The Gale Marine Custom Airboat hull is built to your specifications. Our standard is 3/16″ 5086 aluminum bottom & sides. This makes for an extremely durable hull along with 7-11 full length stringers depending on size of boat, exceeding the industry standards. We use 3/8″ UHMW polymer on bottom and sides of our boats to absorb impact from the abuse we see on airboats used on ice. On our standard airboats, we have teamed up with Levitator Engines, as they provide the best reliability and warranty in the industry. If your custom application or desire exceeds the horsepower available through Levitator, we’ve teamed up with Wegner Automotive | The Industry Leader In LS and LT Engines for high horsepower custom builds. Depending on your airboating needs, we would be happy to assist in choosing the right Motor, Gear Box or Belt Drive, and Propeller combination.
Gale Marine's Custom Airboats
Custom Airboats
Gale Marine is home of the area’s finest custom airboats. We have proudly put our name on our products since 2012. To power these vessels, we developed an extremely reliable engine package built on the fuel-injected General Motors LS engine platform. In other words, this engine produces superior reliability and a very good horsepower-to-weight ratio. To transform that power into thrust that will efficiently and quietly power your craft, we have partnered with Ox Drive Reductions, Century Drive Systems, and Whirlwind Propellers as we believe they are ahead of the technology curve in the airboat industry.
Rescue Airboats
Gale Marine Rescue Airboats allow for a quick response to safely transport multiple people through challenging and dangerous situations.
Gale Marine is now offering Levitator Performance Airboat Engines with all custom airboat packages.
Many know Jake Tupper, owner and founder of Gale Marine, for his straight forward and honest approach.
He constantly strives to create the design of your dreams, with the durability you are looking for.
Each boat is individually made with attention to detail. We believe each customer deserves the boat they have dreamed of.
