Overview

The Cape Dory 28 is a graceful Downeast-style cruiser whose lobster boat heritage can be seen in her salty workboat profile. The 28 was built on a semi-displacement hull with moderate beam, round bilges and fully protected prop. A very popular boat, over 220 were built.

New Volvo 265 HP installed in 2001. New Flat screen TV, New Inverter, Fresh expoy bottom.

The boat was sitting in freshwater in Tennessee and has been brought to Florida to be sold! Nicest one on the market.

Brokers Comments
The Cape Dory 28 has always been a very popular small cruiser. The only drawback has been they are slow by today's standards. The boat was repowered with a 265 hp Volvo diesel which has increased her speed significantly. Many upgrades including a expoy bottom, Flat screen TV and inverter.
