The Eagle 38 is a Dutch sailboat that was designed by Hoek Design as a day sailer and first built in 2019.[1] [2]
The design has been built by Leonardo Yachts of Sneek, Netherlands since 2019 and remains in production.[1] [3]

The Eagle 38 is a recreational keelboat, built predominantly of glassfibre, with wood trim. It has a fractional sloop rig, a sharply raked stem, a raised counter transom, an internally mounted spade-type rudder controlled by a wheel and a fixed fin keel with a weighted bulb. It displaces 83780NaN0 and carries 29760NaN0 of ballast.[1]

The head is located just forward of the companionway steps on the port side. The interior is trimmed with matt varnished mahogany, while the headliner is made from synthetic alcantara. Lighting is provided by LEDs.[4]
For single-handed sailing the design is equipped with jib winches that can be reached from the helm station. The mainsail halyard winch is located on the coachhouse roof and the jib is roller furling. The cockpit can accommodate six people.[4]
Optional equipment includes electric jib winches, a powered mainsheet winch and an electric halyard winch.[4]
