Overview
About this vessel
This 2006 Mustang 3800 Sports Top is a capable Australian-built offshore cruiser powered by twin Volvo D6-310 engines with IPS400 drives and joystick control, delivering efficient cruising and excellent manoeuvrability. She offers a comfortable cockpit, clear helm, and generous platform. Below deck, 2.1m headroom, a practical galley, and well-designed accommodation make it ideal for extended, year-round cruising.
A standout example of the ever-popular Mustang 3800, this boat is exceptionally well specified and benefits from a rare combination of Volvo Penta IPS drives with joystick control, generator, and air conditioning — making her a highly capable and user-friendly cruiser for UK waters. The IPS system transforms the handling, offering precise low-speed manoeuvrability with fingertip joystick docking, reduced noise and vibration, and improved fuel efficiency compared to conventional shaft or sterndrive setups — ideal for both experienced and less confident helms alike.
On deck, the hardtop configuration provides excellent all-weather protection while maintaining a bright, open cockpit environment. The layout is sociable and practical, with generous seating, a well-appointed helm position, and seamless access to the bathing platform — perfect for entertaining or extended time aboard.
Below decks, the inclusion of a generator and reverse-cycle air conditioning elevates onboard comfort significantly, allowing full independence away from shore power and climate control in all seasons. The spacious interior offers comfortable accommodation for extended cruising, with a well-equipped galley, inviting saloon, and separate heads compartment.
Combining Australian build quality with serious cruising specification, this Mustang 3800 represents a compelling opportunity for buyers seeking ease of handling, genuine comfort, and strong value in a sub-40ft sports cruiser. The Mustang is available to view in Poole.
