Overview

Don't miss this opportunity to get into a brand new 28' Custom Carolina center console without the 18 month to 2 year wait! She was built by a true Wanchese boat building legend, Irving Forbes and is 100% constructed out of composite materials. She just came out of the shop in May and with only 65 hours on her, she has already caught Tuna and Dolphin around the Point, Cobia off the beach and Speckled trout in the Sound...

At 5800 lbs loaded, she cruises at a steady 35 mph with a single 350 and burns just 16gph. She tops out just shy of 50. Her bottom design allows for a comfortable, dry ride and is very responsive to the throttle and steering wheel. She is very clean and simple, easy to maintain, yet rigged up very specifically for a boat that can thrive in a variety of different fishing situations.

Her tower is well thought out and built to get the most out of while maintaining a sleek footprint along the centerline and helm layout area. There is ample storage throughout the boat and a huge step-in side console access that also ties into a finished out storage tunnel forward to the anchor locker bulkhead.

There is also no worrying with in-deck fish boxes and undependable macerator pumps...She has a bona fide Oregon Inlet transom fishbox that will hold a pile of fish. She was built and laid out by a fisherman and it shows when you move around in the boat but she's also plenty comfortable and suitable to cruise with the family or anchor up off the Sand Island and have some fun.

She comes with a new LoadRite double axle aluminum trailer and the motor is warrantied through April 2030. This thing is sharp, shiny and totally rigged up. If you have been thinking about a mid range center console where looks, efficiency and performance matter, this brand new 28 Forbes Custom might be right up your alley...
