Please, please, please! The new Jersey Cape 45 Express will be there and I recommend to anyone Who loves quality, form and function, step aboard. I cannot make it but would love pics of this Beauty.
Saw it yesterday. Have some pics coming later today. IT WAS IMPRESSIVE. Have to say of our group of guys that boat probably got the most comments. Beautiful layout, fit/finish, and even a really nice interior. Met the builder and ?wife, very nice folks. Gotta say that was one of the best done 45' boats i've seen. I've never been on a Jersey Cape but if that boat represents all of their work - - wow!!!
I have heard it is just beautiful. Wayne and Genine are hard working, honest and fair. They deserve a ton of credit for evolving the Jersey Cape 36 into a complete line of high quality offshore sportfish boats from 31'-66'. I can't wait to see Your pictures.
I like the Ice....
Marlineer, check your White balance settings on your camera, the bluish color in your photo is coming from that setting not being correct.

Its the only solid glass 45 carolina style hull available! You wont find a better constructed boat all the way to the things you dont see like electric and mechanical.

So its built out of a 2 piece hull mold?? Also, being its solid glass, is it heavier than a cold molded boat??
Yes the mold is two pieces and the hull is one piece.

Yes the hull is heavier then a cold molded wood or foam boat. If you fish flat water light weight is good for lotsa speed. If you fish rough water you will wish you had a heavy hull under you! Its your choice and All boats are a compromise? The 31 bertram was built from a two piece mold and was a solid glass hull that became a legend because they never die. I dont think a boat that stays in the water should have a core under water.
Could anybody inform the approximate price? With a marlin tower, instead of the tuna tower? Much appreciated. Anybody has any pictures and price of the smaller JERSEY CAPE 40, EXPRESS? I gather is the same boat, but smaller.
That tower is the choice for looks and function on an express that size.

Since I have owned a few expresses I can tell you there is a whole science to towers and looks. Good Looks that is. Why try to make this beautiful boat not beautiful? I also heard that this boat is based on the old 44 davis that had a hell of a good rough water reputation, but with vast changes to the bottom and the whole boat in general. Larger spray rails and a longer bottom. I have not ridden on this boat my self but a captain friend did and said it has a good ride in a rough sea.
Thanks BLY. These boats are just the epitome of beauty, class and quality. I cannot have it with the tuna tower. It won't fit in my shed. I would like to consider the EXPRESS 40 as well. No info at all in their web page. If anybody has any information on the price, please advise.
Ive never seen the 45 but the 36 is ridiculous. this may be a dumb question but whats the difference between and tuna tower and a marlin tower? is it just the height difference?
There's one by me up here in jersey and Ive never gotten it out of my head. The 36 had a center drive position more aft like close to the cockpit such a nice set up. http://tournamentyachtsales.com/priv...slim=pp275314&
