2006 Rampage

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.
