Description
SUMMERPLACE is an exceptionally clean, lightly used, owner-operated cruising sailboat featuring
the highly desirable two-cabin layout and powered by a Yanmar 3JH40 40 HP diesel engine with
only 156 hours.
Equipped with in-mast furling, furling genoa, Code 0 sail, bow thruster, Raymarine
electronics, AIS, radar, Webasto diesel heat, and an expanded freshwater capacity of 87 gallons,
this vessel is ideally suited for coastal cruising, family sailing, weekend adventures, and extended
New England cruising.
The Beneteau Oceanis 38.1 is recognized for combining sailing performance, ease of handling, and
spacious accommodations in a manageable cruising package. Twin rudders, twin helms, a wide
beam, and an efficient hull shape provide excellent control under sail while creating an
exceptionally large cockpit and comfortable interior.
This vessel features the sought-after side galley arrangement with a large U-shaped settee,
movable storage stools, navigation station, two private staterooms, a separate shower
compartment, and abundant natural light. The cockpit is equally impressive with premium canvas
protection, generous seating, and a fold-down transom that converts into a full-width swim platform
Professionally maintained and used primarily for day sailing around Boston Harbor,
SUMMERPLACE presents in near-new condition and represents a rare opportunity to purchase a
late-model Oceanis 38.1 that is fully equipped and ready for immediate delivery

If it has anything to do with sailing, Mark has probably done it. He has 60-years worth of experience in ocean racing and cruising including Bermuda races, One Design races, Block Island race weeks, a trans-Atlantic cruise to Gibraltar, and countless deliveries of sail and powerboats in the northeast and mid-Atlantic.
Mark has always worked in the marine field. Right out of high school he found work in the mold room at Pearson Yachts laminating fiberglass hulls and taught sailing summers. Armed with a BA in Philosophy, Mark returned to manufacturing working for Tillotson-Pearson Yachts, Freedom Yachts and Legacy Powerboats, and finally Pearson Composites and True North and Alerion Express Yachts as a builder, customer service and quality control manager, and ultimately factory direct sales. Mark joined Cape Yachts in 2008.
Mark’s experience has made him a great listener, an excellent communicator, and a client advocate. His service and boatbuilding background gives him a unique understanding of how boats are put together. Mark is not looking for the quick sale, but rather the long-term relationships that have also helped him establish many friendships along the way.
Married for 40 years, Mark has two daughters and lives in Dartmouth, Massachusetts. If you think his passion for boating is confined to his working hours, guess again. He builds boats at home including canoes, kayaks, rowing shells, and standup paddleboards. If you are seeking an experienced yachting professional with energy, enthusiasm, and dedication to your boating needs, Mark is the one to call.
