Albemarle 41 Custom Carolina Edition: Carolina Flare, Offshore Heart
1. General Information
The Albemarle 41 Custom Carolina Edition is a striking 13.26 m express sportfisher that brings together decades of North Carolina boatbuilding, owner-led ideas and a proper offshore pedigree. With twin diesel inboards of up to 725 hp, a 2,271 L fuel capacity and a range of around 330 nautical miles at a 30-knot cruise, she is built to run hard to the canyons and fish all day. Below deck, a warm cherry-wood cabin sleeps five, with a forward queen stateroom, a well-equipped galley, a convertible dinette with Pullman berth and a spacious head with a separate shower.
2. Construction and Design
The hull is hand-laid fibreglass with vinylester resin, a fibreglass-encapsulated stringer system and a hull, deck and liner that are both bonded and mechanically fastened. Dramatic Carolina flare at the bow and a 15-degree deadrise give her a dry, confident ride and an unmistakable profile. The entire helm deck rises on hydraulic actuators, opening the engine room for easy servicing of the diesels and the 9 kW Onan generator. Inside, grain-matched American cherry joinery, solid-surface counters, LED lighting and sound-deadening wall treatment create a calm, upmarket space that feels far larger than its length suggests.
3. Key Features
Tournament-ready cockpit: An uncluttered 11.1 m² cockpit with a removable in-deck fishbox, transom fishbox, livewell, bait freezer, flush rod holders and a transom door.
Hydraulic lifting helm deck: The whole helm deck lifts for full engine-room access, making routine maintenance quick and simple.
Comfortable helm and mezzanine: Teak helm chairs, wrap-around lounges and integrated mezzanine seating sit behind a one-piece moulded windshield with excellent visibility.
Serious diesel performance: Twin Cummins QSM11 715 hp diesels deliver a 30-knot cruise and a top speed of about 35 knots.
Cherry-wood comfort below: A queen-berth stateroom, full galley, convertible dinette and dedicated rod lockers make overnight trips genuinely comfortable.
4. Summary
The Albemarle 41 Custom Carolina Edition is made for committed offshore anglers who want a fast, sea-kindly express sportfisher without giving up comfort. It suits owners who fish tournaments, run long distances to the fishing grounds and like to stay aboard for a night or a weekend with family or crew. For buyers who value craftsmanship, easy maintenance and classic Carolina style, it is a compelling and capable choice.
