Why Tough Boats?
With over four decades immersed in manufacturing, two of which were dedicated to the marine industry, I've honed a keen eye for identifying market gaps. And in this vast sea of opportunities, one deficiency stood out starkly: the absence of a reliable and affordable workboat tailored for contractors of all sizes. It was akin to the absence of an F-250 Super Duty truck in the realm of workboats- a reliable workhorse that any independent contractor or small company can afford. You will hear time and time again around our factory floor or at our booth at trade shows- "We are the pickup truck of the marine construction business"!
Driven by this realization, I embarked on a mission to craft the epitome of ruggedness and reliability in a workboat, enriched with a plethora of attachments and tools, yet maintaining affordability at its core. This endeavor stems from a passion for empowering contractors, regardless of scale, with the means to navigate waters efficiently and effectively while providing a safe and reliable platform in which to execute projects of all types. It's not merely about building boats; it's about empowering individuals and businesses to thrive in their endeavors with the right tools at their disposal. Tough Boats is the ultimate tool for your marine based business!

A quick word about our MDPE Pontoons-
No one shares my enthusiasm for foam-filled MDPE pontoons more than I do. They are the ultimate solution for workboats! MDPE, or Medium Density Polyethylene, is virtually indestructible. It defies sinking and remains impervious to the hazards of rocks and jagged shorelines. Maintenance is virtually nonexistent. What's more, MDPE boasts a carbon footprint five times lower than that of aluminum.
Traditional aluminum pontoons are prone to damage, as are fiberglass pontoons. A single encounter with a rock or a scrape against a jagged shoreline can spell disaster. Not so with MDPE. This material stands apart for pontoon construction, being both lightweight (even lighter than water), and durable (readily recyclable). Its inert nature means it remains unaffected by acids, rendering it truly indestructible.
That's why we proudly bear the name TOUGH BOATS. Feel free to put it to the test with a hammer, or better yet, a sledgehammer—it won't make a dent. Join us in embracing the unparalleled toughness and resilience of MDPE pontoons.
Thank You,
