About
The Rampage is designed for one thing in particular,offshore fishing! there can be no doubt. The cockpit has a pair of integrated macerated fishboxes in the deck, a 55-gallon livewell, a built-in tackle station with eight drawers, a rigging station with sink, a bait cooler, and cockpit bolsters ringing the 100-square-foot fish-fighting arena. With a tuna tower, outriggers, upper controls, and a fighting chair in the cockpit the 38 Express,will compete with the majority of the fishing boats out there today fighting chair in the cockpit
Caterpillar C-9 575 HP diesels are the powerplants, Cruising speed is commonly in the mid to upper 20s, with some boats outfitted with twin 575 HP Caterpillars claiming up to a 30-knot cruise. With only 1600hrs on the engines, this 38 has plenty of life ahead of it.
The helm deck features a centered steering station, with a large L-shaped settee to port and the cabin entry plus a passengers seat to starboard. The helm deck is also air-conditioned. A nice feature electrically-opening center vent window in the windshield. Just behind the helm chair, theres a quick-access hatch to the engine room. The primary way of servicing the powerplants, however, is to raise the entire bridgedeck, which is mounted on hydraulic rams. This makes accessing service points quite easy and provides plenty of room to work in.
The use of satin-finish cherry and teak-and-holly in the cabin gives Lime of Coconut a fairly traditional look belowdecks, where youll find a double berth in the bow, a galley, a dinette, and an enclosed head. The settee converts into a berth to increase sleeping accommodations to four. Hanging lockers are cedar-lined, and countertops are solid-surface.
If youre in the market for an offshore fishing boat and have been looking at makes like the Cabo 38 Express, the Pursuit 3800 Express, and the Bertram 360, you should also look at the Rampage 38 it will offer a more affordable alternative to offshore anglers who dont want to break the bank.
I chose Zee (Zvonimir Kalinic) after posting an ad for a broker on Yacht Sales from about 15 other brokers because he showed professionalism and care right away compared to the others. Most of the brokers never intended to show people my boat but yet somehow expected to collect commission. Zee met me in Novigrad and spent 3 hours taking photos and drone footage and throughout the listing period was communicating continuously and advising me about any offers that came through. His service was at a high standard that I was extremely happy with and felt comfortable at all times especially since I’m in Sydney and my boat is in Montenegro. I can’t recommend Zee highly enough to anyone looking to sell their boat with peace of mind.
The brokerage team has been amazing. They helped me find the right catamaran for our family of four, with enough space for extended family and friends to stay with us anytime. The broker really helped me narrow down what I needed. I started with a long list and eventually narrowed it down to something that was the right fit and price for me.
I cannot speak too highly of Andrew Hodgdon and his colleagues at the Multihull Company.
The process of selling my boat was very smooth and well managed and with excellent communication – especially important as I was unable to be nearby during the sale process. Andrew’s deep knowledge of the market and my boat was very reassuring. We spoke regularly and he kept me closely advised all the way through to a happy sale. I found him a good guy, very helpful, willing to share and bounce ideas around, and I enjoyed working with him. Highly recommended!
Andrew Hodgdon and The Multihull Company are really professional! I just closed a deal with them, and everything was pretty smooth. Andrew was punctual, showed a lot of expertise, and he was honest about all the problems with the boat. He is also giving me the support I need to run all the projects on this boat. This whole process was much better than I was expecting, and I recommend this team! Thank you, Andrew.
