As you step aboard and into the cockpit, you can see 4 locking compartments integrated in to the cockpit seating.
Center aft of the cockpit is a removable cover to access the lazerrette allowing access to storage and steering components. The tiller is in easy reach and this space offers plenty of room to lounge or work.
You enter the pilothouse via a nice "Dutch" companionway door, off center to starboard. Within the pilothouse you'll find a lot of space to relax and take in the views. There is over 6'3" of overhead space throughout the interior.
Entering the companionway door, and to port as you step down, you'll find nicely upholstered cushions on the booth style settee. The sole of the pilothouse is removable and allows great access to the engine compartment for servicing. A cabinet below the aft booth seat houses a 50 litre - 12v cooler.
The pilot house also doubles as a well appointed helm station. All controls for navigation and systems monitoring are here.
Moving forward from the helm station is a low down step to the galley. This is a large workspace with fold up cutting board and two large basins that are deep and easy to clean. There is a gimbaling 2 burner stovetop with oven located to starboard as you descend from the pilothouse.
A seperate quarter berth is also placed opposite the galley. It is perfectly placed mid-ship and will offer a comfortable guest berth while underway or at anchor.
The head is located to port and is forward of the enclosed quarter berth. There you will find an electric macerating head with shower.
Moving forward of the head is the V berth. Within the V berth you'll find a large space for accessing shelves and cabinetry. There is shelving that surrounds either side of the berth. Access to the anchor locker is all the way forward and is closed in with wood hatch.

Broker's Comments
This Ingrid 38 was professionally built and commisioned in 1995 by renowned boat builder, Howard Makela (Makela Boatworks) and she is constructed of Douglas Fir planking on White Oak framing.
She was hauled out in 2025 and had a stem to stern refresh by the current owners; a pair of very fastidious and detail oriented graduates of the PNW Wooden Boat School in Port Townsend WA.
As with all Ingrids, she is a heavy, stable blue water sailboat. Trustworthy and solid, she goes where she is pointed without complaining. No doubt, she can keep her crew safe and comfortable in any sea state.
She is also one of very few Ingrids that is offered as a pilot house. All records including drafts and blueprints are available.
In the cabin, you'll find a warm and bright array of cabinetry and joinery that is as solid as the day she was commissioned. A cabinet full of build sheets, system records and manuals will be included with sale and available for viewing for interested buyer. Inside and out she shows wonderfully and is "right as rain" structurally as well as aesthetically". Her interior is dry and clean. All fittings and joinery are tight. No stains or signs of water ingress around fittings. Bilges are dry and clean.
She has a modern Raytheon Radar along with Raymarine, and KVT navionics. All systems function as they should. She needs nothing except a mindful owner, provisioning and desire to carry on.
Her current owners are the 3rd. They are true mariners as well as skilled shipwrights. She has been well loved and cared for, however, a new opportunity has been presented so they have decided to sell.
This Ingrid 38 presents a rare opportunity for the solo sailor or couple to venture off into the deep blue or live aboard and travel the Pacific Northwest.
Note: These boat details are subject to contract.
Note: Offers on the asking price may be considered.
Note: For berthing and docking purposes ; LOA represents LOD as well as overhangs off of stern and forepeak.
