound system sets the mood, and a fully equipped bathroom, air conditioning and an outdoor shower mean nothing feels like a compromise. For time in the water, a paddleboard and snorkelling gear for six are aboard, ready whenever the mood takes hold.
Delivered in 2023 and based around Saint-Tropez, she is ideal for families and small groups who want a relaxed, comfortable day rather than anything complicated. Cruise out at an easy pace, anchor in a sheltered bay, and let the day unfold between swims and long lunches. At around twenty-two knots she is unhurried by design, which rather suits the setting.
She suits a family or a couple who value comfort and simplicity, and who would happily spend a whole day aboard without needing anywhere particular to be.
Bring the children, the paddleboard and a good appetite. She takes care of the rest.
