Built to your requirements, not a catalog

We design every boat in-house, so we can build to your exact requirements and help you solve the technical problems a catalog boat can't. Tell us the job. We design the hull, structure and layout in 3D CAD, review it with you, and build it in our own shop.

01

Define the job

Where you run, what you carry, who's aboard and what has to go right.

02

Design in 3D CAD

Hull, structure and layout modeled in-house and reviewed with you until it fits.

03

CNC-cut and build

Plate-marked CNC parts, formed and welded to written procedures (AWS D1.2 / D3.7).

04

Sea trial and deliver

Systems tested, sea-trialed and handed over with a 10-year commercial hull warranty.

The plate schedule is on the page

Anyone can say their boats are tough. We publish the plate: bottom, sides, keel and deck, platform by platform, so you know exactly what you're buying.

  • 3D CAD, every partModeled and reviewed with you before plate is cut
  • CNC-cut, plate-markedParts carry their forming and welding instructions
  • Written weld proceduresTo AWS D1.2 and AWS D3.7
  • Keels that take the hitsFull-length vertical keels, welded on all four sides, on our jet boats and landing craft

From CAD to river

The boat matches the drawing

Drag the slider: the Taku 33 in our 3D model, and the same boat on an Alaska river.

One-off custom boats or multi-boat contracts: because every part is CNC-cut from the same model, the tenth hull matches the first.
