John Karbott Boatbuilding

John M. Karbott is a boatbuilder who specializes in the custom construction and repair of fine wooden boats. His knowledge of the sea begins with over 30 years of commercial lobster fishing in wonderful wooden boats. His boatbuilding career is an extension of his commercial boat work in Plymouth, MA  where his spacious workshop can accommodate sizable craft requiring a substantial rebuild. 

Rather than offering just one or two particular boats, John custom builds what you want. He has experience in constructing many boats from simple flat-bottom skiffs to more elaborate, and elegant lapstrake, and carvel-planked rowing and sailing craft, using both traditional and modern methods, and materials.
