EXTENSIVE UPDATES FROM 2023 THROUGH 2026

If you are looking for a well-equipped 38 Rampage that has already had a significant amount of recent work completed, this one deserves a serious look.

This 2005 Rampage 38 Express is powered by twin 540 HP Cummins QSC 8.3 diesels with 2,134 current hours and approximately 350 hours since rebuild. The turbos were also serviced during the engine work and the aftercoolers were cleaned.

The current owner planned to keep the boat long term and invested heavily in mechanical systems, electronics, fishing equipment and comfort upgrades before his plans changed. The result is a well-equipped express sportfish with many of the items buyers typically find themselves addressing on an older boat already updated.

She is set up to fish with a GAP tower and full upper controls, TACO outriggers with center rigger, insulated fish boxes, transom livewell, plenty of rod storage and a 400-gallon fuel capacity. Electronics include dual Simrad NSS12 evo3 displays, open-array radar, updated autopilot, VHF and a 7-inch touchscreen Simrad in the tower.

The interior is another standout feature of this Rampage. The cabinetry, upholstery and interior finishes have been exceptionally well preserved for a 2005 boat. Recent additions including a new refrigerator, two-burner convection cooktop, LED lighting and two smart TVs help give the cabin a much more updated feel.

With an approximately 25-knot cruise, 30-knot top speed, rebuilt Cummins power, rebuilt generator and an extensive list of recent updates, this Rampage offers a lot of boat for the money.
