A very British history
Norman Fletcher built his first boat in 1950 in the West
Midlands and from that time, Fletcher Boats became the largest producer of
sports boats outside the United
States.
Totally fanatical about boats, Fletcher invested in
technology, research and design. It
seemed that at every boat show there was a new Fletcher replacing and improving
upon an existing model.
Fletcher boats sold out to Hornby in the 1980s and SBS
Trailers was awarded the exclusive contract to its supply trailers.
Boutique boats
Fletcher is one of the few mass production boat companies in
the UK. Built in Britain, almost
everything is produced in house or sourced locally, and repairs can be carried
out in the factory workshop. Fletcher
believes it offers something different to its customers. With focus quality, Fletcher tailors each boat
to customer’s requirements.
