2012 Custom Carolina 24 Boat in Largo, FL 33770 US

This one-of-a-kind 25' Custom Carolina combines classic Carolina craftsmanship and distinctive styling with an extensive 2026 refurbishment, brand-new Suzuki power, new electronics, and new rigging.

Originally built in 2012, the boat has undergone a substantial 2026 refit, including a complete restoration and refinishing of the wooden hull to like-new condition. The result preserves the character and traditional construction of a custom-built Carolina while adding the modern power, navigation, controls, and onboard technology expected from a contemporary center console.

At the heart of the refit is a brand-new 2026 Suzuki DF300B 300 HP four-stroke 4.4L V6 outboard with 0 hours. The engine is paired with Suzuki DEC digital throttle and shift controls, hydraulic steering, hydraulic trim tabs, and a power jack plate.

The helm has also been extensively modernized and is highlighted by an impressive 19-inch Simrad NSO evo3S multifunction display. Additional electronics include Simrad radar, sonar, VHF, FLIR night-vision camera, and a Fusion premium sound system. More than $30,000 has been invested in new electronics and accessories as part of the refurbishment.

Unlike a mass-produced fiberglass center console, this Custom Carolina offers the craftsmanship, character, and substantial feel associated with traditional wooden Carolina construction. The hull's classic lines, deep navy finish, rich wood accents, white upholstery, and modern hardtop create a distinctive appearance that stands out at the dock and on the water.

The open center-console layout provides excellent versatility for offshore and inshore fishing, cruising, entertaining, family outings, and sandbar days. Forward seating provides generous lounging space, while the walk-around layout allows easy movement from bow to stern. Multiple storage compartments, dual livewells, saltwater washdown, hardtop-mounted rod holders, cockpit seating, and an aft boarding ladder add practical functionality for long days on the water.
