Description
1987 Palm Beach 30’ Express
This beautifully maintained 1987 Palm Beach 30 Express is a true blend of classic Custom Carolina-style craftsmanship and modern upgrades. With her plank-on-frame hull, a fresh 3208 Caterpillar diesel engine, and a long list of recent improvements, this Palm Beach delivers timeless looks, smooth performance, and proven fishability.
Repowered just two years ago with a re-manufactured CAT 3208 (320hp), she’s logged only 405 hours since and cruises comfortably at 20 knots sipping fuel. The hull offers the soft, dry ride Palm Beach is known for—perfect for both inshore and offshore runs.
She has a new isinglass enclosure, new bimini top, and Garmin electronics suite including a 10” MFD at the helm, 7” MFD in the tower, and Garmin autopilot for effortless navigation. A bow thruster makes docking simple, while the new batteries keep systems reliable. The cabin has the simple comforts needed for a day offshore and includes a day head as well.
Fishing features include Rupp outriggers, a Murray Brothers fighting chair, livewell, raw water washdown, and plenty of deck space for the serious angler. Entertainment is covered with a full sound system for those long days on the water.
With 300 gallons of fuel, 25 gallons of freshwater, and the charm only a true Palm Beach can offer, this 30 Express stands out as a rare opportunity to own a piece of sportfishing history that’s ready to fish or cruise today.
This Palm Beach 30 Express is a head-turner at the dock and a performer on the water.
