Restoration
LO Boat has been providing award-winning restorations for more than 25 years. We've also been judging ACBS events for more than 25 years. As judges for the International club and down at Tahoe, we know what to look for and we know how to provide it in a restoration. If you’re not interested in a “showboat” we're happy to provide you with a beautiful, safe and reliable runabout.
Preservation
At LO Boat, we've developed proprietary techniques-formulated over years of practical application-which can give your original boat a whole new lease on life. Gratefully, the ACBS appreciates and recognizes the importance of preservation, having created a new competitive category for "preserved" boats. These boats receive greater leniency for flaws in the wood, original upholstery, hardware etc. We have done several award-winning preservations and actually enjoy the challenge that these projects provide. Of course, it is much easier to replace every piece of wood, but saving the old material is both the most challenging and the most rewarding method.
Care and Maintenance
LO Boat is dedicated to keeping your woody running well and looking great. Whether you’re just around the block or a full state away, we can help you with the basics to keep every boat ride enjoyable.
Transportation
LO Boat is outfitted to transport your boat anywhere in the continental US and Canada. We have a heavy duty truck for pulling and a shop trailer dedicated to moving boats. We also do launching and retrieving on request. We'll gladly take your boat to the show if you’d like.
Survey and Inspection
LO Boat has looked at hundreds of boats over the years. Before you purchase your next boat, we strongly encourage you to have a professional (and reputable) restorer look it over. We can do this for you, or we can make a referral, depending on where the boat is located. Please don’t overlook this singular, important step.
