Crafted for the Offshore Elite
ABOUT US
OUR BOATS
Our Legacy
For decades, Bahama Boat Works has set the benchmark in custom offshore center console boat building. Founded by veteran mariner and master boat builder Scott Henley, Bahama was born from a relentless pursuit of excellence—first as Venture with Jupiter DNA, now reimagined as the pinnacle of offshore performance and luxury.
Every Bahama is a continuation of that legacy: resilient, refined, and ready to cross where others turn back.
why we do it
Our Philosophy
At Bahama Boat Works, every vessel is designed around a simple principle that ‘Absolutely Nothing Compares’. From the exacting tolerances of our hulls to the intuitive layout of every console and hatch, we design and build boats for those who know the difference. We don’t compromise, and we don’t build for the masses.
Each Bahama is crafted for owners who demand excellence in fit, finish, and fishability. We are guided by our founder, Scott Henley’s rigorous quality standards.
“I’m glad it’s here…I see the new technology he’s brought to this plant to make things more efficient”
– Scott Henley
HOW WE DO IT
Our STANDARDS
DESIGN & ENGINEERING
At Bahama Boat Works, every system is engineered for durability, reliability, and ease of service, not simply for ease of assembly. Each component is positioned with long-term maintenance in mind, ensuring it can be reached, serviced, or replaced without frustration. By designing from the perspective of the owner and technician alike, we achieve systems layouts that are logical, accessible, and built to perform beautifully for years to come.
DEPENDABLE PERFORMANCE
True performance starts with quality components. Every part aboard a Bahama is carefully selected for proven reliability, and when existing options fall short, we design and build our own. We don’t believe in cutting corners or letting cost dictate compromise. Instead, we invest in what ensures lasting strength and consistent performance—because dependability isn’t a feature, it’s a standard.
TRUSTED RELIABILITY
When thoughtful design meets proven components, the result is lasting reliability and effortless maintenance—confidence you can depend on no matter the distance or conditions offshore. Trust isn’t claimed; it’s earned. And the truest measure of ours comes from the owners who run Bahama boats every day. Their confidence is the ultimate proof of our craft.
WHERE IT BEGINS
Inside the Factory
Each Bahama is constructed in our Fort Pierce, Florida facility by skilled craftsmen using advanced materials and construction methods. Structural integrity, weight distribution, and hydrodynamic performance are not left to chance—they are engineered into every inch.
The result is a stout, fast, and enduring boat capable of exceeding 70 knots without sacrificing comfort or control.
“I just want to keep the good feeling Bahama has. The happy customers, the friendships, seeing people out enjoying the boats and just keeping it going, keeping the boats on the water.”
– Scott Henley
