2003 Grady-White 330 Express WaSold

Step aboard and you’ll see why this 330 Express has such a loyal following. The wide, level side decks and sturdy bow rails make moving forward to handle ground tackle or work the foredeck feel secure, even when it’s bumpy. Inside, the cabin layout is surprisingly open for a serious fishing boat—natural light from overhead hatches and portlights keeps it from feeling cave-like, and there’s enough headroom for taller crew to move comfortably. At the helm, the elevated seating gives you a clear view over the bow, while the companion bench and aft-facing seat keep everyone in the conversation. Thoughtful touches like abundant rod storage, non-skid everywhere you step, and hefty hardware throughout hint at the long-term ownership Grady-White designs for.

For these waters, a 330 Express hits a sweet spot between hardcore offshore capability and family-friendly comfort. The deep-V hull and substantial beam help tame the short, stacked chop that can build quickly when the wind comes up, while the outboard setup lets you run skinny enough to explore inshore cuts and sandbars. Long runs to the grounds are easier with the protected helm and seating for crew to ride in comfort, not just stand and hang on. When the bite slows or weather turns, the well-appointed cabin gives you a cool, dry retreat for kids to nap or friends to overnight, turning a quick trip into a full weekend afloat.
