To provide the right balance between custom craftsmanship and efficient construction management, Summit Yachts chose Edgewater Boats in Edgewater, Florida to build the new Summit 35.

This location minimizes material transport costs and freight costs of finished boats within North America and Europe. More importantly it will bring the production of our two World Class IRC boats, the Summit 35 and the Summit 40 under one roof.

A little about Edgewater Boats:

It all began in 1992 with a handful of experienced and dedicated craftsmen who shared a powerful dream of creating a company that would design and build the strongest, safest and most reliable boats on the water. Today that dream is a reality in EdgeWater Power Boats.

While EdgeWater continues to maintain small-company agility, responsiveness and drive, its twelve-year partnership with the North Marine Group, whose cutting-edge technologies are found aboard everything from America’s Cup racing yachts to the space shuttle, has given them the technological and financial resources necessary to create the highly advanced product its customers demand.

Today, EdgeWater employs more than 100 people, in a 94,000 square foot, state-of-the-art facility that produces a limited number of uniquely hand-crafted, semi-custom boats each year. Additionally, its commercial division develops and builds specialized high-performance EdgeWaters for military, government and law enforcement applications.
