2008 Cabo 38 Express

**Available to Show**

An excellent opportunity to own a well maintained 38’ Cabo Express Sportfisherman! One of the popular brands out there! This express can be used for boating with the family but really shines when it comes to offshore fishing. Especially with all her special features. Introduced in 2008, the Cabo 38 Express was an entirely new hull design for Cabo. With her super-wide 15'1" beam, she has considerably more cockpit, helm deck, and interior space than any other express boat in her class. The wide cockpit with its big 48-gallon transom live-well, outward-opening transom door, insulated fish boxes, and a molded bait prep/ tackle station with freezer and cutting board make her a fisherman's dream.
