Scout Boats was founded in 1989 by Steve Potts, an industry veteran who had previously worked for some of the leading boat manufacturers in the US. Potts saw an opportunity to build a company that would be dedicated to producing boats that pushed the boundaries of what was possible in terms of quality, design, and performance. He established the company in Summerville, South Carolina, where it remains to this day.
In the three decades since its inception, Scout Boats has gained a reputation for innovation and craftsmanship, building luxury, fishing and recreational boats that are highly sought-after by consumers. They produce a comprehensive range of boats, ranging from 17 feet to 53 feet lengths, all incorporating the latest boat-building technologies and equipment. Their designs are immediately recognisable, boasting elegant lines, superior hull designs, and exceptional attention to detail.
As of today, Scout Boats continues to lead the industry with its commitment to excellence and innovation. Despite its significant growth and expansion, Scout Boats remains true to its original ideals and maintains a strong commitment to both customer satisfaction and environmental sustainability. All of the company's products are built in a state-of-the-art manufacturing facility in Summerville, showcasing their commitment to sustainable practices and being at the frontline of technology. This adherence to quality and respect for environmental concerns has gained Scout Boats international acclaim and continues to situate them as a leading figure in the boat manufacturing industry.
