Evolution Boats is family owned and operated.
Starting with an idea to build his dream Boat, Paul aka. “Junga”, with Melinda’s help built Evolution Boats into what we see today.
Evolution Boats was a natural progression for Junga. A qualified shipwright with two decades of experience building boats for another well–known Australian boat manufacturer. The first Evolution model, the 550; was built in his garage at home!
Design Meets Fishability
The Evolution Boats brand quickly became synonymous with excellence, safety, stability and quality. Popular with Victorian boaters from the outset, Evolution was turning the heads of serious boaters all around the country. Hardcore fishing boats are built for hardcore anglers… and there are even bigger things to come.
Hand Laid Construction
There are no shortcuts to building an Evolution, all fibreglass is hand–laid for ultimate hull strength.
Australian Made
All Evolution Boats are made in Australia, using materials sourced from Australian-based companies.
Stability & Handling
Wide reverse chines and planning plank means your Evolution is a stable fishing platform.
30+ years of marine manufacturing experience
Paul started his boat-building career as a 17-year-old apprentice building plate aluminium boats then progressing to fibreglass boats where he honed his talents in designing the ultimate fishing boat. See the fibreglass boat-building process first-hand.
From the garage at home to the factory
The idea of building the ultimate fishing weapon began in the garage where the plans for the first boat are displayed on the garage wall. Once a few boats were built it became apparent a bigger space was needed. We then moved into the complex we can be found in today. Come visit the factory for a tour and we will show you our manufacturing process.
