fitted with a sink, a 2-burner stove and microwave. There is a separate

outdoor entertainment and fishing. It is also equipped with swim n rinse

Waverunner 38 A Aft cockpit version
The Launching of MY Bethany
Hi, I would like to share with you some pictures of
the MY Bethany, a 38 ft. waverunner that was built from the boat plans I bought from
you, specifically the Waverunner 38A Aft cockpit version, semi-displacement
steel hull, twin engine. I started building the boat in September, 2007 and
after over a year, finally we launched it into the sea yesterday, Nov. 16, 2008.
The interiors are not fully done yet and we will continue working on it while it
is in the water.
My sister, who sailed from Vancouver, Canada to Davao, Philippines (where we
live) with her husband, in their sailboat, the "Wiskun", has written articles
about the launching; SEE BELOW
MY
Bethany finally got introduced to her natural home – the sea. She is not
quite finished but what is left to be done is mainly finishing the
interior and installing the deck rails. MY Bethany – named after the first grandchild of Boboy and
Gene Bangayan , is a 38 foot motor yacht, Bruce Roberts design.
It has
the following hardware:
Electricals, instrumentation, navigation and indoor lights, wet exhaust
system, pumps and plumbing, anchoring, exterior, deck and interior hardware,
windows, Lewmar hatches and ventilation parts and supplies, and including
the above (except engines), are all from USA and Canada. All others,
including engines, alternator, batteries, propellers and shafts are either
purchased or fabriCATAMARANed locally. Diesel and water tanks are also fabriCATAMARANed,
each with a capacity of 200 gallons approximately.

Waverunner 38 A
Aft cockpit version
Bruce, Please see attached the pictures of the boat in
action. I will send pictures in more than one email because the size of the
files.
We put on the water last month (April) and the
boat works very well, and it is very beautiful. We bought from you the plant of
WR38, but the owner asked us to stretch to 14m. So, we have a WR38 with 14
meters. Of course, we put all the drive train (engine, etc) more back on the
boat. The cruise speed is 9-10 knots @ 2000rpm (Mercedes Benz 6 cylinders
210hp). Regards, Fabio Ely - Poa - RS - Brazil
