This 2020 Blue Wave 2800 Makaira was custom ordered with nearly every factory box checked, and it shows just 168 hours on a single Suzuki DF350A. Service was completed in September 2026, and the jack plate pump is new, so the next owner can step aboard and go.
The 2800 Makaira is Blue Wave's flagship hybrid: shallow enough to work the flats and the bay, with the size and hull to run offshore when the weather allows. This one was built to fish both.

Since 1992, Blue Wave Boats has been synonymous with quality and innovation, and now they set their sights on the ultimate fishing experience with the Makaira. This offshore hybrid boat is a game-changer, offering the perfect balance between offshore capability and nearshore convenience. Whether you're chasing big game in deep waters or exploring coastal treasures, the Blue Wave 2800 Makaira is your ideal companion.
Unmatched Offshore and Nearshore Versatility:
The Makaira is built on the wildly successful 2800 Pure Hybrid platform, ensuring exceptional performance both offshore and nearshore. With its shallow draft, it can navigate inshore waters with ease while still handling offshore conditions like a pro. Wherever your fishing adventure takes you, the Makaira is ready.
Feature-Rich Design:
Blue Wave ensures that you have all the essentials and more with this 2020 Makaira. Standard features include top-notch Garmin electronics, deluxe captain's seats on a tackle station, a compass, a 3-sided tempered glass windshield, a freshwater washdown, a swim platform with a ladder, and a sleek t-top with a finished edge. Plus, you have the stand-through second station, Minn Kota 112lb thrust trolling motor, 10' Blade PowerPole.
Spacious Cockpit and Forward Seating:
The Makaira boasts a roomy cockpit that rivals traditional center consoles. The forward seating wraps around and easily converts into a casting platform or u-shaped seating, giving you flexibility for various activities. The forward pitch-well, a signature feature of the 2800 Makira, is front and center, and it can be equipped with an optional quick stow and easy access table and base, providing functionality unseen in larger boats.
Smart Storage Solutions:
Blue Wave's attention to detail shines with lockable rod storage built into the gunwales, both port and starboard, capable of accommodating up to ten 8' rods with reels. These compartments also double as dry storage, keeping your gear safe and organized.
Easy Bilge Access:
Accessing the bilge compartment has never been more straightforward on a 28-foot boat. The entire aft jumpseat lifts, providing total access to the bilge compartment. For added convenience, all pumps are clearly labeled, making this boat incredibly user-friendly.
