1999 Carolina Classic 28 Express for sale in Hampton, Virginia

This 1999 Carolina Classic is ready to get you on the fish! Whether it's on the bay or offshore the 28 Carolina Classic will take you there. The express style will keep the captain included in the action when on the helm deck or get the extra visibility from the tower.

This boat has received an extensive list of upgrades to her engines, including water pumps, entire fuel system on the starboard engine, turbos, head gasket port, motor mounts, after coolers port, block heaters, and auto pilot rewired with new compass.

A revised version of the Albemarle 280 Express, the Carolina Classic 28 evolved when former Albemarle employee Mac Privet started Carolina Classic in 1992. Construction is solid fiberglass, and her wide beam results in a very roomy cockpit. In spite of the fact that she's a dedicated fishboat, the 28 has a surprisingly complete cabin below with a big V-berth, stand-up head with shower, compact galley, and air-conditioning with teak-framed joinery. The engines are very accessible, the entire bridge deck can be raised on a pair of hydraulic rams at the push of a button.

The cockpit has plenty of room for a mounted chair and includes a pair of in-deck fish boxes, rod holders, transom livewell, tackle center with sink, and fresh- and saltwater washdowns. Additional features include side-dumping exhausts, wide side decks, high gunwales, and a well-arranged helm with room for flush-mounted electronics.
