Heritage
Stabicraft Marine pioneered positive buoyancy™ boats, turning out the first rigid hulled aluminium pontoon boat from a back street workshop in Invercargill, New Zealand, in 1987. Later that year the company moved to the Bluff Road premises where they've been ever since.

The original Stabi design was a compilation of the wish list of local paua divers. They wanted an evolution of the traditional Rigid Hulled Inflatable boat - one that retained the RIB's superior buoyancy, stability on the water and ease of handling, but within a sturdier construction framework to make it even safer in rough waters.

And so began the development of a brand that was to set world-class standards in aluminium rigid buoyancy boat design and construction. Today Stabicraft Marine's standards are without equal of performance and safety. Precision build and thorough testing ensures Stabicraft's superiority.

At Stabicraft we're committed to thinking outside the square - so you can Adventure with Confidence.
