1. The lightest drift boat is the easiest to row.

Boulder Boat Works welded polymer hulls are half the weight (~170 lbs) of the hull of afiberglass boat (330 – 350 lbs) thanks to a superior manufacturing technology (which we’ll discuss in just a moment)… Spend 10 minutes behind the oars of a Boulder Boat Works, and you’ll feel the difference in your shoulders.

As pro guide Ryan Kelly says: “I rowed a Boulder Boat Works one time and knew this was the boat for me…This will add years to my guide career.”
2. Better handling and responsiveness means smarter fishing.

The protruding chines – the edges on bottom of the boat – allow you to cut through the water in a way that a boat without a pronounced chine simply can’t achieve. See, fiberglass boats are molded with no edge…like an old, detuned snow ski. Compare that to the sharp edges of a parabolic ski and you’ll understand why Boulder Boat Works handle better than anything on the water.

“Hands down the easiest boat to row on the river. Not to mention it is also the most durable.” Joel Thompson
3. Durability means more time on the water, and savings on maintenance costs.


Our boats draft up to 40% less water at the chine allowing us to float water that other drift boats simply cannot. Unlike heavy drift boats that use fiberglass construction, Boulder Boat Works uses technologically advanced materials and features a hull made of high-density hand welded polyethylene. Fiberglass breaks down and consistently requires maintenance. Polymer is much slicker on rocks… going up and and right over the top, whereas fiberglass sticks and requires time consuming and expensive repairs. That’s what allows Boulder Boat Works to offer a lifetime guarantee on our hulls. If your hull ever has a failure that results from normal use and not a car accident – get your boat to our shop and we will take care of it – no questions asked.

“With this boat’s toughness, I was able to fish in water conditions that the other guides could not.” -Jacob Ott
4. More space means more comfort for your friends and family.

Fiberglass boats have longitudinal interior storage that steal up to 30% of your interior rowers space… but here’s what they don’t tell you. They’re not put there for storage: they’re in your way for the boat’s structural integrity. It’s what prevents their boat from folding up like a taco when the water get’s rough. It’s because fiberglass boats don’t have a patented 24 rib reinforced sub floor like a Boulder Boat Works hull. Its structural integrity comes from the 24 I-beams in your hull – lighter, stronger, and more spacious – who knew?

When you’re rowing your family and your gear, 30% more workspace makes a huge difference for a day or a week of fun and adventure on the water.

In the words of pro guide Andrew Tashie: “Extremely comfortable and…it eats rocks for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. This is without a doubt the boat I have been searching for.”
5. They’re flat-out beautiful, blending classic lines with modern technology.

Boulder Boat Works makes the best looking boat on the water by using only the finest quality materials and hand crafting every boat in Colorado.
