Cabo 40 Express: The Ultimate Offshore Sportfishing Yacht for the Gulf Coast

By Meredith Amon, Gulf Coast Real Estate Advisor

For those who love serious offshore fishing while maintaining luxury and comfort, the Cabo 40 Express is an ideal choice for Gulf Coast waters. This express-style sportfisher combines power, performance, and an enclosed helm to handle everything from deep-sea fishing excursions to weekend cruising along the coast. Whether you're exploring the Gulf of Mexico, fishing off Orange Beach, or docking at a waterfront home in Gulf Shores, this vessel is built to meet the needs of avid anglers and boaters alike.

Why the Cabo 40 Express is Perfect for the Gulf Coast

Owning a sportfishing yacht like the Cabo 40 Express on the Gulf Coast is an investment in both adventure and lifestyle. Here’s why it stands out:

• Express-Style Sportfisher: The enclosed helm with a large windshield and side windows provides excellent visibility while offering protection from the elements, a crucial advantage when navigating varying Gulf Coast weather conditions.
• Tower with Full Second Station: The tuna tower offers an elevated vantage point, making it easier to spot fish in deep-sea waters. The full second station adds convenience for navigating through tight marina spaces.
• Large Cockpit Space: Designed for serious sportfishing, the spacious aft deck allows for multiple anglers to move freely, making it an excellent choice for tournament fishing or leisure trips.
• Sleek Profile and Hull Design: With deep-V hull construction, the Cabo 40 Express is built for offshore stability, ensuring a smooth and comfortable ride even in choppy Gulf waters.
• Luxury Meets Performance: The yacht’s interior features include a galley, salon, and overnight accommodations, making it a great option for long-range fishing trips or weekend getaways.

Approximate Cost of the Cabo 40 Express in 2025

If you're considering purchasing a new Cabo 40 Express, expect pricing to start around $1.2 million in 2025, depending on optional upgrades and engine configurations. Pre-owned models from recent years can be found in the $500,000–$800,000 range, offering a high-quality alternative at a reduced cost.
