A custom Carolina yard on the Outer Banks, building since the 1980s, at Frisco until 2010 and at Wanchese since Charley Pereira bought it in 2011. By its own count it has built 20 boats from 30 to 65 feet, eight of them its well-known 57. The Coast Guard file carries its hulls from 1987 to 2025, most of them 57-footers.
