Red Tail Boat | 38' Custom Carolina Lightning 2017

Red Tail is a highly customized 37' 6" sportfisherman built by Lightning Custom Yachts in Beaufort, North Carolina, and commissioned in 2017. Her cold-molded, epoxy-encapsulated wood-composite hull combines Kevlar reinforcement, Coosa-cored high-load areas, and exceptional old-growth teak detailing for a distinctive blend of strength, craftsmanship, and classic style. Powered by twin 550 hp Cummins QSB 6.7 diesels with Twin Disc Quickshift gears and trolling capability, she is purpose-built for serious offshore fishing, featuring a Pipewelders marlin tower, carbon-fiber outriggers, expansive 540-gallon fuel capacity, premium Furuno electronics, and a well-equipped cockpit with an Eskimo ice-fed fish box, livewell, abundant rod storage, and teak finishes throughout.

Build commissioned by the current/original owner. Stored inside heated building for 7 months per year since new!
