Custom Boats and Boat Builders
Custom boats cost more but they are unique Most boats are built one an assembly line as this is the most efficient way to do it. The major benefit of assembly line production for companies is it keep the cost of the boats down. However it does make them all pretty much the same boat. Sure, there are a limited number of options but the options are, again, limited by using the assembly line process.
Now lets get out of the production boat area and enter the buying or viewing custom built boats. You can get several different ways a custom build boat is done. There are also amateurs building their own boats. Probably because that is the cheapest way to getting exactly what you want in a boat. If you don't want to go to all the trouble of building your own boat the next step up is semi custom water craft.
Semi custom boats are generally put together by small or a few mid size shops but still out of one set of molds. The builders do allow the owner to pick out everything else. This is the second cheapest method.
A custom built or true one of a kind boat is designed from scratch and built the same way. Usually for just one customer who probably has quite a few extra bucks to spend as custom built is very expensive.
Don't make the decision yet to buy a custom boat. Give the used boat markets another look because even people with custom made boats sell them now and then. You may find one that was designed the same way you would have designed it and it will be cheaper than getting a one of a kind boat made new.
This is a less expensive way because you won't be paying a custom boat builder to design and build your boat from scratch. That way you still get a one of a kind custom built boat. Just keep looking until you find one that meets your wants.
