2004 Pro-Line 30 ExpressSold

Step aboard and you’ll notice how much cockpit space this 30 Express gives you to work a spread or gear up for a dive. The wide beam and tall gunwales add a sense of security when you’re backing down on fish or running offshore swell. At the helm, sightlines are excellent, with a simple, sensible layout that keeps electronics and controls right where you want them. Below, the cabin is surprisingly bright for a serious fishing platform, with enough room to escape the sun, grab a nap between tides, or overnight on a quick island hop. Ample storage throughout keeps decks clean and ready for action.

This 30 Express shines in warm, shallow-coast and nearshore environments where you might jump from reef fishing to sandbar lounging in a single day. The outboard setup is ideal for creeping into skinny water, beaching close to shore, or trimming up to clear grass and debris. Its size offers the confidence to fish offshore structure on good weather windows, yet it’s still manageable for a small crew or even a capable solo operator. The cabin and enclosed head make it comfortable during sudden squalls or when the heat index soars, while the open cockpit is ready for both serious anglers and relaxed family days on the water.
