Description

2006 Mustang 3800 Sports Cruiser – Hardtop | Volvo Penta IPS | Generator & Air Conditioning
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. For more information please contact Jenna Vincent at 01202 916 424 or email (e-mail in contact data)
