About Us
The "Why" behind DryFly™ Float Boats
About the Company...

Dry Fly Float Boat L.L.C. was founded in 1998. Our company combines the skills and experience of uniquely talented individuals with many years of experience in business and industry. Our goal is not to become the worlds largest manufacturers of float boats -- only the Best!

A Dry Fly Float Boat starts with a basic design.  From there, if desired, it is customized to not only fit your purpose, but your physical characteristics.  Customers make suggestions, which we address as positive challenges.  The result is a boat that will live up to if not surpass your expectations.

We not only sell and service great products -- we hand craft and assemble them ourselves.

We choose to sell our products direct, avoiding the costs and delays associated with "middlemen". When you call, fax, or e-mail us, you're actually in contact with the people who build the boats -- and we'll answer your questions in a direct and timely manner... Personally.

Why did we choose to make float boats?

Simply... We share a love for the outdoors and a deep respect for our rivers, lakes, wildlife and natural resources. While our manufacturing techniques are designed to produce a high-quality, hand-crafted product at a competitive price -- our manufacturing operations remain friendly to the environment.

If you are in the market for this truly unique type of watercraft, we invite you to compare our quality and value, as well as price. We'd like to add you to our growing list of satisified customers

What exactly is a "float boat"?

Float tubes have been around for many years, with the original models being little more than a canvas covered innertube. Some later models were made from "U" shaped tubes for easier entry and exit. With a Float Tube, usually waders are worn and the lower half of the body is submerged in the water.. Propulsion in a float tube comes from kicking with swim fins attached to your feet, which can be very slow and tiring -- especially in windy conditions.

Float "boats" came along several years later, and offer several important advantages.  First, the seat on a boat is suspended between two pontoons above the water -- so getting your legs wet is optional. Secondly, sitting higher is also a distinct advantage in seeing objects both above and below the water and provides for easier casting. Fixed oars provide propulsion for float boats making them very light and maneuverable on rivers, as well as lakes.

One ride on a DryFly float boat and you'll be convinced this is the most comfortable. quiet, stable, and safe way to float a river or lake for fly fishing, river running, photography, sight seeing, hunting, or just plain fun!

What makes our boats unique?

At first glance DryFly float boats look much the same as other products on the market....until you look at our unique features.

Pontoon and frame construction:

  • A tough coated nylon pontoon shell with twin urethane bladders.
  • Each pontoon contains two independent full size urethane bladders with separate valves, meaning that outer punctures won't keep you from staying afloat. Just inflate the adjoining bladder and complete your float!
  • The frame is constructed of aircraft grade square aluminum tubing, making it stiffer and stronger than any competitor's round tubing. We even guarantee it for life!
  • There are absolutely no welds on our frames. Extruded aluminum assemblies are used for lifetime service.  Stainless steel fasteners are used for assembly.
  • When it's time to pack up there are no tools required.  Nothing to loose, jam or break when you're done.
  • It's compact size take up very little space.  Transport your boat easily in a vehicle or even as check-on airline baggage!
