Where do dreams come from?

From out of the fog and the deep waters off a rocky coastline.

From the inspiration of four centuries of tradition.

And from working in partnership with artisans who know that if something’s not exactly right,

it’s hopelessly wrong.

DON’T CHEAT ON YOUR DREAM.

Why buy a Foggcraft? There are many reasons to own

a Foggcraft, but let’s start with the materials. Foggcrafts are built with ¼" 5086 marine grade aluminum alloy. Aluminum alloy is what the pros all around the world use to build boats, the East coast is a bit behind the times. Aluminum is lightweight, strong, and easy to maintain. You can take a 10lb sledgehammer to the side of a Foggcraft and don’t have to worry about a thing, try that with a fiberglass or wooden boat!

Next Foggcrafts are not mass-produced, a large corporation does not own Fogg’s Boatworks, they are a family owned operation and they build every boat by hand. Fogg’s

Boatworks LLC can sit down with you and design your boat to your specifications while hitting the same price points as production boats.

Just because Foggcrafts are aluminum doesn’t mean they don’t have that classic Down East flare. Dennis Fogg, the owner and operator, along with his two sons, love the water and they take great pride in their craftsmanship and end product. With just the three of them building your boat you don’t have to worry about the many layers of larger operations. When you talk to one of them you are talking to the builder, designer, marketer, and sales person.

So before you buy your next boat make sure you come test-drive a Foggcraft.

We are carpenters, designers, machinists, mechanics, electricians, fabricators, riggers, painters, and brokers with our sights on the best outcome for boat and customer.

We design and build new yachts with both modern wood composite techniques and time honored traditional methods. We also restore vessels from yachting’s Golden Age and build replicas. We have modern daysailers constructed alongside robust historic vessels. The diversity, quality and efficiency of our work keeps it enjoyable and exciting.

We store and maintain a fleet of 50 yachts in thriving condition. At Rockport Marine, vessels in the storage fleet find a path to excellence. Many have been in our care for decades, undergoing major structural and mechanical work at different stages. Our goal in this side of the business is to make yacht ownership predictable. Our recent acquisition of David Jones Yacht Brokerage rounds out our service offerings.

We are as proud of our relationships as we are of the boats we care for and build. Seeing an owner through a satisfying project and seeing that yacht perform as desired is our standard for success.

SW Boatworks is located in Lamoine, nestled between Mount Desert Island, Ellsworth, and Downeast Maine.

During the past 17 years, Capt. Stewart Workman and his highly skilled crew have constructed custom sportsfishing vessels, commercial fishing boats, Coast Guard-approved passenger boats, law enforcement vessels, research vessels, and pleasure boats. Our experienced crews coordinate all aspects of the construction—from the initial layup to custom design, from hookups to electrical, from start to custom finish.

An exclusive builder and home of the Calvin Beal and Young Brothers boat designs, SW Boatworks chose to represent these classic boats. Each boat is unique and needs to exceed the expectations of each owner.

The Calvin Beal boat design shows stability, seaworthiness, and spaciousness. This boat is known for its handsome strong lines,

beam, and versatility for fishing and cruising. The Calvin Beal is proven by fishermen and enjoyed by yachtsmen.

The Young Brothers boat is designed for a unique experience—a lazy afternoon on the hook, racing across a sun-dappled sea, slipping off the deck shoes and relaxing, entertaining guests, or visiting exotic ports of call on an extended cruise. The Young Brothers lobster boat design is powered by a single inboard diesel engine, which drives the yacht to perform comfortably.

SW Boatworks believes in building more than just boats. We are known for our commitment to each boat, the statement it makes on the ocean and the owners it represents.
