Rampage EXPRESS: BoatTEST Review
Overview
The Rampage 41 Express is designed to blend offshore fishing capabilities with enhanced cruising comfort. Measuring 44 feet in length overall with a 16-foot beam and a 4-foot draft, this vessel aims to satisfy anglers seeking a versatile boat that handles challenging sea conditions while providing a comfortable onboard experience.
Exterior Design and Bridge
The helm is center-mounted and thoughtfully arranged, featuring twin multifunction displays positioned within easy reach and two upper panels angled toward the captain for additional navigation equipment. Waterproof switches are conveniently located below and to the left. The helm seat offers comfort with fore-and-aft sliding and swivel functions, though a slightly higher seating position would be preferable. Visibility from the helm is excellent due to narrow window mullions, facilitating precise maneuvering in tight spaces without the aid of a bow thruster. The Rampage 41 Express demonstrates exceptional controllability, even in adverse conditions such as a 30 mph crosswind during docking. The ZF engine controls are positioned to allow the captain to face aft while maintaining control when backing into tight slips. The cockpit provides approximately 100 square feet of usable space with modular components including a port side seat with a freezer, a starboard rigging station equipped with a cutting surface, sink, and tackle storage, and a 65-gallon transom live well that doubles as a kill box and bait well. Additional features include optional tuna tubes, a gasketed fish door, multiple fish boxes with macerators, numerous rod holders, and safe access to the bow via grab handles and molded channels. The foredeck is outfitted with two deck hatches flanking a windlass and a molded pulpit securing the anchor, all set on a non-skid surface.
Power and Performance
Powered by twin 715 horsepower Caterpillar C-12 engines, the Rampage 41 Express has an empty weight of 30,000 pounds and a test displacement of 32,800 pounds with half fuel and four persons aboard. The vessel achieved a top speed of 35.7 knots at 2367 rpm, consuming just under 67 gallons per hour, which translates to a range of approximately 337 nautical miles. The most efficient cruising speed was found at 1750 rpm, delivering 24.5 knots with a fuel burn of 35.6 gallons per hour and an extended range of 433 nautical miles. The boat planes in 11.7 seconds and reaches 30 miles per hour in 13.6 seconds. Handling was tested in challenging conditions with 4 to 6-foot seas, where the wide flare bow effectively deflected water to the sides, maintaining stability and preventing bow submersion. The vessel remained steady in beam seas and showed excellent tracking in following seas without stern drift. Spray was noticeable on the windshield due to wind conditions, but cockpit drainage was efficient thanks to large scuppers. Backing down into heavy seas was manageable, maintaining steerage while simulating fishing maneuvers.
Engine Compartment and Systems
Access to the engine compartment is provided via a day hatch in the helm deck walkthrough or by activating a switch at the starboard rigging station to hydraulically lift the entire cockpit deck. The engine room offers ample workspace around the twin Caterpillar C-12 engines, illuminated by large work lights for nighttime maintenance. The forward bulkhead houses the main battery switches and circuit breakers, while the aft bulkhead contains dual Raycor fuel filters equipped with ball valves for on-the-fly servicing. A standard 11.5 kW generator is installed, with an option to upgrade to a 13 kW unit.
Interior Living Spaces
The helm deck features storage compartments to port and a refrigerator to starboard, complemented by two grab handles for safety. Seating includes L-shaped lounges on both port and starboard sides with storage beneath, and forward observer seats that swivel and slide to engage with the helm area. Optional teak ladder-back seats are available for enhanced aesthetics. The overhead clearance stands at 6 feet 6 inches, and an optional full-length grab rail can be added for additional security.
Conclusion
The Rampage 41 Express successfully combines robust offshore fishing capabilities with comfortable cruising amenities. Its responsive handling in confined spaces and challenging sea conditions, coupled with a well-thought-out layout and functional features, make it a versatile vessel suitable for anglers who desire both performance and comfort. This thorough sea trial confirms the 41 Express as a battle-ready fishing platform that does not compromise on cruising enjoyment.
