Main Description

The 2008 40’ CABO “ANDY” is a standout express sportfisher, purpose-built with Capt. Peter B. Wright’s input and customized from the factory for serious Caribbean bluewater fishing and long-range cruising. A proven performer, she holds two women’s world records for Blue Marlin on fly and a pedigree of raising billfish across the region.

Extensively upgraded and professionally maintained, her 2024–2025 enhancements include ZF digital controls, Veem props, new helm seats, Starlink internet, a rebuilt refrigerator/freezer, and a new 12KW Northern Lights generator. Fishing gear features a Pipewelders tower, Pompanette unlimited chair, Miya Epoch US-9 teaser reels, dual fish boxes with Eskimo ice plumbed, and electric reel outlets. Comforts include a spacious salon, step-down galley, master stateroom, guest cabin, and custom tackle room.

Powered by twin 800 HP MANs with new batteries and serviced systems, “ANDY” is fully outfitted for tournament angling or island cruising. Travel-proven from Fort Lauderdale to Martinique, she’s turnkey and ready for her next adventure.
