Ocean Master 31 Express – Repowered with Mercury 350 hp Verados
The Ocean Master 31 is a heavy-duty offshore fishing boat built in Florida and well known for its rugged construction and exceptional ride quality. These boats have earned a strong reputation among serious offshore anglers thanks to their ability to handle rough water and long runs offshore with confidence.
This particular boat is offered by its second owner, who purchased her from the original owner in 2010. In 2017 the boat was repowered with Mercury Verado outboards, including digital throttle and shift controls at both helm stations. Performance is strong with a top speed around 50 mph and a comfortable cruise in the mid-30 mph range.
The Ocean Master hull is known for its dry ride, high bow flare, and excellent stability, making it an outstanding offshore fishing platform. With the Armstrong bracket and closed transom, the boat feels larger than its 31-foot designation and provides a very spacious cockpit with plenty of room for fishing, diving gear, or charter use.
The cabin layout is simple and functional, housing a VacuFlush head, house batteries, and 12V/110V electrical systems.
Electronics were updated in 2023 with Simrad displays at both the upper and lower helms, including plotter, sounder, and radar. The upper helm display is fully functional, while the lower helm display is currently inoperative. The boat is also equipped with new VHF radios, Mercury VesselView at the lower helm, and SmartCraft gauges at the upper helm.
