The "pandemic years" brought a rise in the boating industry as people looked for new hobbies and outdoor activities that maintained social distance.
Last year, new boat sales hit a 13-year high of 318,550 units. This is a huge gain when you consider longer market trends - only 178,000 units were sold a decade ago.
In that same decade, the tech on boats has upgraded as well. New models now have standard equipment that was only seen as a dream in the past. The 2022 line-up from Carolina Skiff is full of standard equipment that is fun and functional!
The LS Series
The 2022 model year LS series from Carolina Skiff comes equipped with a center console specifically designed for family, fishing, and fun. With an innovative self-bailing deck, the whole LS line provides a smoother, quieter, and dryer ride with ample storage for supplies. A large, removable cooler is built-in, and stainless steel hardware is featured throughout, including cup holders, grab rails, and the adjustable tilt-helm steering wheel.
The SWS Series
Packed with incredible features and amenities specific to fishing, the SWS models include flush-mounded rod holders, a large live bait well and removable cooler, as well as a wide-open deck for easy movement. The standard, gravity feed drains pull water toward strategically placed drainage points - keeping you drier all day long. These models reach the best shallows in rivers, lakes and ponds with a clean feed of undisturbed water to the prop, and can run with or without a jack plate.
The JLS Series
The JLS series delivers a smooth ride featuring a new 2022 modified V-hull with a full liner hull. While a smaller series, no comfort is spared. JLS models come equipped with diamond-pleated upholstery, stainless steel hardware, molded-in storage compartments, and a large live well for fishing. A family-friendly, three-step telescoping stern ladder is even included as a standard feature, making water entry and exit safe and easy.
The Ultra Elite Series
The 2022 model year Ultra Elites feature a large front deck, stern jump seats, console passenger seat, and adjustable leaning post. This series is a line of multipurpose vessels providing fun for families, adventurers, and anglers. For fishing, the Ultra Elite features a large stern live well, a 12/24-volt trolling motor panel with a tilt/trim switch, six flush-mounted rod holders at the console, space for eight additional rod holders, and optional upgrades for two diamond pleated fishing seats. For families, the swim platform with a three-step, telescoping ladder makes getting in and out of the water easy. The Ultra Elite series provides plenty of lockable storage for all your supplies, a removable cooler, and passenger grab handles.
