Light, Nimble, and Built for Hard-to-Reach Jobs
The TOUGH20™ is the ultimate compact workboat engineered for operators who need strength, efficiency, and mobility in tight environments. Measuring in at 20 feet, this vessel is perfectly suited for navigating narrow canals, shallow waterways, and remote job sites where larger boats can’t go. Its lightweight yet rugged build makes it easy to tow on a standard trailer and quick to deploy, saving time and money on every operation.
Whether you’re pushing, pulling, hauling, or simply reaching places others can’t, the TOUGH20™ is your dependable partner in the field. Built to thrive where conditions are toughest, it brings professional-grade capability to a compact footprint—proving that sometimes the smallest boat gets the biggest job done.
Meet our most-requested platform: the TOUGH25, a 25-ft, triple-hull (tri-toon) workboat built to thrive where other boats quit. Its foam-filled, roto-molded MDPE hull modules paired with a heavy-gauge, marine-grade aluminum deck and structure make it indestructible, unsinkable, and low-maintenance.
The TOUGH36™ "BIG BOY" is a 36-ft, triple workboat built to carry bigger equipment—pile drivers, cranes, and heavy loads—and to thrive where other boats quit. Its foam-filled, roto-molded MDPE pontoons and heavy-gauge, marine-grade aluminum deck/structure make it indestructible, unsinkable, and low-maintenance, delivering rock-solid stability, massive deck utility, and confident maneuverability around barges, bridges, and piers—
the best value in a heavy-duty workboat.
