Carolina Classic designed and built the Classic 25 for the boater who wants a capable offshore boat he can trailer and launch near his favorite fishing grounds. This all-weather fishing boat delivers all that its name promises: the distinctive Carolina-flared bow, amidships power for fast performance and ideal balance in heavy seas, a spacious flush deck cockpit and long-range fuel capacity. Fully rigged she delivers speeds in excess of 45 mph.

Like all Carolina Classic boats, Motley Crew is rigged with the top-of-the-line components and hardware serious fishermen prefer. The self-bailing cockpit boasts high gunwales and recessed hawse pipes, plenty of rod holders, fresh- and raw-water wash-downs, and a live bait-well/fish box. The cockpit also features a tackle-rigging station that doubles as extra seating. Forward, you'll find a full-sized cuddy cabin with a V-berth, lockable rod storage and an electric head.

Motley Crew has been well cared for and has some important updates. The engine was professionally rebuilt in 2023. The Volvo Duo Prop outdrive is rebuilt in 2017. The canvas was recently renewed and looks great! New electronics in 2022.

Motley Crew is stored on the hard at our marina. Come have a look!
