Shoalwater fishing boats has earned a reputation as the premier fishing boat manufacture through hard work, attention to detail and quality control.
We manufacture many style and models of catamaran style fishing boats, from 19' to 25' Catamaran hulls. All of our fishing boats are center console, featuring tunnel hull design for extremely shallow water running. They perform equally well in deep water. We have had great success in marketing our 23' Catamaran as a recreational boat. It is designed after a racing boat hull and is very popular with the younger crowd as a play boat. It is also a favorite with fly fishermen and fishing guides for shallow water fishing.
Our Cat Hull series features include a dual shaped bow for pounding through rough seas while maintaining a nearly flat stern (from the console aft). This design is the best of both worlds, rough water and shallow running. Our rolled gunnels provide splash down for extremely dry ride and extra lift.
