From family days to fishing grounds

From family days to fishing grounds

Aluminium Plate Boats you can fish offshore in, tow the kids behind and sleep the family in, all under $150k. We couldn't find one, so we engineered one.

Stable, versatile and built for Australian conditions. Whether you’re chasing fish offshore, exploring the coastline, or spending the day on the water with family. Swellcraft is ready for whatever the day brings.

Built overseas. Finished and backed here at home.

We'll be upfront: our hulls are built in China. We chose that on purpose. It's how we can put a properly built plate boat in your driveway for under $150,000 without cutting corners on the parts that matter.

We chose our manufacturer carefully. They're ISO 9001 certified and build plate boats for commercial and government customers, including patrol vessels for customs and police. Every hull is 5083 marine-grade aluminium with a 6mm bottom plate and pulse-MIG welds. Under the floor are sealed, foam-filled compartments, which add buoyancy and make the ride quieter.

Before a hull leaves the factory, it's checked against our standards: welds, plate thickness, finish and fit. We inspect in person again, and if it isn’t up to our high standards, we will send it back.

Once it lands in Australia, it's ours. Our local team fits your trailer, engine and electronics, tests everything on the water and hands it over ready to go. We're a family business, not a faceless dealer, so you'll still be able to reach us long after you drive away.

Why Swellcraft…

We’re a young family from the South Coast, NSW who wanted a boat all families could afford to be able to get out on the water and make memories in. We price them honestly, we fit them out with premium products, we engineer for safety and comfort and keep it in budget.

Fish offshore at dawn, pick the wife & kids up at 10am, explore the region with lunch onboard, swim and tow all afternoon, dock up at the wharf for dinner. The dream day, all on one boat.
