History

This year marks the 100th anniversary of our company crafting the best boats on the waters of the world. As we embark on celebrating this monumental achievement, we’re proud to share the rich history and story of how we got here.

From our modest beginnings as the Florida Variety Boat Company to the award-winning Correct Craft® and Nautique products that you know and love, we’ve been a part of countless world-class performances and family memories along the way. We’re proud that our company has been woven into the fabric of the watersports world for a century in the making, and we’ve done so by pushing the industry forward and forging new ground in marine innovation. We’re even more pleased to share those accomplishments with you, and we hope that you enjoy this celebration of our journey.
