2000 Cabo 45 Porosity

The Cabo 45 Express was one of the largest express fishermen of its day. She’s constructed on a beamy modified-V hull with cored hullsides, a deep forefoot, and a well-flared bow. Aside from her rakish profile, perhaps the most distinctive feature of the Cabo 45 is her huge bridge deck with its centerline helm, integral electronics console, and expansive lounge seating. The fully equipped cockpit comes with a transom livewell, a beautifully designed tackle center, and two huge in-deck fish boxes. The engine room, beneath the bridge deck, is massive. The standard single-stateroom interior of the Cabo 45 is meticulously finished, and the spacious salon provides seating for a small crowd. Additional features include storage for over 20 rods, an electrically controlled windshield vent, and a transom door. Cats 800hp will cruise at 28–29 knots. Over 100 were built. Porosity is the preferred two-stateroom layout and is located in the New Orleans Municipal Yacht Harbor East and only a short drive from the Louis Armstrong Airport (MSY).
