Building on the success of our tried and true Pilot™34 design, Mainship has enhanced the livability and functionality of the design with several key improvements and now introduces the new 389 Pilot. A combination of both customer and dealer feedback was tapped in the development of the new model, so the new 389 Pilotdraws from the popular earlier model by utilizing the same hull, but with a new deck and interior layout.
The salon area features UltraLeather™ seating with two opposing settees, and the cherry plank flooring provides a durable, beautiful sole. The forward berth area has now been transformed to a full stateroom with sliding pocket doors for privacy. The berth has been upsized to a queen as opposed to the prior Pilot’s smaller V-berth, and there is generous storage space in two cedar-lined hanging lockers and centerline berth drawers. Both areas are well-lit and ventilated by the opening, screened portlights.
The new 389 Pilot features a second cabin with an athwartships double berth. Most notably, this guest stateroom features full walk-in headroom at the entry/hanging locker area. As with all Mainship yachts, storage is plentiful in this cabin and the hanging locker is cedar-lined. An opening, screened portlight provides ventilation and lights the area when the standard high intensity reading lights are not in use.
To starboard, the new 35 Pilot features a larger head. In this area, the space has been increased to incorporate a shower compartment enclosed by hinged plexiglass walls. The vanity has a Corian® top.
Mainship’s sundeck galley became a hallmark of the Pilot line with last year’s introduction of the 355 Pilot, and the new 389 Pilotmakes use of this alfresco layout as well. Located on the starboard side of the helm deck, the sundeck galley is fully equipped, sporting a two burner electric stove, microwave oven, AC/DC refrigerator/freezer, stainless steel sink, and extra storage under the Corian® countertop. Portside helm deck seating options include a dinette or an L-shaped lounge.
Power options include a V-drive single Yanmar 380 hp diesel or a twin 220 Yanmar diesel engines.
