A Builder You Can Count On
Much like the construction industry, the boat building industry is filled with manufacturer’s that over-promise their build times, budgets and abilities to get certifications. We are known in the industry for our upfront build schedule, on-time deliveries and solid products.
Whether you are a budding entrepreneur, experienced Captain, or already running a water-based business, purchasing a tour boat can be a great investment.

Experts Behind Every Vessel
The Sculpin Marine team includes dedicated professionals, from our licensed naval architect to highly skilled aluminum fabricators and experienced assemblymen.

Precision Crafted In-House
Our two manufacturing facilities span 22,000 square feet, with a boat yard in between. With state-of-the-art equipment and a streamlined production process, we construct our vessels from the ground up, guaranteeing superior craftsmanship and efficient turnaround times. This allows us to maintain strict quality control at every stage, ensuring each vessel meets our exacting standards before it hits the water.
SCULPIN MARINE ORIGINS
From Cycleboats to Sculpin Marine
In 2012, we introduced the first-ever Coast Guard-certified human-power tour boat, launching our journey as Cascade Cycleboats. Since then, we have grown and evolved to meet the needs of tour operators nationwide. In 2020, we rebranded as Sculpin Marine to expand our offerings beyond pedal-powered boats and into a diverse range of commercial pontoon vessels.
