I truly enjoyed the entire experience of buying my first saltwater boat—from picking the perfect boat -to the purchasing-to the first outing. Lawrence was there the entire time. He was great. He was patient and very knowledgeable. Thank you for such good experience

From the first phone call, this was the easiest buying process I've ever had. Dealing with Lawerance made it even better. He was responsive and helpful no matter the question... I live 10 hours away and within three days a brand new boat was at my front door. No hiccups if you're out of town, I recommend giving them a chance

I worked with Lawrence Arthur at Carolina Outboard to buy my first saltwater boat. He provided good insights, service and pricing on a few options, new and used. He made the overall buying experience enjoyable!
