2024 Tidewater 2500 Carolina Bay

The 2024 Tidewater 2500 Carolina Bay is a 25-foot center console bay boat powered by a single Yamaha 300 hp gasoline engine. Built from fiberglass with a 9-foot beam, it combines shallow-water capability with the solid construction Tidewater is known for. The boat comes with an Amera Trail trailer fitted with disc brakes.

Navigation and fish-finding electronics include dual Simrad 12-inch NSS EVO3S displays, a Simrad VHF radio, and both transom and through-hull transducers. A Rhodan 36V 120 lb trolling motor with 84-inch shaft supports shallow-water fishing, backed by two battery chargers. A Power Pole jack plate and 10-inch bimini top complete the fishing setup. Underwater lights and a six-speaker sound system with subwoofer are standard.

Onboard amenities include two live wells, raw and fresh water systems, and a slide-out rear cooler. The boat features electric throttle and steering for easy operation, with a large back shade.

The engine and running gear have been maintained with two full annual services at a Yamaha dealership. The cranking batteries were recently replaced. The boat comes with an extended warranty, including four years from the last month of purchase.
