I thought the same, but if they had a table and chairs, maybe they took them out to keep or to make the salon look larger. But then again, this is southern California so maybe they entertain on the flybridge when they have guests? The salon is totally modified, ceiling to floor and I never saw a 38' in 1977 with this galley configuration. The starboard stern galley was an option in the 42's, The salon dash and electrical panel are total upgrades, electronic shift and throttles, etc.
The flybridge is also totally modified, the flybridge enclosure was extended and canvas enclosure added, the side seating, helm seat, controls, electrical breaker panel, console gauges and panel all upgrades.
The forward and aft cabins look very stock with the exception of aluminum frame windows in the aft cabin.
I would love to see the 210 Cummings engine installation. 420 hp vrs 370 hp with the Perkins probably helped it get up a little quicker. Somebody dumped a whole lot of money into this boat!!!
