Aquastar Boats, a prominent name in the boating world, established its roots in the Channel Islands in 1969, dedicating itself to crafting top-quality, ocean-going motor yachts. Founded by Arthur Scott, a marine expert with a profound respect for the sea, the firm specialises in robust and reliable crafts that maintain excellent performance even in adversity. Aquastar's reputation for building sturdy, all-weather boats characteristic of hard-chine semi-displacement hulls and excellent sea-keeping capability soon spread throughout Europe.
By the late 1980s, demand for Aquastar boats was on the rise, compelling the company to expand its operations. Relocating from Guernsey to a larger facility in St Sampson’s, it was during this period that Aquastar began using GRP hulls with traditional hand-made interiors which added a touch of elegance and sophistication to their maritime craft. This shift in materials and the preservation of precision allowed Aquastar to produce yachts that offered both luxury and reliability combined.
Today, Aquastar's main operations have shifted to the UK, at the South Coast facility in Milford Haven, Wales. Despite the change of location, the company remains true to Arthur Scott's original vision, providing reliable crafts designed to withstand tough maritime conditions. As of current, Aquastar continues to manufacture high-quality boats ranging from 32 to 70 feet, promising sophisticated design, comfort, and above all, safety for their boat owners globally.
