This 1999 Albemarle 305 Express Fisherman is a Carolina-style offshore sportfishing boat built on a hand-laid fiberglass hull with an 11-foot beam. She is powered by twin Caterpillar 3116TA turbo diesel engines rated at 300 horsepower each, running direct drive. The engines have logged approximately 4,334 hours. She cruises at 18 knots with a top speed of 28 knots.
The cockpit is designed for serious fishing, with in-deck fish boxes, bait tank, tackle storage, coaming bolsters, and room for multiple anglers. A tuna tower with full control and electronics package is mounted above. The elevated helm provides good visibility and weather protection. The boat handles well in offshore conditions and offers strong maneuverability.
Below deck is a cabin with a forward V-berth, convertible dinette, enclosed head, and galley. This layout provides sleeping and living space for extended trips or weekend cruising. The accommodations make the boat suitable for both fishing operations and overnight stays.
