2003 Cabo Flybridge Sportfish

Accommodations

Interior execution is just as good. The saloon is designed for fishermen, with a comfortable L-shape settee and table directly opposite the entry door, providing a raised view of the cockpit through the window in the after bulkhead. Here, in air-conditioned or heated comfort, an angler can be ready for action while avoiding harsh elements. To port is another wraparound settee with hidden rod stowage underneath.

Down a couple of steps is the compact galley, with a Sub-Zero under-counter refrigerator and freezer, a two-burner ceramic cooktop and a surprisingly spacious Corian counter.

The master stateroom is to starboard. Cabo managed, by stealing half inches here and there, to provide a space far larger than you’d expect in a 43-foot yacht. The raised settee in the saloon, for example, permits a higher ceiling over the master berth, and a flat-screen TV mounted on the bulkhead doesn’t impinge on hanging locker space. The private head has an oversized stall shower large enough to enjoy without banging elbows.

Forward, a clever stacking arrangement allows room for a lower and a pair of upper V-berths, as well as drawers to port and a hanging locker large enough to actually hang clothes. The day head to port serves the forward cabin and includes a curtained shower.

Engine Room

The 43’s engineroom, like those on all Cabos, is big and beautifully finished, right down to the gelcoated bilge. With easy access from the cockpit, literally everything is readily accessible from the stuffing boxes to the seacocks. This boat is designed with maintenance in mind.

General Information

Some of the most important cockpit items, however, are likely to go unnoticed, such as the large scuppers that will keep up with drainage while backing down hard in a lumpy sea.

The flying bridge features a comfortable, tournament-style layout with a centerline helm aft overlooking the cockpit. Fully adjustable helm and companion pedestal chairs, and there’s enough room to walk behind the chairs.

Next to the VDO engine gauges is an immense console panel that can handle a full array of flush-mounted electronics within easy reach of the wheel. Palm Beach-style throttles/shifters are on each side of the stainless-steel wheel. Forward of the helm is a forward-facing bench seat with great stowage and a built-in cooler underneath, as well as a portside settee.
