Overview
The Albemarle 288 OBXF (Outboard Express Fisherman) is the early version
of the current 27 Express. She has the same hull, same Yamaha power,
same layout and even the same white powdercoat on the hardtop frame.
But she also has a bow pulpit and windlass for easy anchoring. This
particular boat is well equipped with many thoughtful options including
air conditioning and heat at the helm and a generator. She is a one
owner boat and has always been lift kept. Save more than $100k off the
price of a new boat and enjoy all the benefits of a strong, well built,
offshore capable express fishing boat.

You asked and we listened. The new 27 Express was driven by customer
demand for a strong, proven express fisherman with the performance
enhancements of modern four-stroke Yamaha engines. With higher cruise
speed, increased fuel economy and greater range, the Albemarle 27
creates a whole new realm of possibilities for weekend adventures.
A
comfortable helm deck, rear-facing cockpit seating, a well-appointed
cabin with luxury finishes and a spacious multi-function storage
compartment below the helm deck, it has every amenity an active family
could need.
Sporting a wide array of hardcore fishing features
and the strength and safety of Albemarle?s legendary offshore
capability, the 27 is a perfect combination of fishability and family
fun.
Serious anglers will appreciate its offshore ability,
exceptional handling in rough seas, and fuel economy. Family and guests
will appreciate the beautifully redesigned decks, sleek lines, and
uncommonly roomy cabin. It provides the ultimate package of hardcore
fishing amenities to satisfy any big game enthusiast without the 30 foot
plus price tag.Please note: the above description
is for the current Albemarle 27 Express. The model 288 OBXF has the
same hull, layout and accommodations but features a bow pulpit and
windlass.
