NEW LISTING – 1990 Giles 38 – HARAMBE

Tuesday 28th May 2024

Mark Cameron Yachts are delighted to have been appointed to act in the sale of the 1990 Giles 38 ‘HARAMBE’.

A robust, go-anywhere blue water cruiser, with traditional sweeping lines and a long encapsulated keel the Giles 38 was designed in 1971 by Laurent Giles. Moulded by Blondecell Mouldings the hull and decks were supplied to professional yard and amateurs alike to fit out. The design evolved with a short counter transom to become the Laurent Giles Bowman 40, built between 1972 and 1986.

HARAMBE was fitted out by her original owner over a six year period. The finish is to a standard you would expect from a professional builder. Laid out below decks to accommodate a maximum of seven she has proven to be a reliable and safe ocean cruiser. Her inventory highlights include:
