Comfortina 38 was designed without regard to measurement rules, as the yard wanted to build a classic boat with exceptional sailing characteristics. The boat has also become well-known for being very fast and easy to sail, especially during racing. The layout is a classic Swedish design with cabinetry in lacquered teak. Comfortina 38, Amazing Blue, is not just one of the approximately 150 boats built by Comfortbåtar in Arvika. Amazing Blue is actually the very first one, launched by the yard in 1986. What we know is that while some of the first boats were under construction, the yard wanted to quickly launch a boat in the spring of 1986 so they could participate in races and showcase what the Comfortina 38 could achieve. They took part in various races, including Gotland Runt, during 1986 and 1987. This boat is therefore the original plug that the yard made for the first Comfortina 38. The boat features the interior line of the 39 model, along with its deck and cockpit. The rudder is also from the 39 model, and the boat has a wheel instead of a tiller. A nice feature below deck is that the mast comes down through the main bulkhead. This makes the salon feel more spacious, akin to that of a larger boat. A practical detail is that the toilet is positioned on the starboard side instead of directly in front of the entrance to the large storage space aft on starboard side. This makes it much easier to access the stowage area. The rigging also differs. In 2002, the boat received a new mast that is 1.5 meters taller and a new boom that is 20 cm longer. This provides a sail area for the mainsail of 45 square meters compared to 40 square meters for a standard 38. In addition to being sailed by the yard for the first two years, this boat has had at least two previous owners. The current owner purchased her in 2011 and has primarily sailed in the Baltic Sea area with her home port in Kalmar. During these years, the owner has regularly upgraded and renewed equipment onboard. The boat has been stored indoors during winter seasons, contributing to her good condition for her age. For the past three years, she has been stored indoors on land in Bergkvara, half an hour's drive south of Kalmar, where we can show her by appointment.
