Piper Boats

We are a family business. We always have been – since we began following our own dream and building beautiful boats and Dutch barges in 1969.

We take immense pride in a job well done with every Dutch Barge. And because you’re expecting the best, we only use the best. The best raw materials; we only use Lloyds Grade A ship building steel for our Dutch Barges at our 17,000 sq ft custom-built manufacturing facility.

The best techniques employed by all our skilled Dutch Barge builders– whether innovative or time-proven. And the best people. Because we’ve put together a team of real craftspeople: designers, fabricators, welders, fitters,

electricians, engineers, joiners and painters who combine incredible skill with real care and attention to the finest detail.

It’s a team who truly care about the job they do – from the first precision pass with the plasma cutter to the last sleek coat of varnish (after the two coats of primer, two undercoats and three coats of gloss of course)
