Sea Otter Workboats
All of our workboats are made from aluminium alloy, either 5083
or Sealium depending on use. Using this alloy gives our workboats
the longevity and economical cost of ownership demanded of modern
workboats. The hulls do not need painting so there are no annual
costs to keep your boats looking smart, just anti-foul below the
waterline.
All workboats we manufacture tend to be individually built and
so this page is only intended to act as a brief introduction to
what we can do.
As well as our existing boats, we can build anything in alloy
that floats with a maximum possible length of 15 metres x 4 metres
beam. If you have an existing drawing we would be happy to quote
for your workboat project. For new design and build we have access
to a naval architect with an impeccable workboat pedigree. For
him to become involved, even at the quotation stage, money must
change hands.
Future Projects
During 2006, we plan to build a 30' river cruiser/workboat and
a 40' big brother of this boat. The 30' boat will be category
C and capable of modest inshore passages. It will have up to 60
hp.
The 40' big brother version of this boat will have an option of
drive. You will have the option of either shaft of jet, whichever
is desired. It will also have up to twin x 250 hp.

7 metre launch. Up to 50 hp. Deceptively quick, but not primarily
designed as a quick boat. Also very stable.
6 metre launch. Up to 50 hp.
5 metre workboat. Very beamy and stable. Up to 30 hp.
Workpunt. Individually made and so can be any size. Our punts, although
initially expensive, will outlast anyone else's in spades.
