Remarks:

This is no run-of-the-mill, stark for-fishing-only boat. The Contender 38 Express is appointed in a manner that most big boat builders incorporate into their designs. Only the finest aluminum and stainless steel is used on the interior and exterior. The interior is beautifully appointed with teak trim, teak grating in the head, and all the little things that make it a functional and beautiful yacht. The foam-cored solid-glass stringer system maintains an integral connection to the outboard motor platform to ensure rigidity and hull integrity in even the roughest conditions. The design allows for ample room in the cockpit for baitwells, lazarette space, and a fighting chair if so desired. You can't help but notice the stunning custom built aluminum tower. The design team at Contender along with C-Fab put a great deal of thought into the stunning custom built aluminum tower that provides a functional well built tower, sturdy and absolutely beautiful structure. Bottom line, this tower does not look like an add-on or an afterthought. It blends so well that it looks like it was part of the original design.  The bottom line is that the 38' Contender Express is a true fishing machine and a quality vessel. The owner has maintained the boat exceptionally well and shows. So if you are looking for an express, look no further. This Contender is truly turn key and loaded with upgrades.
