combines a flexible deck layout with comfortable accommodation for short family cruises.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Measuring 11.95 metres long and 3.75 metres wide, this 38-foot rigid inflatable boat offers twin outboard engines ranging from 300 to 400 hp each.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The walkthrough by the Sea Team reveals a spacious aft cockpit with an electrically adjustable table that converts into a sunbed or disappears into the deck.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">There is also a large stern garage, generous storage and a configurable outdoor galley.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Forward, the T-top protects the helm, while wide walkways provide easy access to the cushioned bow lounge.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Below deck, the Maxline 38 features a forward double berth, an additional aft sleeping area and a separate bathroom with shower.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Designed for couples and families, this RIB combines practical cruising features with adaptable outdoor living spaces, according to the reviewer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The Editor&#8217;s View<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This walkthrough was filmed by The Sea Team, a team known for its thorough and detailed RIB reviews.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Their sea trials are equally comprehensive, offering valuable insights into each boat&#8217;s performance, handling and features.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">That&#8217;s exactly why I enjoy sharing <a href=\"https:\/\/ribsonly.com\/2\/category\/the-sea-team\/\">their videos here<\/a> on RIBsONLY.com.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr
