Life Proof Boats

Life Proof Boats constructs all of our vessels within the Bremerton Industrial Park, located in Washington State. We have expanded within three facilities and have approximately 40,000 square feet of total manufacturing. We utilize a dedicated facility for welding, a separate dedicated facility for all of our collar manufacturing & upholstery, and two facilities dedicated for system integrations.

Because our boats are used in the toughest of environments, they are built stronger. That is why we exclusively use 5086 H116 Grade Aluminum plate in all of our boats. A lot of other builders choose to use 5052 alloy aluminum because it can cost up to 20% less. But 5086 H116 is much stronger in a welded condition and more durable. Even our custom hull strake extrusions are made from 5086 alloy aluminum.

All of the parts used to build Life Proof Boats are cut on a CNC router machine. We choose CNC router cut parts over water jet or plasma cut parts because a router provides a more pure surface on the cut edge. Water or plasma machines often leave a very porous edge surface, which can lead to microvoids in the welding process.

All of our parts are also cut on a CNC router machine because of the higher quality surface edge provides. Water or plasma machines often leave a very porous edge surface, which can lead to micro voids in the welding process. With many of our competitors looking to build at the lowest cost, it often means they sacrifice quality in the materials they choose to use. We look at it differently. If quality is a pillar of your brand, then people will choose it for its known quality. Our quality is our difference and will always be a core to who we are. We have spent countless hours looking at materials and components to ensure our boats are built using the best industry available parts.

Before starting a new design we work through principles in naval architecture to ensure all our vessels have the correct structural design, proper LCG & VCG & TCG locations, and proper waterline location. We engineer all of the boat’s structural pieces to “egg crate” or interconnect. That is to ensure a perfect fit and add rigidity to the platforms. Every piece of aluminum in the boat is engineering to be used in a specific location for a specific function. Each part is purpose built.

Our employees are the best and brightest in the industry. We have assembled a team of people who are highly skilled and highly educated in what it takes to build a high quality product that will last for generations. Our boats are built tougher because they are driven tougher.

We choose to build our boats on a hull jig because it allows us to keep the hull plates extremely straight and true. The hull is the foundation that influences how the boat handles, drives, feels, and performs. A true hull shape is critical. Running longitudinally down the center of the boat, you will find two full height frames. These frames create one of the strongest known beam designs known to structural engineering; an I-Beam. This I-Beam design disperses the stresses from heavy slamming loads.
