This B&D is Hull #105.This is Buddy Davis" last true cold molded sportfish! There were only two other B&D’s built on this jig. Hull #103 is not for sale and is currently fishing in the Bahamas. Hull #104 is in the Seychelles Islands in the Indian Ocean. This boat, Hull #105, is the last hand-built custom cold-molded ever to be produced by Buddy Davis and Donald Blount. The huge beam and prop pockets make for an unbelieveable 4′ draft. She will cruise at 28 knots on approximately 100 gallons per hour for a range of over 400 nautical miles..
The interior and final assembly work were completed by Holton Custom Yachts in Wanchese, NC (Bill Holton is Paul Spencer’s brother-in-law). Dan Bottjen, the CEO of B&D, was hired by Holton Custom Yachts to supervise the remaining construction and interior installation. The result is a high-end custom interior. There really isn’t anything on the market to compare to a custom boat of this quality,
Built by one of the world’s premier boat builders, this vessel is superior in quality and seakeeping abilities. This B&D’s custom interior was done by Holton Custom Yachts in Wanchese, NC. There are four staterooms and three heads in the present plan. The galley is up with dinette opposite and a large salon with wraparound seating to port.

It represents the "new style" upper end Custom Carolina by B&D with cold molded hull and radiused cabin sides and windshield. Hydrostatics and LCG’s computed by Donald Blount and Associates (Naval Architechts) who also designed the tunnel system for this shallow draft vessel. This new custom sportfisherman incorporates all of the advances in custom boat design and the use of modern cold molding technology on hulls and a more agressive use of vacuum bagging and mold techniques on bridge and superstructure items, yielding vessels that are 25% lighter than the all fiberglass boats typically produced by "production builders." Interior walls are weight saving tri-cell and engine rooms are large, expansive and glassed and Awlgripped. The entire inside of the hull is coated in epoxy immediately after jig removal. Machinery tunnel forward is Awlgripped, well lit and easily accessible from the companionway.
