Where Offshore Performance Meets Luxury and Innovation
The KingFisher 38 GFX is the new flagship of the KingFisher lineup — a heavy-gauge welded aluminum offshore fishing boat engineered for those who demand uncompromising offshore capability paired with refined comfort. At 38′ with a 12’2″ beam and up to 1,350HP, the 38 GFX sets a new standard for what an aluminum fishing boat can be.
At the heart of every 38 GFX is KingFisher’s proprietary Pre-Flex® hull technology. This trademarked process creates a stronger, lighter hull with a variable 18° deadrise, Shearwater bow design, and precision lifting strakes that deliver exceptional ride quality, stability, and performance in open water — regardless of conditions.
At the helm, the 38 GFX puts total control at your fingertips. A spacious dash built for dual 17″ electronics, full suspension seating, and advanced digital switching ensure you’re always in command. Inside the cabin, nearly 7 feet of headroom, handcrafted cabinetry, a full galley, and climate-controlled comfort create a welcoming retreat on the longest offshore days — and a destination in its own right.
The 38 GFX’s self-bailing cockpit is purpose-built for serious offshore fishing, featuring an 88 USG cockpit floor fish locker, a 44 USG transom fish locker, and a 44 USG livewell — all backed by a 400 USG fuel capacity for extended offshore range. When the day is done, premium overnight accommodations including a queen forward berth with 10’7″ v-berth length and a private 7’11” aft cabin mean you never have to leave the water.
For those looking to take the experience even further, the 38 GFX offers the option to integrate a Seakeeper gyroscopic stabilization system. Seakeeper actively eliminates up to 95% of boat roll — reducing fatigue, seasickness, and strain — so you arrive at the grounds fresh and focused. It’s a refinement you feel immediately, transforming long offshore runs into something smoother, more controlled, and more enjoyable.
The KingFisher 38 GFX is backed by a lifetime hull warranty and supported by an authorized dealer network across North America. Build yours today or find a KingFisher dealer near you to arrange a demo on the water.
