Welcome to Montana Boatbuilders, Inc.

We build high quality boats using wood and composite construction. Specializing in river dories, we also build duck hunting boats, jet boats, still water pulling boats, and will happily take on anything you can dream up from canoes to sailboats. The common theme of our custom projects is quality – based on the traditions of wooden boatbuilding and the opportunities of new technology.

We are also proud to offer some of our designs in both plans and kits, and we carry all the building materials, hardware and accessories to get them built and in the water.

News: The Kingfisher kit is now available.

The Kingfisher is a full 16' straight line hull with 17' side panels. With three pedestals, full length, straight rod holders and tons of dry storage it is the King of do-it-yourself drift boat kits.

Designed with the low rocker hull of our custom Recurve boat, the Kingfisher kit comes with all the precision pre-cut parts for the hull and interior, level floor and pedestals, full epoxy and fiberglass kit stainless fasteners, ash oars and oarlocks. You decide the optional seat type, plastic or wooden swivel kits; plastic or wooden hatch kits and traditional wood or honeycomb Kelvar bottom.

Check out the kit options page and the Kingfisher Kit page for more info.

More news: Project Healing Waters Fly Fishing is building a drift boat this winter! With plans and kit materials donated by Montana Boatbuilders, as well as wood and other materials from Allied Veneers and System Three Resins, US Distributing and Sawyer Oars, Walter Reed military veterans, our wounded warriors, will be assembling a Freestone Skiff modified for the use of wounded Veterans. The skiff will be built in donated space at the Armed Forces Retirement Home. Assembly began in early January, and the completed boat will be ready for dedication in April.
