Welcome to Hell’s Bay Boatworks…

It’s been nearly a decade since the launch of the first Hell’s Bay boat and it’s been an amazing ride. Through the years, our team of expert boat designers has never forgotten our core mission to build the finest shallow water performance boats in the world.

As the new owner of Hell’s Bay Boatworks, I am excited about our future and continuing to provide the serious angler a boating experience that is second-to-none. I’ve been an avid fisherman my whole life, and from my first ride on a Hell’s Bay Boatworks skiff I’ve been hooked. Not to mention how many fish I hooked!

Every boat in our fleet is designed to meet the unique challenges of shallow water fishing. Our silent hull designs are legendary. our interior layouts, bait wells, dry storage, consoles, rigging and electronics are innovatively designed, and crafted from the highest quality materials available.

Whether you are a professional guide whose boats get a daily workout, or a weekend angler, you’ll find that Hell’s Bay boat owners are a unique fraternity of outdoorsmen who take their passion for fishing very seriously.

If you appreciate quality construction, solid performance and you’re ready to go to places you never thought possible, I invite you to call us anytime, or email us with your questions. We’ll listen to your needs and help design the right technical poling skiff for you. Whether you're looking to chase red fish through the shallows of Mosquito Lagoon, poll the sand flats of Islamorada stalking bonefish, or running the beaches to pursue the Sliver King, come to our one-stop-shop where we custom design and rig your boat just the way you want it!

I look forward to building you a poling skiff that speaks to your passion.
