Description
This 38' Shelter Island Runabout has been exceptionally maintained and thoughtfully upgraded throughout its life. A true performance classic, she is powered by twin MerCruiser 600 SCI high-performance engines, delivering exhilarating performance while preserving the timeless character that has made these boats so desirable.
Recent improvements include a major engine exhaust service (2024), exhaust header repairs (2024), replacement of all exterior canvas with premium Stamoid Sand canvas (2022), installation of a Garmin autopilot (2019), repair of the starboard outdrive (2024), and consistent annual brightwork refinishing from 2021 through 2026. The boat has also benefited from professional offseason storage and preventative maintenance throughout her ownership.
Finished with elegant dark green topsides, a tan-painted deck, and matching canvas, Velocity combines classic Downeast styling with modern high-performance power. With comfortable weekend accommodations and exhilarating performance, she is equally at home cruising to a waterfront lunch or making a fast run across open water.
