Turnkey, Tournament-Ready, and Cruising Capable
The 2008 40’ CABO ANDY is a rare, factory-custom sportfisher designed for serious bluewater anglers. Customized from the factory by legendary Capt. Peter B. Wright, she is one of very few 40’ Cabo Convertibles ever built with a full tower, purpose-designed for world-class fishing performance.
Powered by upgraded MAN 800 engines, ANDY delivers reliable speed, range, and efficiency for Caribbean bluewater fishing and island cruising. Her lightweight Pipewelders Marine tower, constructed of aircraft-grade aluminum and carbon fiber, provides exceptional visibility with minimal weight penalty.
A proven performer, she holds two women’s world records for Blue Marlin on fly and has an established history of consistently raising billfish across the region. Professionally maintained and updated with numerous 2024–2025 upgrades, ANDY is turnkey and ready to fish immediately.
All fishing equipment conveys with the vessel, offering a true plug-and-play opportunity.
