Ellis Boats was founded in the early 1900s, because fishing and captaining boats along the coast of Maine during this period of time was quite popular, especially in the summer. Ralph Ellis made his living fishing and captaining before he began building his own custom boats. Ralph's life turned around when he met a friend that wanted to build a boat but did not have the space. Ralph had the space, but no knowledge about building a boat. They combined Raymond Bunker's boat building know-how with Ralph Ellis' workshop space, and a partnership was culminated that lasted for more than 30 years.

Bunker and Ellis founded Ellis Boats in 1945, and boating enthusiasts from all over the world are still turning to this innovative company for some of the greatest boats ever to hit the sea. The experienced service department can upgrade and refurbish any boat, or offer you one of their custom line of boats in order to suit your lifestyle. Ellis Boats is very well known for their innovations, such as seat backs that can face in either direction, forward and aft. Seats are also capable of moving up and down with a mere flip of a switch located along the sidearm. Ellis Boats sidekicks double as backup engines, so if your main engine fails, you can still get home. Ellis Boats have also adopted patented development of Integrated Exhaust Hull Structure or IEHS.
