Our Boats

Our production facilities in both the United States and Asia help us achieve our mission by spending a great amount of time and care in the production of each boat. With over twenty years of experience, our factories and their craftsmen allow us to ensure that our boats are built to the highest standards possible. This exceptional attention to detail, using the finest materials available, results in an extremely high quality product at a more favorable price to the consumer.

We have searched the globe to source the best equipment available for our boats. Our suppliers included trusted brands like North Sails, Optiparts, Harken, Ronstan, and many more.
