Custom Pilot Boats and Commercial Vessels
Since 1946, Breaux’s Bay Craft has been a leader in designing and building custom aluminum boats for offshore, commercial, and marine industries. Specializing in pilot boats, crew boats, and passenger vessels, we deliver unmatched craftsmanship and quality to meet your mission’s needs.
75 Years of Excellence in Custom Aluminum Boat Building
Founded by Roy Breaux Sr. in 1946, Breaux’s Bay Craft has been a pioneer in the aluminum boat industry, delivering custom-built vessels that set the standard for durability and performance. In the 1950s, Breaux’s Bay Craft revolutionized offshore boating with the introduction of the Inverted V hull design, an innovative approach that offered superior stability and smoother rides in rough waters.
Today, we carry on this legacy with the New Generation Inverted Deep V hull, a design created to further enhance stability, speed, and fuel efficiency in modern vessels. Whether it’s a pilot boat, crew boat, or commercial vessel, Breaux’s custom aluminum boats are crafted to excel in the toughest maritime conditions.
