2005 Sea Fox 287 Center ConsoleSold

Step aboard and you’ll notice how beamy and secure this 28-footer feels, with a deep cockpit and high gunnels that keep crew comfortable when the chop picks up. The wide bow offers plenty of room to spread out beanbags or work multiple lines, and the forward seating doubles as extra insulated storage when you’re chasing a big haul. At the helm, the sightlines are excellent—ideal for spotting weed lines and diving birds—and the sturdy T-top gives shade without getting in the way of the rods. Underfoot, the nonskid is confident and grippy, and there’s ample room to work a fish all the way around the boat without bumping into hardware or seating.

This 28-foot center console is perfectly sized for the mixed conditions you’ll encounter here, from winding back-bay channels to open nearshore runs. The hull has enough length and deadrise to soften the afternoon chop, yet it’s still nimble for navigating shallow approaches and crowded ramps. With twin outboards, you get both the redundancy offshore anglers appreciate and the maneuverability needed around bridges, sandbars, and tight marinas. The layout suits local fishing styles: generous cockpit space for trolling spreads, a workable bow for casting structure or reefs, and plenty of storage for gear and safety equipment. It’s a capable, confidence-inspiring platform for the area’s varied waters.
