PURSUIT Express: BoatTEST Review

Reviewed by Jeff Hammond

Overview

The Pursuit 3800 Express stands as the flagship model in the Pursuit fleet, designed for serious offshore fishing enthusiasts who demand both performance and comfort. This 38-foot express boat combines rugged construction with refined design elements, making it suitable for tournament fishing as well as leisurely cruising. The 3800 Express reflects years of development and refinement, delivering a premier boating experience in its class.

Exterior Design and Bridge

The 3800 Express features a robust and thoughtfully designed exterior optimized for offshore conditions. The bow is equipped with a molded anchor roller and hawse pipe integrated into the bow pulpit, complemented by a large anchor locker that includes both fresh and saltwater washdowns. The foredeck is finished with a non-skid surface and illuminated by three low-profile deck hatches that enhance natural light below deck. A wraparound windshield contributes to the sleek express styling. The cockpit is purpose-built for serious anglers, featuring a spacious live well with a viewing port and tackle storage beneath, a mate’s seat with additional tackle drawers, floor storage compartments, and a large fish box integrated into the cockpit sole. The transom includes a tuna gate designed to accommodate oversized catches, alongside a flip-up aft bench seat suitable for casual cruising. The bridge deck offers comfortable seating for guests and crew, with the helm station to starboard equipped with digital instrumentation and precise electronic controls for efficient navigation. A wet bar with an isotherm refrigerator is located just aft of the helm, and the entire bridge deck raises hydraulically to reveal a spacious engine compartment, allowing easy access for maintenance.

Interior Living Spaces

Below deck, the salon is appointed with teak veneered walls and a teak and holly sole, providing both elegance and practicality with ample storage beneath the flooring. The settee to starboard converts into a double berth, enhancing sleeping accommodations. The adjacent galley is fully equipped with a sink and sprayer, stove, and refrigerator/freezer, facilitating comfortable extended stays aboard. To port, a tournament rod locker is incorporated alongside a leather couch that converts into an over-and-under double bunk arrangement. Forward of the galley, the full-sized head includes a shower, and the owner’s stateroom is located at the bow, featuring a privacy curtain for added seclusion.

Power and Performance

Powered by twin Volvo 74P diesel engines, the 3800 Express delivers a commanding performance on the water. During testing, the boat achieved a top speed of 37.7 miles per hour at 2650 RPM. The optimal cruising speed was determined to be 27.5 miles per hour at 2000 RPM, which provides an impressive range of approximately 376 miles based on the 450-gallon fuel capacity. The vessel demonstrates quick planing capabilities, reaching plane in just 15.3 seconds. Its wide beam of 14 feet 2 inches and overall length of 40 feet 11 inches contribute to a stable and comfortable ride, even in challenging offshore conditions.

Conclusion

The Pursuit 3800 Express is a thoughtfully engineered offshore fishing platform that balances rugged performance with refined comfort and style. Its advanced hull design, spacious and functional cockpit, well-appointed interior, and robust powertrain make it an excellent choice for anglers who demand reliability and versatility. Whether competing in tournaments or enjoying extended cruises, the 3800 Express offers a superior boating experience that is likely to remain a benchmark in its class for years to come.
