One of largest express boats of her era, the Pursuit 3800 Express is a big inboard express whose bold styling was the subject of much attention when she was introduced in 2002. Heavily built on a modified-V hull with a wide 14'2"" beam and a solid fiberglass bottom, the cockpit dimensions of the 3800 rival those of a larger boat. A comfortable L-shaped settee is opposite the double helm seat, and the entire helm deck can be raised at the push of a button for access to the engines. The cockpit—which can easily handle a full-size fighting chair—is fitted with a full array of fishing amenities including a bait prep center, 50-gallon standup livewell, cockpit freezer, in-deck storage, rod storage racks, and a foldaway transom seat. Below deck, the spacious teak-trimmed interior of the 3800 Express sleeps six and includes a convertible L-shaped dinette (with inlaid teak table), aft quarterberth with flip-up backrest, head with separate stall shower, and a queen berth forward with privacy curtain. Note upright rod display locker just inside the companionway. Among several engine options, 450hp Cummins (or 480hp Volvo) diesels cruise in the mid 20s (30+ top).
