Shoalwater Boats is a privately owned company based in Port O'Connor, Texas, led by owner Steve Bell. The company has built shallow-water fishing boats for over 40 years and remains independent rather than part of a larger boat group. Shoalwater specializes in catamaran-style and flats boats designed to run in extremely shallow water, and it has earned a loyal following among Texas and Gulf Coast fishing guides. Being a smaller, owner-run builder lets Shoalwater focus closely on build quality and on the shallow-water performance its boats are known for.
