ABOUT US.
Since 1995, River Boats have been proudly designed and manufactured in Norway - crafted with a commitment to quality, safety and sustainability. These award-winning boats feature a unique hybrid catamaran V-bottom hull, delivering excellent stability and ease of use. Produced from durable, impact-resistant polyethylene, River Boats are seaworthy vessels, offering exceptional longevity with minimal maintenance.

All River Boats are DNV approved - an added safety standard beyond the mandatory CE marking and both the River 350 and River 420 are classified in Category C, suitable for use along coastal waters.
River Boats is owned by Christoffer Haarbye and Reidar Gjølstad, industry veterans with extensive experience in fast boat and lifeboat development. The boats are manufactured by Rotostøp AS, a respected name in Norwegian production.
