A SUP Customs hybrid skiff running skinny water

America’s Premier Motorized Skiff Builder

The skiff that goes where boats can’t.

We turn the only fiberglass catamaran paddle board in the world into a 20 mph motorized skiff that runs in inches of water, launches anywhere — no ramp — and costs about 88 cents of gas a day. Built by hand by a father and son. From an idea all the way to time on the water.

Do you need a boat?

You get what you actually use a boat for — without the boat.

“Comfort, standing and moving around freely, all the boat equipment, the ability to cover water… without the price tag and without the boat. No gas bills stacking up, no cleaning days, no maintenance headaches, no insurance, no waiting at crowded ramps. Just load up, launch anywhere, and go.”

It’s not about replacing your boat. It’s about getting out there with way fewer limits.

  • No ramps, no crowds — launch roadside, off a beach, anywhere
  • Sealed fiberglass catamaran hull — stand, walk, even fish off a cooler
  • Airboat coating & keel guards — slide over oysters, shell, mud and rock
  • Strips to a bare paddle board in minutes; stacks 2–3 high for transport
  • Start simple and grow the rig: paddle → trolling motor → gas

Our story

We weren’t trying to start a company. We were trying to solve a problem.

We were just a father and son who dove into motorizing LIVE boards years ago as hobbyists. We wanted more range. More efficiency. More portability. So we engineered mounts, tested props, solved cavitation issues, and fine-tuned balance until it did exactly what we were looking for. What started as late nights in the garage turned into real-world solutions on the water.

No jumping on trends. No slapping motors on vessels that weren’t designed for it. We’re still that same family building and taking care of your setups today. This isn’t mass production — it’s passion turned performance.
