Interior Accommodations

The Baltic 38DP interior is a true exercise in use of space. Baltic specialized in creating exceptional cruiser-racers at a time when yachts were expected to do both well. It was accomplished with a combination of advanced (for the time) construction techniques and innovative solutions to allow both the interiors and deck layouts to meet these needs. Below decks, angled bulkheads and other fixed interior components were utilized to maximize space. Above decks, a large bridge deck allowed ease-of-movement and more space for the aft cabin.

Utilizing the International Offshore Rule-induced beam, an aft cabin was created with 5’10” headroom and a centerline double berth. This aft cabin has port and starboard seats and an abundance of storage for clothes and personal effects.  The space around the bed is surprisingly roomy, a result of the engine being given a vee-drive so the transmission could be located under the stairs. There are four opening ports to provide ventilation.

The galley is L-shaped and adjacent to the companionway. Two stainless steel sinks are near centerline. The large, well-insulated stainless-steel lined ice box is cooled by a newer water-cooled refrigeration unit. There is a three-burner ENO propane stove and oven with Marinetics propane solenoid switch. Just aft of the galley is a hanging locker. The hot water tank is located in a separate locker under the companionway and over the engine. Lockers outboard, four drawers and spaces below the sink and oven provide ample storage for coastal cruising.

The head is to starboard, with separate entrances from the aft stateroom and main salon. The toilet discharges to a holding tank and has a Y-valve for overboard disposal where legal. The sink has a foot pump for fresh water and a pullout mixing telephone type faucet for showers.

The navigation station is to starboard immediately forward of the head. This is a spacious navigation center for both the instrumentation and the navigator himself or herself. The Baltic produced AC and DC electrical panel are on the aft wall of the navigation station.

The main salon is enveloped in luxurious teak, with opposite settees and ample storage in lockers and shelves outboard. Headroom is 6’2”, tapering gently to the forward cabin where there’s  5’10”. There is a centerline drop-leaf table with integral storage. It is centered around the keel stepped mast, giving it a firm attachment point while making the mast unobtrusive. With the leaves extended, a crew of six could have a comfortable sit-down dinner. The teak and holly floors were finished in 2021.

The forward cabin is exceptionally comfortable for a yacht of this size. Because the head is aft, there is space for additional storage and ample hanging lockers to port and starboard. There are flip-out reading lights, plus overhead lights, both to port and starboard.

Deck and Hull

Shoshanna has beautiful, well-preserved teak decks newly installed in a 2004 refitting. The bridge deck provides a platform for the traveller and mainsheet winch, with the companionway forward. Halyards and controls are led adjacent to companionway. Seat lockers are surprisingly large considering the space devoted to aft cabin. There is a Navtec hydraulic backstay and boom vang, controllable from the port side of the cockpit.
