Spencer Yachts: Custom Sportfishing Excellence with Carolina Style
Spencer Yachts is a respected name in the world of custom sportfishing yachts, known for combining tournament-winning performance with elegant craftsmanship. Founded by veteran captain and boat builder Paul Spencer in Wanchese, North Carolina, the company has earned a reputation for pushing the boundaries of design, efficiency, and innovation while staying true to the classic Carolina-style sportfisher aesthetic.
Built by Fishermen, for Fishermen
Paul Spencer launched the company with a clear goal: build boats that perform exceptionally well in real offshore fishing conditions. Drawing from decades of experience on the water, Spencer Yachts are designed with the input of professional captains and crews, ensuring every feature—from hull design to tackle storage—is engineered for serious fishing.
Cold-Molded for Performance
Spencer uses cold-molded construction, a method that layers wood veneers with epoxy to create a hull that is lightweight, strong, and highly efficient. This technique not only reduces overall weight—contributing to faster speeds and better fuel economy—but also enhances ride quality and structural integrity in rough offshore conditions.
Signature Carolina Flair
Spencer Yachts are instantly recognizable by their clean, aggressive lines, flared bows, and sleek profiles, all hallmarks of the Carolina design tradition. Each yacht is completely custom-built, allowing owners to personalize everything from the interior layout and finishes to the fishing equipment and electronics. Inside, Spencer combines luxury and practicality with spacious salons, comfortable staterooms, and premium materials.
