Description

Vessel Overview

Rare opportunity to own a true Custom Carolina sportfish built by renowned Carolina boatbuilder Buddy Cannady. This 1990 walkaround cabin sportfish combines classic Carolina lines with extensive mechanical and cosmetic updates completed over the last several years. Built plank-over-frame with Juniper and Atlantic white cedar construction under USCG supervision, this vessel was designed for practical offshore fishing, day charter operations, and reliable cruising.

Notably, this is reportedly the only Buddy Cannady-built vessel inspected to carry more than six passengers with this COI distinction.
