2001 Legacy 28 Express | $89,900

The Legacy 28 features an abbreviated keel that allows for good tracking, a modified-V entry that takes the bang out of the seas, and flat aft section that gives the boat stability and easy planing. The standard 250-horsepower engine is capable of powering the boat to 23 knots. Even with a powerful engine, the 28 is quiet, with low-vibration, and virtually free of exhaust fumes. An oversized, pot-style muffler also keeps the sound down and an underwater exhaust system eliminates diesel fumes underway. SUNSET is a fine example of this true Down East pocket cruiser

In 2024, NEW AC/HEAT. In 2022 SUNSET received new batteries, cutlass bearing, heat exchanger, transmission and even a new oil pan, all for keeping her in tip top shape.
