Why Stuart

How we build.

Resin-infused, wood-free hulls with ABYC tinned-copper wiring and C-Zone digital switching.

01
SBW The Hull

The rounded bilge.
A softer ride offshore.

Deep-V hulls tend to slam. Our rounded bilge keeps more hull in the water, so the boat runs flatter, planes with less bow rise, and stays more comfortable when seas pick up.

Less bow rise on plane.Maintain proper running attitude even as you back off the throttle in worsening seas.
Soft ride for its size.More hull in the water gives a steadier ride.
SBW Construction

No wood anywhere.
No wood. Resin-infused.

Resin-infused, hand-laid, cored throughout. ABYC tinned-copper wiring. C-Zone digital switching with manual backup. Hatch gutters that drain overboard, not into the bilge.

Resin-infused hull.6× stronger than hand-laminated construction. Closed-cell foam coring in hullside, deck, and console.
Tinned copper wiring.Marine-grade, ABYC standards. Built for the life of the boat.

This boat was purchased by Joe Sebring (my boat partner) for use as a tender to our Hatteras just a few months ago. […] WHAT A FANTASTIC BOAT!
