M/Y FX 38 Yacht

FX 38 is a 38.20 m motor yacht for 10 guests in 5 cabins, offering luxury motor yacht charter in Turkey from Marmaris with a 20-knot cruise and seven crew. Built by FX Yachts with interiors styled by Scaro Design, she combines a composite planing hull with twin MTU engines and a top speed of 24 knots, so longer passages between bays and harbours take hours rather than days, leaving more time at anchor. Her standout space is the flybridge sun deck, generous enough for a DJ set or a private party at sea, while a deck Jacuzzi, exterior bar and sunpads make every anchorage feel like a private terrace. A full-beam master suite with its own office suits guests who need to stay connected, and a well-stocked toy locker keeps families and groups of friends busy between swims.

Life on board runs to the rhythm you set. Mornings can start with a fast run to a quiet bay in the Gulf of Hisarönü, afternoons with the Seabob or Liftfoil, and evenings with dinner on deck. Air conditioning runs around the clock, and all five cabins have their own en-suite bathroom, satellite TV and music system. Seven professional crew live in four separate crew cabins, which keeps the guest areas private and the service discreet throughout the charter.

Life Aboard M/Y FX 38

FX 38 is laid out for spending long days outside. The flybridge is the heart of the yacht: sunpads for lazy afternoons, room to gather the whole party at sunset, and enough space to turn into a dance floor when the occasion calls for it. Lower down, the exterior bar and the deck Jacuzzi sit close to the water, with a deck shower and a side boarding ladder for easy swims straight from the yacht. Inside, the saloon has its own music system and satellite TV, and Wi-Fi is available within the charter area. The fully equipped galley has an ice machine, coffee machine and wine cooler, and the crew handle daily housekeeping.

Performance and Build

Her V-shaped planing hull is built in glass-reinforced epoxy sandwich composite and complies with RINA and MCA standards. Two MTU 16V2000M92 engines of 2,600 HP each give a cruising speed of 20 knots, a maximum of 24 knots and a range of up to 1,250 nautical miles. She has an 8.10 m beam and displaces around 165 tons. Two Kilopak 80 kW generators, a 70 HP bow thruster and two watermakers producing 700 litres an hour each keep her self-sufficient on longer passages and at anchor.

Cabins and Accommodation

Ten guests share five en-suite cabins, each with a shower unit, household-type toilet, satellite TV and music system. The mix of king, queen and twin beds works equally well for couples, families with older children and groups of friends.

• Full-beam master suite: king-size bed, a private office and a spacious en-suite bathroom.
• Two VIP cabins: queen-size beds, individual climate control and en-suite facilities.
• Two twin staterooms: two single beds each, ideal for children, siblings or friends travelling together.

Crew and Service

A crew of seven, led by the captain and with a dedicated chef and deckhands, looks after navigation, meals, water sports and housekeeping. The crew are accommodated in four separate crew cabins, so service stays attentive without ever feeling intrusive.

Water Toys and Leisure

A 5.05 m Castoldi tender with a 110 HP engine handles shore runs and towing, and the line-up continues with:

• F5S Seabob and Liftfoil
• Water skis, kneeboard and wakeboard
• Two stand-up paddleboards and two inflatable canoes
• Jobe inflatable water toys for younger guests

Who Is FX 38 Ideal For?

Private and Executive Charters

The full-beam master with its own office, Wi-Fi within the charter area and a discreet crew of seven make FX 38 a natural fit for guests who need privacy and a quiet place to work between swims. Planners arranging a charter for a principal will find our guide for executive assistants a useful starting point.

Friends’ Getaways and Celebrations

A flybridge that hosts DJ sets and live music, an exterior bar and a deck Jacuzzi turn milestone birthdays, pre-wedding trips and reunions into a week to remember.

Families and Multi-Generation Groups

Twin cabins for the children, a tender for easy beach landings and inflatable toys alongside the Seabob mean every generation has something to do, while round-the-clock air conditioning keeps everyone comfortable at night.

Corporate Retreats and Team Charters

For a small leadership team or incentive group of up to ten, the flybridge works as an open-air venue, the master office as a meeting space, and the speed of the yacht keeps transfers between stops short.
