This 2003 Albemarle 305 Express combines classic Carolina styling, a spacious fishing cockpit and comfortable overnight accommodations with twin Caterpillar diesel power. Recent improvements to the canvas, upholstery, plumbing and mechanical systems give this express fisherman a fresh presentation and make her an appealing option for offshore fishing, coastal cruising and weekends aboard.

Powered by twin Caterpillar 3126 TA 300 HP diesel engines with approximately 1,250 hours, she offers a straightforward inboard propulsion package. Recent engine maintenance and new Tides dripless shaft seals complement the boat’s cosmetic updates. Maintained by the infamous Guy Crudele for the last 13 years with service records, ‘MECOB’ is ready for her next adventure.  Approximately $14,000 in recent improvements and maintenance has been invested, and the owner reports all installed systems are operational.

Cockpit and fishing features

The large, open cockpit provides ample working room for fishing and easy movement around the boat. Features include recessed rod holders, under-gunwale rod storage, cockpit storage compartments and a transom door. The tower with upper helm provides an elevated vantage point, while the covered helm deck offers protection from the elements during longer runs.

Updated helm deck

The centerline helm arrangement provides excellent visibility and convenient access to both sides of the boat. New upholstery on the helm chair and companion seating gives the area a clean, coordinated appearance. SeaDek flooring adds comfort underfoot and a finished look, while the new canvas and clear enclosure panels provide weather protection without sacrificing visibility.

Cabin and accommodations

Below deck, the cabin features a forward berth, convertible-style dinette seating, warm wood cabinetry and a compact galley with sink, refrigerator and microwave. The layout provides a comfortable retreat for overnight trips or a break from the weather. An enclosed private head features a newly installed toilet and updated plumbing.
