2000 Rampage 30 Express

This 2000 Rampage 30 Express is a purpose-built offshore sportfisher with a reputation for solid construction and reliable performance. The hull combines pre-impregnated end-grain balsa sandwiched between fiberglass and resin layers for strength and insulation. Powered by twin Yanmar diesel engines producing 630 horsepower, the boat reaches speeds of 26 knots and cruises comfortably at 22 knots, with a 19-degree deep-V hull designed to handle varied sea conditions.

The cockpit is engineered for fishing, featuring a self-bailing layout, 38-gallon baitwell, swing-out transom door, full coaming bolsters, and a dedicated bait-prep station with an insulated, removable fish box and macerator. Fresh and raw water washdowns are plumbed throughout. The helm includes full instrumentation with engine synchronization gauges and hour meters, plus a tilting aluminum steering wheel for convenient access to wiring and electronics. Fuel and fresh water capacities of 250 and 31 gallons support extended cruising range. The engine compartment is electrically accessed, lighted, and sound-insulated for straightforward maintenance.

Below deck, accommodations are finished in cherry wood with gold hardware. A convertible settee lounge transforms into upper and lower sleeping berths with rod storage underneath, while the forward cabin offers a roomy double V-berth with cedar-lined hanging closet. The galley includes refrigeration, microwave, and ample storage; the head features a tile floor, standup shower, vanity with sink, and storage.
