Echo Lake Wooden Boats

Classic Boats, Handmade in Maine

Using vintage boatbuilding techniques, coupled with modern materials and precision, Echo Lake Wooden Boats crafts some of the finest water-going vessels available.

Welcome

We build classic, proven designs by hand in our Fayette, Maine, boatbuilding shop. Each of our vessels is built from scratch – and we only build one at a time, so we're always completely focused on the craft at hand.

Our construction methods are rooted in traditional boatbuilding techniques which date back generations. Each rail and rib is expertly cut from top-quality lumber, then trimmed by hand to fit perfectly into place.

Once each craft is complete, we paint and varnish it (custom colors and finishes are available), then test it on pristine Echo Lake to make sure it's excellent.

We have several complete vessels available for purchase now. We also still have some availability for custom orders for the 2024 season. For more information, or to set an appointment to inspect the vessels, please drop us a line using the button below.

How We Build Our Boats

Our construction process stems from a century-old Maine boatbuilding tradition, and each of our boats takes a couple hundred hours to complete. After all, good things take time.
