The Dawn of a New Era in Sportfishing

The Carolina Classic is thrilled to announce the construction of the new 45-foot Carolinian Fish Around Express, set to make its debut in early 2025. This launch marks a significant milestone, showcasing Albemarle Boats’ relentless pursuit of innovation and excellence in boat manufacturing.

A Legacy of Innovation and Quality

According to Albemarle’s General Manager, Burch Perry, “The introduction of the 53 Spencer Edition in October was a testament to our dynamic approach to introducing new models—our sixth in less than seven years. The 45 Carolinian is a product of our commitment to innovation, designed to exceed the expectations of our Express boat clientele seeking to upgrade in size without compromising on the fishability that Albemarle is known for. This model is a tribute to our heritage, yet it stands out for its unique blend of size, power, and layout.”

Engineering Excellence and Design Innovation

Unparalleled Strength and Aesthetics

The 45 Carolinian’s hull is a testament to Albemarle’s commitment to quality and performance, featuring a Carolina flare, tumblehome, and a soft broken sheer that is both aesthetically pleasing and functional. Utilizing vacuum infusion with vinylester resin and foam core, the hull’s strength is unmatched. Moreover, Albemarle’s signature one-piece construction technique ensures durability and a seamless finish, setting new standards in boat manufacturing.

A Fusion of Comfort and Performance

The boat’s innovative layout merges hardcore fishing capabilities with luxurious seating and a spacious interior, designed for both short adventures and extended cruising. Powered by triple 600 HP Mercury engines, it offers exceptional speed, agility, and a shallow draft, redefining expectations for fishing and cruising vessels alike.

Keith Privott, Albemarle Director of Sales and Product Development, emphasizes the model’s customizability and functional design, stating, “This new model is a blend of traditional Carolina aesthetics and modern functionality, offering unparalleled visibility and versatility.
