2023 Cape Horn 27 XS

Step aboard and you’ll notice how the wide beam and high freeboard create a secure, dry feel when the sea gets stacked up. The forward seating isn’t just a token perch; it’s genuinely comfortable for a crew that wants to lounge while you work the lines. Underfoot, the deck drains quickly and stays grippy, even when the cockpit gets busy with bait and spray. Storage is everywhere, with deep, insulated boxes ready to swallow gear, ice, and the day’s catch. At the helm, the clean layout leaves plenty of real estate for your preferred electronics suite, and the hardtop keeps sun and weather off without feeling cramped. It’s a serious offshore hull that still cleans up easily after a long run.

This 27-foot center console is dialed in for the mix of inshore structure and offshore grounds found along this stretch of coastline. The hull rides soft when afternoon chop builds, yet the size is manageable for trailering to different ramps and exploring new spots. Shallow enough to work nearshore reefs and inlet rips, it’s also confident running well past the horizon on the right weather window. The generous fuel capacity pairs perfectly with longer runs to tuna or pelagic haunts, while still being efficient for quick evening trips. With family-friendly seating and fishing-focused deck space, it transitions easily from sandbar days to serious offshore missions in the same waters.
