1987 1987 Vansant 30Sold

Step aboard and you’ll notice how thoughtfully Fox is laid out for real-world use. The helm offers excellent sightlines whether you’re seated or standing, with everything within easy reach so you can run the boat comfortably all day. The open cockpit invites you to move freely around the engine well, making it simple to tend a line, set a crab pot, or just stretch out with a drink in hand. Inside the cuddy, the finish work feels warm and purposeful rather than fussy, with practical storage spots that keep gear out of the way. Fox has the kind of honest, workboat DNA that rewards an owner who actually uses their boat, not just polishes it.

This Vansant 30 is particularly well-suited to the sheltered bays, winding creeks, and shallow sounds common in the area. Her narrow beam and efficient hull let you slip into skinny water and explore back channels where deeper, heavier boats hesitate. At the same time, the solid tracking and steady ride make longer runs across choppy open stretches comfortable and predictable. The open working cockpit is perfect for crabbing, light tackle fishing, or loading coolers and beach gear, while the compact cabin offers a simple place to duck out of the sun or spend a spontaneous night aboard. It’s a boat that matches the laid-back, exploratory style of local boating.
