A Piece To Pass Down Through Generations

Crafted With Heart For A Life Well Spent.

Exquisite Design

Every piece is a one of a kind creation. From digital sketch to custom chosen wood to fiberglass casing, aesthetics and function are woven to craft a work of art that is mantle worthy and nature ready.

Delivered To Your Doorstep

No shipping cost required. My hassle-free delivery process allows you to receive your unique order straight to your doorstep anywhere in the U.S. while giving me an excuse to take a road trip. I say that’s a win-win! (Excludes special circumstances.)

Sustainably Harvested Wood

I strive to use sustainably sourced wood in my projects whenever possible and hope to soon be using 100% recycled wood in every design. Wood types include Western red cedar, Alaskan yellow cedar, purple heart, mahogany, and walnut.

 

Available Styles
 

 

Kayak

Leave your worries on the shore and take a bliss filled ride out on the open water in your custom crafted kayak. Good for toning the arms, deep contemplation, and making friends with strangers who can’t help but ask, “Where did you get that gorgeous kayak?”

Paddle Board

While everyone else will be drifting by on generic plastic boards, you’ll be gliding across the water on a piece of art that gains speed with ease. With a sturdy design and fully water proof coating, you can push off with confidence for both a meditative ride and a hearty workout.

Surf Board

Wooden surfboards are stronger, more environmentally friendly, and allow you to connect with the elements in a wholesome and enriching way. And with a stunner like this, you won’t be just catching waves. You’ll be making them.

 
 

Enjoy the Outdoors in Style

There’s no better feeling than getting out on the water with a craft you trust and love. That’s why Ventura Boat Works marries functional design with aesthetic craftsmanship to produce a masterpiece that seamlessly integrates with your natural environment.

Philosophy

Quality — Zen — Connection

Through years of experience I’ve honed my skills in producing quality work with a zen-like approach. My greatest goal is to create pieces that inspire a deeper connection with your natural surroundings and with the people you happen to paddle by on your journey.
